Adjusting trigger pull on Steyr Scout?

[Almur71]

Hi folks, does anyone know or have experience of adjusting the trigger pull on a Steyr Scout (presumably same as other Steyr actions?). Is this something that can easily be done by someone mechanically competent or definitely a job for the gunsmith? Finding the pull on my 7mm-08 a wee bit heavier than I'd like...

Thanks in advance!

Try the following link. It looks like you need to send an e-mail with a disclaimer for a pdf. Steyr Scout Tips and Tricks

Hope this helps.

Regards, Rob.

Easily adjusted by taking the action out of stock to access the adjustment screws IIRC. Chap at sportsman gun centre did my steyr classic (same sbs action) in front of me when i asked if it was adjustable.
You could easily diy it if you can work out which screw to turn, its been a while since mine was done so i cant offer any detailed advice!
Just take care with it, the guy who did mine checked repeatedly that it wouldn't fire by slamming the bolt shut hard or banging the butt on a hard surface.

Remove the bolt and it is the alan screw with the white paint on it.
