Hey guys I have a Savage Axis 2 that is light striking primers about 50% of the time. I want to permanently address this issue and be done with it. I saw where one guy said he upgraded his firing pin setup to the old style full length spring. Is that possible? If so would I use a LONG ACTION 110 firing pin? Would you also need to change the bolt handle and cocking piece? While I love Savage the Post 2018 firing pin design is not good, I have fixed the issue in the past by ordering a new spring but this will be the third rifle with the issue and I am growing tired of it. Any real world experience on this issue would be welcomed. Thanks!

The really funny thing is it works fine with my Lapua small primer brass (mostly) but the issue raises its ugly head when I try to shoot Peterson Large Primer brass. Makes little sense to me...

FYI: This is not a headspace issue, I built the rifle and the headspace is tight. It is also not a "drag" issue, the rifle worked perfectly until it didn't.
