@Green Chile they are all nice but the Leonard and Henry really catch my eye.
I know it is a sin to covet thy neighbor's property, but I cannot help it with this rifle. Simply gorgeous.I just purchased this Dakota #10 in 243 Winchester and can't wait to take it to the range and shoot it next week.
I have to say it is the most elegant firearm I've ever owned!

Very Nice. I have a timey trigger in a Ruger 77 RMS set at about 1.75 lbs that works great.As @odonata said, the no 1 makes a wonderful brush, stalk, and tight quarters gun.
Here's my Ruger no 1 in 308.
This is my primary deer rifle. I'm somewhere north of 25 whitetail and a couple dozen pigs with this weapon.
It likes 150gr accubonds over varget.
Jard trigger at 1.5 lbs is light and crisp and far better than the clunky factory unit but it is a fiddly install.
It's such a sweet little gun for tight quarters, blinds, and stalking through brush.

I have a late 70's 77rsi in 30-06 that was my dad's. Thought about a trigger upgrade but it requires a good bit of material removed from the stock.Very Nice. I have a timey trigger in a Ruger 77 RMS set at about 1.75 lbs that works great.

I cant say I had it done by a local gunsmith over 20 years ago and unfortunately he has long since passed.I have a late 70's 77rsi in 30-06 that was my dad's. Thought about a trigger upgrade but it requires a good bit of material removed from the stock.
Is that what you had to do?
