Is it OK to leave FX magazines loaded?

[Maineiac]

I've been trying to catch a squirrel messing with my bird feeder so I've been leaving a magazine loaded and ready to go.

Is leaving the mag loaded going to loosen the spring over time and cause my mag to fail early?

Leave them loaded. no problem.
Its a fairly long spring, it have tension all the way to the last pellet. so its always under an amount of load.
I pretty much load the magazine when finished using it, and stuff a full mag in the FX next time im shooting, dont want to have to load the mag if I see a opportunity to use the FX unexpectedly. have not had any problems.

If I don't shoot a whole mag I don't bother to unload it. My Streamline is over a year old and the mags are working just fine.
