well adjusted the trigger back to 4.5lbs, this was the factory setting, tried the resized brass, no go, tried some factory brass that had not been through a die, still no go, I decided that it was a head space issue, returned rifle to the previously mentioned 3lbs and made a mental note to take it t...

gun is brand new, never been fire! would chamber a loaded round before the adjustment, because I load my .204 out to 2.285 I checked it when we first got it,i wanted to see if they would fit in the magazine, it chamber with no problems, only change has been the trigger adjustment, just can't see how...

brass has been full length resized using a hornady die, it should be the dimensions it's suppose to be!

my boy's howa 1500 heavy barrel the bolt won't close with a round in the chamber, I tried an empty casing still won't close! I adjusted the trigger pull down to 3lbs a week or so ago could that be the cause?

[quote="Rick in Oregon"]Another vote for the new MTM boxes from Midway marked '204 Ruger'. Even with my long overall length BK's, the lid will still close. They won't fit in any of my boxes marked for the 223. All my boxes are color coded! .204 go in the blue boxes and the .223 go in red b...

NO it's not, my dad has a mark II in 7mm mag and it's not adjustable, only the target or varment model are! look in midwayusa they have one for around $80.00

mini mauser left hand

my custom .204, pacnor super match grade barrel, timney trigger, richards inline thumbhole stock in autumn leaves laminate!

adjusted the boys howa down to 3lbs last night, was relatively easy thanks to the help from this forum, actually got it down to 2 1/4 lbs but I think thats too light for him, it's currently set at a crisp 3lbs with no creep!

Well it's completed except for the scope! I'll post pics very soon hopefully by this weekend!

After alot of diligent sanding of the barrel channel the barrel is now floating, the action is pillar bedded, now I need to finish the stock with a little more work with 400grit sandpaper, then some fine steel wool, and a couple of coats of oil finish, project is close but now I have to come up with...

I have a timney on my mini mauser but haven't got the rifle to fit into the stock yet, I'll cross each bridge in it's turn, My boy is 16yo, he's an excellent shot, been shooting since he was 5yo, and hunting since he was 7yo, however he is still a kid and I think 3lbs is as low as we should go for n...

Thanks guys, thats the most info I've gotten from anybody! and no there where no instruction on the trigger pull in the box, on the manual, nothing, I suspect a liability attorney is invovled in that

my boy has a new howa 1500 in .204, trigger pull is a crisp 4.5 lbs, can anybody tell me how to adjust the trigger pull, which way do you turn the trigger adjustment screw? I'm taking it down to about 3lbs.

Me and my boy used them on the prairie dog shoot last may, I loaded them with 28.2grs of benchmark, my boy really liked them, he was making head shots out to 400yds, your not going to get a spectacular kill like you do with a heavier bullet but they'll do the job! will completely remove a pd's head ...
