Finally got my own .375, Model 70 Alaskan

Anyone else disappointed in trigger pull? Mine averaged 5lbs 3oz out of the box. I was only able to adjust it down to a little over 4lbs. Thinking I may put a Timney in it.

Dang it! I guess I got lucky or mine is crisp and guessing around 3 lbs. Throw a Timney in it.

Mine has noticeable creep too. Really a piss poor trigger IMO. I expected more from it. Just wondering if this is the norm for a factory M70 or I just got a bad sample. My other M70 has an equally terrible trigger but I never use that gun so haven't fooled with upgrading it.

My trigger is terrible. Around 5.5lb. Gun is accurate though. Finally zeroed it.
 
Finally got a scope mounted. Bases courtesy of Tally from the Double Rifle Society giveaway. Old school Leupold VX-3 1.5-5 German 4 reticle.

Not the final scope but dug into the parts bin and figured it good for whitetail this year until I get reemployed.

I'll take the 375 bullets. I'm not a techie, so I can do USPS money order or Paypal?
