[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1104961, member: 70559"] merbeau, Maybe ten years ago I ordered a Brown Precision rilfe. I supplied the action from a 700. I asked for an aftermarket trigger. When the rifle arrived I was excited; until I got to the range. I tried two different bullets, two different primers, and two different powders. I could not get less than 3" groups. I called Brown. When I complained about the trigger he told me, "I thought it was a little rough when I sent it out." He didn't believe the groups. He didn't like the bullets. It was all my fault. I called the credit card company and told them I talked with Brown a couple times and was getting nowhere. She said, "The sooner he gets the rifle back the sooner you get a refund." It was in the mail that day. He would not return my action. I took another action to a local 'smith. The first three shots printed 15/16" without even working up a load. Once I developed a load I fired 3/8" at 100 and 1 1/16" at 300 yards. When I purchased my Freedom Arms .454 I wanted an 18 ounce trigger. I sent it off to some expert. It wasn't even close. I took it to the local guy. He displayed it by hitting it with a rubber hammer, dropping it on his rubber armored work bench with it cocked. Then he put a trigger pull gauge on it and demonstrated five times in a row 18 ounces exactly[B]![/B] What I'm trying to says is the experts aren't always from out of town. [/QUOTE]
