Hey Larry

I bought an old Winchester 54 in 30-06 at the last gun show. It is a carbine 20 inch bbl. Nice rifle..seriously...but it has an atrocious trigger. I think it will accept a timney trigger for a M-70 but will have to be fitted. Can you do it for me??. I'm a bit leery about doing rifle triggers. Smith triggers are ok..but rifles..nah. I think I will carry it elk hunting. 165 gr Barnes X ought to work ok.. even the 150 should do it too. Those X bullets are wicked.

If anybody has any other load suggestions i am open to hearing about anything that you like.
