[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 273246, member: 11717"] I have heard that the X-Mark triggers are good triggers. whether or not a Jewel or other after market is any better and how much better, I couldn't say. Maybe someone with experience can chime in. I've always done well with factory triggers, but maybe if I shot a jewel I would thing different. I squeezed a couple of X-Mark triggers in the store and they were very crisp, but a little heavy. Bedding your stock sure couldn't hurt and I think it would help. I would do a pillar bed and there a some threads here on that. If you've never done it before you might try it on an old beater stock and rifle first. You might also bed the forearm to stiffen it up and free float the barrel. I'm not sure how tight and well fit an SPS stock is, but my philosphy is always to shoot the rifle first and go from there. You just might have a tack driver out of the box. Your budget and time constraints might also be a factor in determing your course of action. If you want good consistant accuracy, you are likely going to have to lay out some cash for it as well as time. That's why I like the Sendero, because they have good components and wokmanship from the box. Unfortunately for you, they dont make the lefties and that sucks. But you can get there. You can use this rifle to learn from, and in a few years have a good platform to modify and build from. -MR [/QUOTE]
