Reduced tension trigger spring for Rem 700

[Sundown]

What are the specs on a reduce tension compression spring for Rem 700 trigger...I use to buy these from Hollands but don't think they sell anymore. The stock trigger spring is about 6 lbs.

Holland still sells them...just bought a couple two weeks ago. -Al

I used to trim Bic cigarette lighter springs for my Remmies.

I slide the trigger return/poundage spring on a allen wrench shaft then grind and polish the outer diameter of the spring. I also do this to the bolts ejector spring. Never had a spring latter fail doing this.

Thanks for the responses...I'll contact Hollands or try PRR's advice.
Thanks again

Midway stocks the Holland spring kit which includes a nicer bolt stop spring. -Al

Sent for a reduced tension compression spring from Hollands. I installed it...not as reduced as previous springs I bought from him.

remove 1/4 to 1/2 turn at a time. It takes a while to get what you want, but you can't put what you remove back on
