So I bought a Winchester model 70 Heavy Varmint (push feed) rifle in .308 a while back for just cast bullet target shooting, figured .30 caliber cast paper punching was most of what I was doing anyway, might as well have a dedicated rifle.
The "heavy" part certainly applies to the trigger and I need to do something about it. I know the adjustment is relatively straightforward with teh stock set up two nuts and adjustment for over travel, but there is an outfit selling a spring that replaces the factory spring and two nuts which all of the customer reviews say is very good. His video is here; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VJ3ZJOgoNc The biggest complaint I saw on customer comments was it made the trigger too light for a hunting rifle which I guess could be made heavier with a small washer or two, but this is a target rifle anyway, so no worries.
Anybody used one of these? I went to their website and the price is about $13 but with shipping and handling it was almost $26 which isn't a big deal I suppose, but that seems excessive for a spring that weighs less than an ounce. There's a vendor on ebay with very good feedback selling a similar looking spring kit, I'm kind of inclined to do that.
ANybody think this would be advantageous over the factory set up? Also, while I have it out, polishing the sear surface is probably a good idea, recommendations on how best to do that?
