The thermometer got above freezing today, so I loaded up my new Henry 243 and headed for the range. 100 grain Hornady interlock and h4350. I was high to start and I got it dialed in at 25. I moved back to 50 yards off a rest. The first two were about an inch low. One adjustment and the rest is 6 shots. I am happy

And no misfires

Are you using the inner spring or the Grainger only? I'm using the inner on my 45/70. Much better trigger and no misfires.

The inner also.

Finally shot my 45/70 with the Grainger spring and the inner spring. Like yours, trigger pull is about half and no misfires.

Started experimenting looking a lighter recoil. This is 30.0 of 2400 under a 300 gr Rem hp at 50 yards. Need to chrony them but should be around 1700 fps. A good start me thinks. Not sure why the pic turned on it's side. All the taped holes were from my new Maxi and should be at the top...
