Box call springs in a pinch?

Can any of you call makers recommend a spring for box calls I can find at a big chain hardware store or the like? I ordered some springs from Dad's Monday, not sure when they'll arrive. I'm working on 4 calls right now and have to swap the one spring and screw I have from an old Lynch call between the builds. It's kind of a pain! Looking for a sufficient spring locally until the stockpile arrives. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you check with Brookside Game Calls? They have them and you can purchase how many you need .... like 1 /10 /25 and so on ...

If you have a menards they have small springs in stock. They are usually too long and need trimmed down. 1 spring is good for 2 calls usually.

I just hope you found something close enough to work for you.

They'll work good enough to get them close until my order shows up and I can put a finish and  final tune on them.

Thank you.
