Tubb springs

[bingo1010]

what is everyones thoughts on the tubb springs for the rem action? i recently put one in my long action but noticed that it drags on the inside of the bolt body. i have read that this is a bad thing....?? for those that use them, do you feel that there is any advantage over the oem part other than the advertised reduced lock time?

Bingo,

I've used them and never had an issue with any sort of dragging. Possible that there was a mismarked or mislabeled part that made it into the packaging? Dragging and reduced lock time are two things that just don't go together; there's something wrong there. I'd give David a call.

I used one for a while but I had the same problem. I removed it and went back to my OEM spring. never noticed a difference. I don't know if it will cause a problem but I decided to just leave it alone... Hope that helps.

Me too; installed a Tubb spring on M700 short action, it dragged, I returned it to Midway and went back to the OEM spring. What experience have others had with the Holland or others?

Could they have been for a long action, instead of short action?

Not unless the package was mis-marked
