[QUOTE="cornchuck, post: 1056107, member: 20220"] I have a Remington 700P that I bought new in 08'. I have always complained about the heavy bolt throw even when I dry fire the gun on a empty chamber . When I take the firing out of the bolt shroud to set the head spacing of my full length sizing die and put the bolt back in the the receiver, there is no resistance at all. I do think that the spring is binding in the bolt shroud. So I'm thinking about switching the firing pin spring to an aftermarket spring. But don't know which one to go with. Go with a Tubb spring, Gre-Tan spring, or one from PTG. Which one should I go with? I also noticed that with Gre-Tan, I can get a aluminum firing pin with a steel striker with the spring too. Is this also a good option to go with? What do you think? I would like hear what you have to say. Jason [/QUOTE]
