That's a step in the right direction! Nice piece of wood as well, mine was rather plain. Yes the set triggers can be a pain, it's worth taking the adjusting screw right out if you can and seeing what the end is like? It should have a nice dome on it and not be worn away one side, this can sometimes cause a problem with fine adjustment. Also, I replaced the nipple on mine with a copper beryllium version from Kranks. I have to say it was fine with RWS caps, I tended to use the slightly larger version, 1075 I seem to recall?
Incidentally, the previous owner of mine had removed the trigger guard spur, something that never bothered me as I got used to shooting without one a long time ago.
I have to say, Once you shoot an under hammer you'll never want to shoot a side hammer again!

Thanks i will check that screw, haven't had a chance to strip it right down yet.
It was the 1075 caps i was using but i think they might have been damp.
I might just order a copper beryllium nipple, i need a nipple wrench anyway, the copper beryllium nipples on my Pedersoli Remington have been very good.
The spur is taking a bit of getting used to, the grip is a bit of a reach for me but its early days.
Out of curiosity what under hammer are you shooting ?
Yes plenty of flame in the wood, tbh its not really my thing, j would rather it was plain but if it shoots i can live with it.

Thanks for the tip about the screw, mine had a little flat worn on one side, i emailed Pedersoli to see if spare parts are available, they responded straight away, shipped free of charge yesterday and it was delivered by UPS today along with a spare, fantastic servive.

I have a very old Ardesa Underhammer that is my go to gun for just about everything. Best score so far is 99/100 in the Welsh Championships a couple of years ago. I've never hit 100 with it despite lots of practice!
My back-up gun is a .38" Baumkircher which I was fortunate to pick up for a good price. It's very good, in the right hands!
