My 870 with 6 rd. tube is loaded with 5 rds, chamber empty. It stays loaded in that condition for ever. The spring is compressed enough with 5 rds. If I load six, that compresses about 5" of spring down to about 2.5". How long before the spring weakens if fully loaded?

If it was designed for 6, then it shouldn't weaken with constant compression.
