RE: Traditions Pursuit XLT - any input/thoughts?
If you are going to buy a Pursuit check the trigger before you buy it. Mine was somewhere between terrible and awful. Many of the early Pursuits had trigger levels above 15 pounds. I understand that they finally fixed that but I would check it before purchase. I sold my Pursuit LT as the trigger is very difficult to correct. I got mine down to about six pounds. Some people took out the weird hairspring trigger spring and reworked the action to accept a small coil spring to return the trigger which I understand worked fairly well. The Traditions rifles still use the same barrels that might be in question for maximum loads. Personally I would stay below the recommended level in the manual. Read it carefully as Magnum qualifications vary greatly from rifle to rifle.
