Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Ideas for a Still Hunting Rifle??

Thanks for your good wishes mark.

Out of the box with a trigger tuning and Federal Classic 150s it's about a 1.5MOA shooter. I think I can do better with handloads but I haven't used it much because the safety is so loud moving from fully back to fully forward.

I had a hard time learning to keep my thumb along the right side of the safety to keep from banging it against my nose when it went off with that 12 inch LOP. I got that idea from a Jeff Cooper book about his experience with the short stocked Springfield.
