[QUOTE="James D., post: 29021, member: 430"] Brent; indulge us with some pictures if you get around to it, the mods sound interesting. BTW: I haven't heard a good thing about the Springfield scopes, it seems that they have the same reputation for reliability as a Tasco with the exception of a few hundred more dollars attached. C East, what load are you running through the .338 Lapua? I haven't been successful in finding that perfect load in my rifle yet. Something happened the last time I took my rifle to the range. My cousin was shooting it and as he was extracting a case and rechambering a round he must have bumped the safety because when he pulled the trigger, nothing happened... Then when the safety was bumped again the thing went off! I have never experienced this myself as I never use a safety but was able to recreate the problem at home a few times. After doing a search here and BRcentral it seems to be a problem related to the Remington style triggers. I am hoping that it's a burr or something and that it will cure itself but it's not a desirable thing to have on a rifle. Schilen has a decent trigger but it's not in the same class as a Jewell, maybe if it was worked on or adjusted it can be improved? Armalite just says that the trigger is a modified Rem 700 type without anymore supporting details as to whether it can be swapped out for another one. [/QUOTE]
