Thanks to all !!
As for the Cocking Piece Pin, set it very close to the edge of the bolt body. I have mine only a couple thous. distance. Take as much pin “fall” as you’re able. I know years ago someone along the way came up with setting the pin distance at 0.080”. Well, this does nothing except loses pin travel. Whereas setting for maximum travel can allow for lighter spring tension. Which aids in bolt lift while still maintaining sufficient striking force.
