Early this year, I acquired a 336 in .30-30 that had never been fired ... it's from the early to mid 70's, and is a fine little rifle. I have it scoped, and have installed the front bbl band and rear stud for the sling ... she's all ready to go, and I've been practicing with her a bit here and there. I'm still more a fan of bolt guns, but the "lever bug" is around and about, and I'm thinking that she'll be my close quarters, ground hunting deer rifle...

except for one small thing ...

What can I do to get the trigger pull adjusted so that it pulls light (approx. 3lbs) and breaks clean, little to no creep or overtravel, etc ...??? Or, is that even possible with this rifle, short of having a smith give it a complete overhaul?
