B78's that I owned back in another lifetime were bug hole accurate- once you got used to their mushy triggers, which I did but didn't like having to. I'll stick with Martinis and original HiWalls w/set triggers (current and future builds). #1's are how they've been described above. The couple I've owned, .223 1B and 7x57 1A, (none on hand now) were decently accurate, decently stocked, and had decent triggers. A pretty decent rifle, but like driving Toyota Camry- reliable, efficient, cost effective, but quite ordinary (which can be a good thing smile ) . If one fell into my lap I wouldn't push it away. Personally, I'm saving up a couple social security checks to buy a Dakota 10 in .22 Hornet.
