what creates stainless steel 304 wire spring back is it tensile being too high or chemical composition?

Are you talking about spring back in forming?
If so then it is likely that you are forming it wrong, not enough over-bend.
It is easy enough to check the tensile strength.

The operator over bends just slightly to mitigate spring back, it depends as Ed said tensile strength or equivalent hardness. .it has to be developed to obtain correct dimensions.

If you are refering to wire, it is most likely cold drawn and easily in the 1/2 hard or higher condition and a very high yield strength. It cannot readily be additionally cold formed.

Hard SS wire is regularly formed on various spring forming machines.
If you are accustom to forming steel spring wire the SS will have more spring back.

Additionally just add to Ed's comment.
It also depends on the geometry of the component. And how it is manufactured.

And the heat treat of the wire. Use annealed wire if you want less spring back.
