If thats the same action in the 1790 series, itll be fly-killing accurate across the shop, sh*tty trigger and gritty cocking the 1790's are fun, can say about the sporter/classic stocked versions
the safety lever is, IMO a safety issue. easy enough to make it less of a safety issue..... the trigger.... thats an ergonomic issue. Was thinking of shaping some of the grip to help correct that (a bit....) but the flat blade trigger made that unnecessary. Ive also added a 3d printed forearm...
Ive passed on many good scopes because the reticles arent what I like...... The Horus Tremor family, Nightforce's Mil-xt are the standards I judge a reticle against. Have a NF 4-32 with the Mil-xt, I'll never go back to just "cross hairs"
"I suspect that those clamp-on levels are ok. And they are surely better than nothing." So long as you take the time and make the effort to make it as level/square/"calibrated" as you can, yea itll be fine for range and field work Not talking about micrometer precision here, just trying to...
enhanced safety and flat trigger arrived yesterday. installed last night. the safety was easy, but the trigger blade was a tad more convoluted :) . easy enough though after studying it a bit. the safety now allows my to flick it off with the top of my thumb, and reengage it just by thumbing it...

Had the great pistol now for a while, got a 1000-ish shot thru it and thats been enough to understand two things that bug me.... first is the hard edge of the "thumb grooves" on the back of the grip. not bad, really but I think I'll just _gently_ round both of those over second thing is the...
"Also, why would you leave your gun in direct sunlight Dan?" I wouldnt. I should have more fully explained why I said that: having the varied quality of guns affected by heat then testing may show temp related shifts. Id expect the "better quality" gun to show less them than the lower cost...
I have an adjustable pointer for my scope I got years ago (dont remember now who I got it from) but as the scope shifted you could account for that by moving the pointer up or down some. Works great IF you understand how much the scope shifts and how much to move the pointer.
"Also, why would you leave your gun in direct sunlight Dan? Don't you cover it with a towel/reflective wrap or keep it in a gun bag? I do everything I can to keep my rig at ambient temperature" yes under a reflective cover. still when its 85 - 100 ambient, hard to keep the gun cool(er) might...
Iowa Ag... good test, and I get where your going Id like to see that test shot again, AFTER the guns have been setting in direct sunlight for an hour in 95 degree heat.....
Fill pressure, reg setting, ambient temps, and a boat load of other factors will affect this. Yes, you likely CAN tune it a bit better, but IMO there's a point of diminishing returns. Might be a cold winter's day kinda project :)
First thing that has to happen is we have to change our "perception" of what a scope looks like. As in, no more round tubes approximating .current scope footprints. It will happen, wont be cheap at first, but look at how much the current offerings have come down since we first started seeing...
