    takbok liked post by Hunter_Nick On thread : JW15 trigger overtravel
    This has got to be the single best thing I’ve done to my JW15. It’s a great little rifle and quite accurate, but the 4 miles of overtravel in the trigger has always annoyed me. Just didn’t feel like...

    I was looking back through my diary and I saw that I shot my first two deer this year in the Ruahines off Topgrass Road, so thought it would be a good idea to finish the year the same way. I...

    650m is a long way out, I'd be going 20". An over barrel suppressor will keep the overall length to 24" which is fine. 16" is over kill unless you are hunting thick thick bush.

    I used birchwood casey super blue. I ended up taking the engraving off the sides of the action to clean it up a bit, still needs a bit more blue I think. 256109 256110
