This one shot a 2-1/2" 10 shot group of Tac-22, with sights that don't fit me from 25 yards, so I am optimistic. As soon as my new peep sights get here I'll try again and see how she does.

| I guess a 4 pound trigger makes sense on a military trainer. Super cool rifle congrats. I have a 582 and it’s one of the prettier “modern” designs ever IMO.

| Nice project, looking very good. Were the original sights Lyman? How did they not fit you?

The orginal sights were Williams. The stock comb was to high, I couldn't get my cheek low enough to see through the aperature. Williams provided a set that are higher front and back.

Thanks. I'm planning to wet sand one more time (1000 grit), then Tru Oil. That will be the last sanding. Then final coat of Tru Oil.

I have lived the greatest adventure

| Is that a single shot? It looks like the .22s we used on my rifle team back in the '80s. We used Vandy's ROTC range and grabbed rifles out of a big cabinet at the range.
