Hi All,
My Dad willed me his Savage 340B in .22 Hornet. It belonged to my Mom's Dad before him. Anyways, it hadn't been cleaned in years so I removed the action and barrel from the stock. A quick rinse with Hoppe's was all it took. I have a question about the orientation of the sear spring. It's in place but doesn't seem to do anything. It's not tensioned in any way so before I take it apart to try and figure it out myself, I thought I would ask for some help here. I have several parts schematics but none are of any help. Can anyone tell me how it's supposed to be located in relation to the sear?

Thanks!

John
