I recently purchased a Tikka t3x varmint and the stock trigger pull was 2.5lbs with the adjustment screw all the way out, as advertised. Before I bought it I already had a plan to replace the trigger spring and get the pull weight down a bit lower, so I quickly ordered a YoDave spring. It did indeed drop the trigger pull weight to ~1.3lbs, but the firing pin follows the bolt forward when running the bolt pretty normally. If I set the trigger with the YoDave spring to 1.5-1.75lbs it is better, but firing pin still follows the bolt if I run it hard. YoDave spring adjusted all the way in was still not holding under deliberately hard bolt manipulation, so I put the stock spring back in. Stock spring adjusted to 2.5lbs is good to go no matter how hard I slam it around.
My question is: is there a different aftermarket spring that's between the YoDave and factory? Is trying another brand a waste of time?
