Correct me if I'm wrong, please: When the handle of a bolt action rifle is lifted, the firing pin spring is compressed, right? Does this mean that, in a smaller distance, the 60 degree bolt must do the same amount of work as a 90 degree bolt? And do the manufacturers of 60 degree bolt rifles use a lighter firing pin spring to compensate for this, lest the amount of force required to lift the bolt become objectionable?
Appreciate your thoughts on this!
