Anyone have the new TC

[Coach]

Triumph Bone Collector MZ? I'm thinking of getting one so if anyone has one I would like to know how you like it...thanks

I have a regular Triumph, not the Bone Collector edition. I really do like it so far.

 

[Coach]

Thanks DD, I didn't get any feedback but I went to the shop today and decided to order one...got a good deal, better than any I've seen advertised and a good deal on the DOA Bushnel scope too (this is just the same scope as the Nikon with the exception of the price and the small set of antlers in the scope that give you an idea of the size of the deer you are shooting at...of course that is a gimmick but the price wasn't)

Same here.

Main reason I got it a couple years ago was because it may very well be the easiest ML to clean among the decent quality offerings. But now with the Blackhorn 209 powder, being very "easy to clean" is no longer such an issue.

It's a nice ML, but there's one thing about it I just don't like:
Having to pull back a hammer.
I prefer a tang or crossbolt safety.
This is not a huge deal, but considering you can get a Savage for not a whole lot more . . . . .

One other thing:
Occassionally, I have had trouble getting the breech to close properly, especially when trying to do it quietly.

Other than that, you'll probably be very pleased with it.

no, cause my next ML will be a Savage. im a savage rifle man, might as well convert all the way around!! lol.

but you couldnt go wrong with a T/C, they make a good rifle.

[Coach]

Thanks fellas....I went down to the gun shop and talked to the guy about it and got some pricing. I was surprised he was cheaper than Cabelas. I'm still thinking on it...any other info would be helpful...like if someone could just talk me out of it!!!!!

I own a Triumph and so far I really like it. I am accumulating different powders and bullets and going for some serious shooting very soon.

I just bought the Bone Collector. I'm having trouble getting my Leupold scope sighted in. I'm using Warne mounts, and have run out of adjustments, both on windage and elevation, at 50 yds, shooting 3-4 inches high and 3 inches right. I have double checked all screws and the base to make sure everything is tight. Don't hknow if I got a scope, mount, or worse , gun issue. I like the feel of the gun , the ease the breech plug is removed. I am shooting BH209, 100 grs. i tried sevearl different bullets to see if I could get a better sight in at 50 yds, but nothing seemed to help. I'm going to see if I can borrow a buddy's spare scope and see if the problem is still there. I have never used Warne mounts, usually I use Leupold. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
