I got one in 22LR a couple of years ago Charlie, the trigger is heavy for my taste, I would guess around 6lbs. The gun is heavy and the trigger itself is wide making it shootable, she is very accurate with a wide variety of ammo. The gun's weight and balance make it easy to hit with offhand, I think it would make a good sillouette rifle. I have not fully evaluated it yet but so far so good.
