Firing Pin Spring ?
I think my Firing Pin is getting weak.
Where can I get a new one ?
I see Wolff Springs has one, but it is extra power #20 is that OK ?

try this...
clean it with brake parts cleaner, make sure you spray down the back of the bolt as well, let dry, and oil, then try it again..
unless the rifle was stored for years cocked, likely its not tired.

sent you a PM
I have GI springs that are new in cosmolene. I'll give you one for the cost of postage if that is your problem. Try cleaning as Chuck suggested.

Did the cleaning & lube, no change.
Went to the range, it fires but I can tell the delay in striking.
Checked against another 03A3 that works fine.

Just a thought, but put your good 03-A3 spring in the bolt and see if it fixes the problem. If it does, you need a new spring. If not, something else is the problem.

its common for a Remington 700 spring or M70 spring to be used in a 1903..both will work, but not hit as hard.
