Appreciate all the helpful and nice comments, guys. Gee, you almost make me feel like I've done something. All I did was sit here and inherit the thing.

However, I promise we will be worthy of the honor of being pre-'64 Winchester owners through our gun care, marksmanship,game killing, and safety.

Is there anything in particular I should know about operating this bolt action? We have been shooting post-'01 Ruger 77 and Remington 700 .270's as well as a 2004 Win 300 WSM.

Also, it has a heavy trigger. We're used to about 2.5 lbs. I assume Winchester's is adjustable?

Thanks again
