I am using the 1lb pull spring kit from Gunbloke in my Howa mini and it has worked OK for me. I have not experienced any problems with cocking. I do not hunt so a 1lb pull is used for target shooting only. I don't recommend 1lb for hunting. I have slammed the rifle down on the buttstock with and without a dummy round in the chamber and it has never fired on its own.
There are 2 springs with the kit and if you don't get the smaller of the 2 springs where it seats correctly you will get problems. I did trim the factory spring at first and I was not able to get the creep out of it so I ordered the Gunbloke springs and it now breaks nice and crisp at 1lb exactly on my gauge. Just my .02.
