    X-Bolt Trigger work

    Does anyone know where I an source a lighter spring for an X-bolt or know any gunsmiths near Palmerston North that could lighten my trigger?
    my new X-bolt is fantastic but the trigger is too heavy. I can only adjust it down to about 3.5lb but would prefer it about 2 lb

    Give Scott Trail at SSRNZ in Featherston a ring #027 579 1047 ( he does good work & might be able to help you out ) or for someone a bit closer there's Allan Newnham in Ashhurst #0274 316 483 ( he's pretty good with triggers )
    Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!

    Done 2 already in 223. Can be done with care and after a bit of swearing.That screw is the tricky part. We are down to 2lbs just.Clean it with lighter fuel. Dry it then kroil it then if necessary use cotton to hold it and thread lock it.
