I use my model 17-3 only for precision target shooting (single action mode) since we have no shooting sport class for 22LR revolvers here in Sweden. In precision shooting a revolver is not a big handicap. I do better with my Unique DES 69 than with the revolver.
But I want to be able to shoot the 17-3 as well as the pistol.
The big difference between the revolver and the pistol is the trigger return. The revolver returns the trigger with force. I believe this is the reason for my flyers.
I don't want to convert it to single action.
Is this the spring I need? Wolff 16666 S&W RP REBOUND SPRING 11LB.
If you are shooting single action only, I'm not sure how trigger reset affects your groups? If you hold the trigger back (even briefly) after the shot, by the time it moves back forward, the bullet has left the barrel.
The 11 pound rebound spring is the lightest from Wolff. I suggest getting 11, 12 and 13 pounders. In most of my guns, the 11 pound does not reliably reset the trigger, especially on guns that haven’t been shot much. If your gun has been shot a lot and the internal parts well burnished from use, the 11 may work just fine.
