    Why would you want to add more strength to the spring?

    I personally would not. Stock Savage Spring rate is 26lbs. A wolf enhanced spring is 32 lbs. Claims of faster lock up time with Wolf. Claims of elimination of light primer strikes with Wolf. Some people claim that Wolf spring doesn't do anything except make the bolt lift even harder! Here is some reading. I never wanted a Wolf. After reading more about it, I want one even less and I would warn people against it.

    You decide. I couldnt imagine trying to install the darn thing(the Wolf). A stock 26 lb is plenty hard to install alone. My thumb still hurts!
