I lightened the mainspring as much as I could without getting misfires, then installed a 13 lb Wolff rebound spring. It feels good, but I have a 12 lb rebound spring on order. I hope to eventually duplicate the feel of my (similar vintage) 686, and it's close now but not quite there yet.
Cal50, what weight rebound spring did you use?

BTW, here's how it looks now with the old-style thumbpiece and lower rear sight blade.
