Second point: grabbing a handful of aftermarket springs and tossing them into a revolver is not optimum and often not productive. Suggest you get Mr Miculek's excellent videos on revolvers and look at what it takes for a full competition setup. First comes the fitting and smoothing, and then selecting springs for the purpose at hand.
Ok, excellent advice! I have read that these springs (especially the reduced power ones) can cause FTF due to lighter firing pin strikes depending on the primer.

I would like to smooth out the trigger pull for both range and woods carry but I don't want to spend the $100+ for a trigger job. I will have to check out those videos.
