Browning A-Bolt II Trigger Job

[eagle rider]

Shot this yesterday for zero. The rifle shoots really well in the new stock and the bedding is a big improvement. It's definately stiffer recoils in the lugged, bedded stock. Surprisingly it never liked my pet 150 gr load before. It's shooting under an inch with these now. I think I'm liking this gun again. Lol.

Nice looking rifle. Guns always are subject to the quick accuracy fix of a lighter trigger. With cold weather gloves and everything else it's good for most to have a 2.5 to 3 lb trigger. Needing anything lighter is just a bandaid fix for a bad squeeze. I've got light triggers and heavier ones. As long as it's crisp and breaks well it will work. Most rifles are around 3-4 lbs I think these days. Just shot my abolt 30-06 with Sunday to check it for this weekend. It has factory trigger adjusted down to 3lb. I managed to make one ragged hole well under an inch. When I shoot my 22lr Ruger target pistol for bullseye league it's the same thing. Stock 4.5 lb trigger opposed to aftermarket at half that weight. Just the other night I shot a ragged hole group on slow fire target. Light triggers help hide a crappy flinch filled pull of the trigger. What I'm saying is average trigger weight is plenty good enough for any hunting situation.

The verdict is WOW. Rifle is a dream. Hunts well and shoots better. My rifle season was completed with a 177 yd shoot through a meat doe's neck.

Congrats on the doe eagle rider!

I'm thinking about a Boyd's thumbhole to replace the plastic on my Savage .243. Maybe in the spring.

They make nice stuff. Just spent Fantasy Football earnings on a clearance A-Bolt Stalker in 270 Win. After rebates and Black Friday deals its net $375 to me. I'm gonna do a Boyds Pepper Laminate on that.i got a Burris Droptine 3-9 for it. It will my Christmas present to me. I have all winter to bed it, do the trigger and set it up. I will likely use it to hunt next season. Bottom line to basically make a homegrown custom project like these work out to be for under $700 is a home run. You'll love their stock on your Savage.

I have a Boyd's Anschutz style on my 10/22. Looks a little funky with a 16.5" barrel, but a little time in the shop will get that fixed some day.

They're tough to beat for the price.
