the #1 can drive you nuts!...I have seen the symptons here that i have fought in the past..my first #1 was a 1-A in 06..same thing 2 touching and a flier...i worked the forend over and it went from 1 1/2" groups to 5/8"...you can work wonders when you hit the right key.. have several others I am going to work on...I have an artical that was printed soon after I bought my first #1, and that is what I went by and it worked.....if I were a better typer, I would type it for you...anyway dont give up on your #1 as they can be sweet shooters, even the new ones if you put an after market trigger such as the Moyer's from Brownells.. hope this helps some.....Rob
