[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1245168, member: 30902"] It was worth the extra to me to get everything I wanted the first time around. I think I posted a link early on in the thread to a video explaining the proper way to adjust the X-Mark Pro Trigger. I have that trigger on all but a couple of my 700's and have them adjusted down to where they are very satisfactory including the trigger on this rifle. The Ruger has the simplest trigger group of any being produced today and it only takes about five minutes to tweak it to a very light and very crisp trigger. On the Remingtons once I have them adjusted to where I like it I just bathe it in lapping compound and work it until all the burrs are smoothed out and then clean it up. It takes a couple of hours to get them where I like them but it only costs me a few cents instead of a couple of hundred for an aftermarket trigger. The obscure cartridge I like even better than the 300wm is the 7mm STW. I've had a running love affair with the STW for twenty plus years. You cannot however put thousands of rounds down range through one before losing accuracy and you can with the .300wm. [/QUOTE]
