Anyone swapped their rod for a tungsten rod, the one that is supposed to be several times heavier and allow for more control and faster double-tap who can either vouch for it or offer up wisdom otherwise? XD45 Tactical, btw

i bought a tungsten off the ee a few years ago andf am very happy w/it.
both my xd tacs have tungsten so i have nothing to compare it to but they stay on point for me.
the seller complained it was too heavy for all day carry; mags full of 230 is going to be heavy!

I was looking for my info on what the factory hollow rod weighs and couldn't find it, but I think I remember it at 1.2 oz.  I know a solid stainless rod weighs about 2.2 oz so that puts a tungsten rod at about 4.7 oz.
