BAT B firing pin spring?

Anyone know of an alternative BAT B firing pin spring that's a tad bit heavier than what BAT sells? Looks like they only sell one version now for .280 pins.
 
Do you know what weight spring you have now? When I spoke with Daryl at the Super Shoot he said they had started using heavier springs in there actions in the past year or two. I think the new standard spring is 28 lb, but don’t quote me on that. If your action or spring is older than that, the new spring they offer is likely heavier than what you have now. He did tell me they still have the original B/DS weight springs being used in one of their repeater actions. He said if I wanted to go with the lighter spring I could order one via phone call.
 
May I ask why a tad bit heavier is needed ? Thanks
I was under the assumption when they just went to offering one spring, that it was a lighter version. I checked mine with the good old bathroom scale and it's 26 27 lb. I'm good. Just been struggling with year long random flyers and been working on firecontrol improvements. I think I'm good on spring.

When I changed FP springs, I had to go back and test primers, primer depth and neck tension, to reduce fliers.
I still get them but not likely ignition related.
