[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1792942, member: 2736"] Thanks.o_O All i can tell you is what I was taught, that it should be for all length bolts/actions. The minimum firing spring pressure "cocked" should be 28 Pounds to effect a good ignition and 30 pounds for a max I have seen them a bit higher to improve lock time but they are notorious for piercing primer cups on many types of primers. If you spring tension is light, you can add a washer to the firing pin spring and increase it, but don't add to much or you will get spring bind and then it will not work correctly. That's all I know about it J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
