Can anyone give me some pointers on possibly adjusting the trigger pull on my .243 handi? Thanks, Worm.

There is no adjustment, read the Trigger info in the FAQ and Help sticky, it's all in there! :wink:

I had a lot of fun doing mine. Follow the sticky as Quick says and you won't have any problems. I took the trigger pull on my 12 gauge Pardner from 8 pounds down to 3 pounds. It takes patience and tools. That's about it.

A quicky trigger "marrying" as ML McPherson calls it in the Handi section of his book "Accurizing the Factory Rifle", is to cock the hammer and apply about 20lbs force on it while pulling the trigger, repeat 20 times. A not of caution tho, several members have broke the sear notch off the hammer doing this. Be sure to cushion the firing pin with a spent case in the chamber to protect the firing pin. This technique might work sometimes, but I prefer to just do the honing, it's a great opportunity to clean the trigger group, too!! I don't mess with the transfer bar, Raynor's trigger work works for me, but downloading and reading Perklo's trigger hone info helps a great deal in R&R.
