    Seems like Ti would be a good idea.

    Yes, that and a slightly reduced power firing pin spring.

Run D spring if it matters? Or are lighter springs reliable if stay away from known hard primer ammo. In other words IF your life depends it, what do you run?

    I stick with D springs because they light everything even when dirty, and I don't like to worry about it. I am also not bothered by the7.5/3.25 pound trigger weights of the D. I find those weights perfectly appropriate and manageable.
