Light primer strikes

Failure to ignite for a Savage 12 is apparently a very common issue caused by weak firing pin springs. Don’t neglect the other possible root causes, but once you have eliminated them, check the firing pin spring.

I know this is an old thread, but I am wondering what effect the heavier spring had on the trigger pull.

Negligible effect on the trigger pull, but you can tell in the cocking torque.
