[QUOTE="Fitch, post: 371402, member: 19372"] I just did one of these last week. It was a bit tricky and took a while. You might want to see what the guy on this WEB page has to say about Winchesters [url=http://erniethegunsmith.com/catalog/c41_p1.html]Trigger Springs|Trigger Pull|Pillar Bedding|Rifle Accuracy[/url] I ended up with a 5/8" diameter front pillar, 1/2" diameter rear pillar. It is critical to have the front pillar long enough that it takes the compressive load of the action screw, not the magazine well metal that bridges from the bottom metal to the receiver. I torqued the middle screw to 10 in-lbs. The front and rear screws to 60 in-lbs when I reasembled the rifle. I floated the barrel and left out the barrel screw. I'm going to cut it off and glue it in the hole for appearance purposes. Fitch [/QUOTE]
