    Winchester model 70 trigger spring replacement - anyone know of anything in NZ?

    Hi all

    I have a Winchester model 70 (post 2008 model) with a factory trigger that I find too heavy. More than once now I've found myself pulling shots because of the force required to fire the damn thing. I've tried adjusting the trigger weight but it hasn't changed much which from what I read is a common problem with this rifle.

    A drop in replacement Timney trigger is available but that's over $300. I don't need ultra precision, I just need something better for my hunting. There is an outfit in the US that sells lighter replacement springs for the factory trigger for 16USD but they don't ship to NZ unfortunately.

    Before I spend that much money on a new trigger, does anyone know of any similar replacement spring kits sold in NZ?

    Cheers
