Thought I would give a progress report n the mighty BSA 222, weather was good so away I went. Trigger is a shocker probably the heaviest I have ever used, no feel and a considerable effort needed,...

After taking heaps of advice onboard, and noting weight is the only thing I don't love about my current tops rifle, I am set on a new path that I think will work out well. My rifle is a shooter that...
