A H&R Ultra Varmint in 243 Winchester followed me home
I wanted the Leupold 4.5x14 x 40 scope that was included with the rifle
The rifle has a thumbhole stock and a heavy barrel
But from the looks of the bore , it may have never been fired
Base is installed , no marks on the base from rings
This and the perfect bore make me think the rifle was never fired
The rings and scope are still in the factory boxes
Not sure how old the rifle is
It looks like New in The Box
BUT right now the trigger pull is at least 8 lb , maybe 10 lb
With the trigger pull about as smooth as a sheet of 60 .... maybe 80 grit sand paper
My question
Can these triggers be worked on by me or a gunsmith ?
And if they can , is a 3 or 4 lb trigger pull possible ?
If I can get the trigger smoothed out and down to 3 or 4 Lb
I would like to see if I could get it to group well
As sometimes I need a Varmint rifle for 400+ yard shots
Thanks
John
