    Les..
    Out on the backyard for first time. Very smooth and the trigger seems to have been worked on feels like 2.5? lbs vs 5 lbs for my other non adjustable Light. Shooting in the 500s FPS but climbing as it cleans out the oil I put down the breech. No question the seal is near perfect. Spring is 100 years old but so pleasant to shoot. As said above this was a shooter’s rifle feels so nice in the hand. Crazy to think he could have been shooting this with Julian Hatcher at Camp Perry in the 1920s, but as an attorney he probably keep his shots going toward a paper target?
