    Is it a Rem 700 older style trigger? If so, we can set something up, but I wouldn't be scared at all if I were you. You are more than capable. There is a bunch of info on the net about how to do it, and short of pulling the screws all the way out, you can't really screw it up permanently.

    No Sir it's the Howa 1500, .308.

    I tore it apart once and found a video on youtube that was well done. I just didn't trust myself to screw something up with all the disclaimers of "too loose and it won't fire, yada, yada, yada"

    Bear, didn't you recently have an issue with the trigger getting all locked up as well?

    Nice shooting SAFriday. Did you look at the camera and declare "All head shots!" when you were done with each group?

    I did. Recently had a DBM installed on her but I didn't know that I needed to file a little of the new trigger guard down to allow reset so it kept locking up. But that is all fixed now.

    I was practicing shooting the hostages. There fault for getting taken in the first place.

    Seriously though, it's damn hard to see the hits through the scope past about 200-250 yds as it is, but about the only way to see the hit is a white target. That helps out to about 350-400 and then you either need a spotting scope or a reactive target. I really like a steel plate with dirt backing to call the splash, but that's impossible with the 7mm mag. That sucker comes off the bench during recoil.
