Target shot today with a M52-B BULLGUN, I paid $1,300 for, if anyone cares to know. 100 yards off a portable bench, using Red Box Eley. All 10X 10 shot group fired my my close friend Tom. $1,300 is cheap for a M52 that can do that. The “B”, is a 1940 vintage rifle using a 20X STS scope I got for free or I would certainly tell you what I paid for it. Any other info you would care to have, just ask. BTW, it did shoot better than my $1,800 C BULLGUN.   Big Larry

That’s a little surprising, considering how much better the trigger was supposed to be on the Cs; never having had one, I don’t know.  Would assume that in bench shooting, the trigger is less important than in position shooting, because the rifle is less stable.

Actually, the shooter never adjusted the trigger on the “C”. It was just fine the way it was. The “B” also has a very nice pull and needed no adjustment either. Myself, nor my friend who shot the target, are Distinguished expert riflemen. Just a matter of good ammo, a steady bench, a good scope and a good rifle. I hope to get it out myself when it warms up. It’s all sighted in for me. Big Larry
