Default RE: Pros vs. Cons for charles daly 98

Last winter I bought a 98 mauser 22-250. I wished I hadn't and heres why. I had my mind set on a stevens 200, heard nothing but good about it. The only reason I got the daly instead was becuase of its "good factory adjustable trigger". Well, the guns shoots fine and is accurate but the trigger, even when adjusted at the lowest setting, is extremely stiff and uncomfortable. I've never seen a worse trigger on any gun, ever!

I called Charles Daly Co. to ask them about the trigger adjustment and they told me flat out they do not give out any info for trigger adjustments and that I voided my warranty by adjusting the trigger. I thought there attitude sucked.

Now I am going to buy a trigger kit and when Im done I could have just bought a Remington ot anything else with a good trigger. My buddy bought a new remington for $30 more than my daly and it has a nice light comfortable trigger.

That being said, I have no doubt when I get a trigger kit this gun will be good, but I wouldn't do it again, id get the stevens definately!
