[QUOTE="TxPhred, post: 2823997, member: 56833"] I watched the Cortina - Speedy video as well, and my take was, the consistent ignition a new spring provides is very critical to accuracy. Equally important is to eliminate the ¨wavy¨ effect of the spring which some springs have. This is eliminated by have springs with the correct ID to the firing pin OD. This will keep the spring from being wavy and rubbing on the bolt barrel. Lube was also discussed, IIRC - grease not oil. Now, with that said and at the risk of facing the ire of those who would disagree, Speedy and Cortina are very successful BR and F Class competitors with proven backgrounds, whom are looking for tenths and less than tenths of improvements in accuracy. Firing Springs are not high dollar and seem to be an easy fix if done as suggested by two very good shooters and rifle builders. Good luck and God Bless. [/QUOTE]
