I have a newer Winchester 1885 in 7 WSM and the trigger is terrible. Any suggestions on where to have it worked on? Thanks
Jim

Have you tried adjusting it? Both my Low Walls are fine as-is, but you should at least be able to lighten it up. If you go too low, I believe it will just stop working.

Yup! He did my low wall 260's trigger. It's a big improvement and very reasonable.

They are quite difficult to disassemble and reassemble, especially if you don't have the tools. Lee has the tools.

If this is the replica made in Japan for Browning/Winchester the trigger assy is really quite simple to remove. I have had 3 done by him and they are all excellent triggers now. If I recall the cost was around $35 and the turn around time was less than 30 days.

Exactly smile I disassembled and sent Lee just the trigger. It came back in about a week and is probably around a #2.5 pull.

I need to drive the 20 miles to his shop and have him work over my .22 Hornet.

He does good work but it took over 5 months and several phone calls for him to return my trigger.
