Looking at the trigger spring upgrade for the Lithgow.

Sounds like you'll have a good pair of .22's :)

I was thinking of ordering one in the black cerokote with the factory 1kg spring

I am happy with the selection. Not looking for target rifles.. Just waiting for the pta's

Not sure which one I am more excited for lol

Ruger is a package with scope from horsely park, came with scope, ammo, cleaning kit and Spotlight and the Lithgow is getting a Burris e1 3-9x40 scope. I have a bipod on the way too.

That's the firing pin/bolt spring?

You can pick different options? :huh:

Naah trigger/sear spring, heaps of people hate the heavy trigger ( i haven't fired one ) and since its non user adjustable lithgow bandaided it with a factory installed spring.

There was a article on the web site a little while ago where lithgow arms were whingeing about people modifying their crossover triggers.

And apparently they are now available in a black finish and some teething issues are sorted so i might get one if i can find it

Ah yep, I remember their thing about people modding the triggers now that you mention it.

I have a CZ 455 American, great little rifle.
I've been asked: "How many guns do you need to have?" My answer remains the same: "One more."

I have the CZ455 with the 3 barrels, they feel solid and very well made. accuracy wise, the rifle is fantastic, I'm rubbish.

The only regret I have with the CZ is that I wished that I have gotten the CZ452 with synthetic stock and stainless barrel.
