Ol' Wind River Tacks got a little present from Santa to go with her new barrel.
She got a Davis DST (Deer Slayer) trigger, and I polished the tumbler and sear, plus the back backing plate....she's slick as a whistle on lock time.
I think the old girl is about as ready as she is every going to be....still not sure how that new barrel is going to shoot, but I do have to admit to having pretty good expectations....all my other GM barrels over the years worked out just fine, with a little luck this one will too.
If I can ever find the Range again, under all that snow and ice, you can betcha I'm going to find out
what she'll do, and what she likes best....something good to look forward to in the New Year, don'tcha think?
I've handled it enough now, with the new 33" barrel, that I don't find it nowhere near as awkward as the first few times I shoulder it, she seems to balance well, and 'hold' seems good, plus those Williams sights are starting to grow on me a little bit....But I'm still not sure on that part. I got a soft spot for the older T/C Partridge type sight, but we'll see.
I "think" we may get along just fine, once we get to know each other a little better, suspect we'll just have to wait and see.
Uncle Russ...
