The way I understood it is that the 300 shock is stiffer than the 250 and 500 but fits those bikes just fine. I don’t think my issue is with the spring rate but the valving. I have mine set right in the middle (3) and have too much sag but the ride isn’t so jarring. I can set it on the 4th stiffest setting and grt good sag (around 35mm) but I may as well bolt a 2x4 on my bike as it beats me to death lol.
Even on the middle setting, the shock will buck the back of my bike up going over a moderate sized bump.
