Saturday afternoon I was sitting around having a couple of beers with an old family friend which I would classify as my second Dad. We have hunted, fished, frog gigged, built stuff, broken stuff and fixed stuff my entire life.
We started talking guns and he began dragging out his iron. Holy crap the nice collection he has. He pulled a heavy barreled rifle from a case and it had two triggers. I had never seen that before so he explained the back one as a "set" trigger. You pull it and it sets the front trigger to have a pull in the ounce range for long range shots. He bought the gun second hand 30-40 years ago. He used it for varmint hunting in Texas. It has a weaver K10 60 scope which is an interesting piece. It has adjustments on the front from 25ft to 1000yds.
After he talked about the gun a bit he handed it to me and told me to take it and shoot it. He said it was a tack driver and his favorite rifle. I told him I didn't want to take it, but he insisted. He said he knew where it was if he needed it. Looking forward to shooting it when we get down to the farm over Christmas. Anyone have any experience with one of these?
