I am trying to figure out how to fix my light primer strikes on my savage mk II fv-sr and bought a stronger spring. Well, when taking the bolt apart today the little washer that sits on top of the spring right behind the e- clip disappeared somehow and I can't seem to find it. I figured if I had an extra one or two of those and a few e-clips I would be good for awhile. Does anyone know where to buy them?

Have you contacted savage?Comment

Ditto on trying Savage.
Have you checked your firing pin protrusion?Comment

Savage has been contacted three times with voicemails and emails in the last two days and still waiting to hear back.... I am getting firing pin contact on the barrel face so I know that is absorbing energy as well causing a few light strikes.... I plan on polishing/grinding the top of the pin so that it is flush with the bolt face.... then most of the contact should be directed towards the rim of the shell if that makes sense....
From research this is a very common problem with savage rimfires unfortunatelyComment

I have the exact same model and it does the same thing but lightly. The firing pin is flush with the end of the bolt. Looks like they did this to keep the chamber from being damaged by dry firing. Might want to check your rim depth also, mines near perfect at 0.044".Comment
