is it possible to ajust the trigger weight on my howa 1500 varminter 22-250 if so how

Congratulations - the Howa 1500 is an excellant investment for the money. \n\nHowever..\n\nDo not tamper with the adjustment screws on the trigger assembly. The screws have been properly set and sealed at the factory.\n\nAny attempt to adjust ANY trigger can result in improper safety operation and should be done by a qualified gunsmith.\n\nIf I recall some Howa 1500's were recalled for a modification to solve improper bolt replacement. You should take it to a qualified gunsmith anyway to determine if your serial number falls in the recall.

I wouldn't waste my time with JT. They're cheaply made. There are better guns in that price range.

That one will take a lot of fabrication.  Once built, you can useSemi trailer mud flaps, cut to fit for the "absorber".  That is what I use to do with my 64 Dart with a 396 CuIn.

Volquartsen makes a good receiver, regardless of what metal it's made of. If you're shooting off a bench, then it matters very little how heavy the receiver is. Get the stainless in that case; it's less expensive and will last longer. Of course, "longer" is measured in tens of thousands of rounds.\n\nBy the way, make sure you get the threaded receiver and marry it to a threaded barrel if you're talking about a 10/22 receiver. The original 10/22 is held together with this wedge that pulls the barrel into the receiver, but it's not a great fit. Threaded barrels take care of any slop and really improve your accuracy.

you can get it changed at the paintball field, they have the little machine, and you put your barrel on the top and fire a shot and it'll will time it. then all you need to do is adjust it to your preference. but i usually have it all the way turned. the balls goes faster and hurts more. lol.

Take a look at the gun manufactures website and only use ammo that they recommend.  Seriously, you could ruin your gun or hurt yourself if you play around with other stuff.

Yes. Should be on the back, just underneath the cocking bolt. Should be a little dial with a hex screw in it. Loosen the hex screw and turn the knob. When you get the velocity you want, tighten the hex screw back down.

get a bigger one like a 3000 srx 74850585855948404

Have it done by a COMPETENT gunsmith. This is something you don' t want to take chances with.

Bound's hubby here:\n\nFirst, let's take the Army principle, very infantry proof, if it isn't broken, don't take it apart! That being said...\n\nThere are two ways to take a firing pin apart. Both, eventually, require taking your 14 apart. The first way requires the use of a Garand combination chamber cleaning tool (an M-10 tool may also work, but I've never used one). \n\nInsert the chamber brush into the chamber, \nhave the "arm" pointed at 3:00, \nclose the bolt on the chamber brush, \nas you rotate the arm counterclockwise the back of the chamber brush base will catch on the extractor, \nleave the bolt closed and lift the extractor out of the bolt [if a long pin does not appear, you broke the extractor], \nslowly pull the bolt back, you will have a small ball bearing and spring plus the ejector and spring [both under pressure] that will come out of the bolt face, \nremove the op rod from the bolt, \ntake the receiver out of the stock, \ntake the bolt out of the guide rails, \nthen you can slide the firing pin out of the bolt.\n\nTo put your rifle back together just reverse the above steps. \n\nThe other way is a little more expensive. Fulton Armory has a handy-dandy bolt tool for the M1/M14. It sells for about $45. \nYou take the bolt out of your rifle,\nput the bolt in the bolt tool,\ncompress the lever on the tool like a nutcracker,\ntake out the extractor,\nease the pressure on the arm, \ncatch the detente pin and spring (the ball bearing),\nremove the ejector and spring, \nremove the bolt from the tool,\nslide the firing pin out.\n\nAgain, to put it back together just reverse the steps.\n\nPlease, do not tell us that you are deployed and this is your issue battle weapon! If it is it sounds like the "Army way".\n\nJust a tip when you sight in your rifle... do not rest the bullseye on the post like a lollipop. Put the sight post in the middle of the bullseye. This will increase the chance of hitting your target everytime. If the bullet hits where you plant the front sight, no matter what is going on wherever you put the front sight you will hit what you are aiming at (provided you have the right distance dialed in). \n\nGood luck and good hunting.

My guess is that you have to partially insert it (as far as it goes) and pull the trigger, the front of the bolt might be catching on the sear, so thus you have to pull the trigger to let it go forward.\n\nI would also assume that if it came with literature of any sort that it would atleast have a basic break down precedure.

try Numrich Arms in NY, they have a website with diagrams.

+ It is pretty simple,\nTake out the Magazine (either kind Drum or Stick)\nHold So bullets will face forward and slide them in one by one all facing forward. Just press each one down and it clicks in around the edge. Most are Thompson 45 Cal Semi's. You might find a collector edition single, or a played with auto (but that would only get you into more trouble) \nYou know that now that you have asked, If something bad happens you will be found.\nGood luck (Hope you are a planing on being a re-en-actor or something and only using blanks. If so you will need to alter the muzzle so that the blow back is strong enough to push the bolt back)

you're talking .223 here aren't you.  the heavier bullet will retain more energy than a lighter bullet.  imagine getting hit with a ping pong ball, a marble and a ball bearing, each traveling about 100 mph.  the ball bearing will hurt more because it has more energy in its weight.\n\nhowever, the benefits of a lighter bullet is that it will go faster and will drop less at shorter to medium ranges.  the ligher bullets are good for varmint shooting.  the heavier bullets are good for larger animals.

Any modifacations you do to your gun could damage it to much air will blow the seals check with the manufacturer to see what they recomend

I'm not impressed with the .223 round. No recoil, all-plastic can't beat a bad guy with it if you need to. When I'm firing my weapon I disassociate from my emotions, but my Peacemaker does have a little kick, had a Glock .40 kicked worse than my .45 so I sold it. My 1911 I can hit just about anything

I would search online for a New board for your specific gun. It will increase your speed by a good amount.
