Worked well. Did have to re-adjust my Timmy trigger.

I used a dremel with some fine valve lapping compound on the felt attachments, it makes more of a mess but does the job in short order.

Anyone else have any luck with trimming 1.5 coils of the firing pin spring. Will this work ok with mil primers?

This was a great DIY project for sure! This greatly improved the feel of my 700, and now i will be doing my hunting rifles as well. Thanks for sharing!

in all my ignorance, I'm not a fan of cutting coils on any OEM spring, even more if I don't have buyed first some OEM replacement springs _
it would be better, on my book, find and try first some spring with slightly thinner coils , but of the same overall lenght, if available _
about my 700, I've mounted a Tubb spring as soon as possible, but maybe am me..._
