    As always Fred, your input is high value as is Darkker's. That phenomena to me would indicate the possibility that the spring design/metallurgy/heat treat was less than ideal. Every time I rebuild a bolt I clean it thoroughly, inspect it and re lubricate prior to reassembly. I am curious if this is what is really making the difference on the mentioned actions. One would need a spring compression test unit to know for certain I assume.
