[QUOTE="7stw, post: 740091, member: 22854"] Wpd410, Welcome to the Bro' hood, and the addiction to the STW. It sounds like you are on your way, and the trigger swap was a good idea. Those Pro Mark triggers are a little cantankerous at best. Some good, some bad, most not good. I remember those 700 DBM models. And the only thing wrong with them at the time was the barrels were TOO short. I am sure you've read enough by now, or know that a STW can't " throttle up" unless she's got a 26+ launch pad. Anyone of " us " here will be glad to steer you in right direction, including myself, if you feel something ain't right. And, yeah, I feel your pain on the snow, and temps. I too live in the Northeast, and have the same issue now myself. It's been in the teens here the past few days, which isn't ideal shooting weather. One bit of advice on your rifle, especially initially, is to be diligent with your break in process. Shoot, clean, shoot clean, bla bla, bla, etc. She will come around. The STW is an awesome round, and with the bullet selection that is out there now, it is even better. The STW is a lot less finicky then the RUM, and your barrel will last a lot longer as well. Have fun, enjoy the ride, and don't be afraid to ask a question or two! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! P/ S, the STW is free bored, and engaging the throat, and fit into the box is impossible. Actually, all of mine fit into the box, and print great groups. And depending what bullet you choose, some of them like to " jump" anyway. FWIW. [/QUOTE]
