I am on my second Tubb's speedlock kit for a Rem 700 action. The first one broke the firing pin spring after 30 rounds. Today I had 5 light primer strikes out of 30 rounds fired. Examining the primers (CCI BR-2) shows no visible signs of any of them being high.
I intend to replace the original firing pin assembly in the bolt and retry the same failed rounds.
Anyone have this sort of problem with this FP kit? The rifle is a beautiful 308 that I built two years ago and shoots great (1/4 MOA). Reliability is paramount for me. Am I really giving up anything by using the factory pin and spring?
