A nice pair of rifles, regardless.
And, I completely agree - The new triggers are light-years ahead of the older versions.

Those rear sights tend to wander around a bit, due to the flimsy steel they use.

If you have more trouble, it may be worth swapping to the older 'fiber-optic' sights from the 800-series (if you can find some). The rear leaf and front base were plastic, but the rear base and spring didn't flex or wander as much and were secured with set-screws.
