Where did you get your lighter spring from? I called our local gunsmith and he wants $100 for me to bring my rifle in and cut part of the spring and then polish everything up for me and maybe alter the sear. I had just left him a message that I just needed a lighter spring and I would put it in myself, but of course he wants to make money I assume. I also called Brownells and they don't have a spring neither. Waiting for MidwayUSA to get back to me.
Try your local Ace Hardware. They have springs of similar size, but the coils are thinner and provide a lighter pull weight, when cut to the appropriate length and installed. I can't remember, but I believe the ones I buy are 1/4" and the coil wire diameter is .023". Cut to about 1 1/4" or there abouts and try it. The springs at Ace are like 2" or 3" long and you can cut to the desired length.

This is an option:

Sorry, but that is not his best option.
