I noticed the impact of hits to the sides of the bowling pin plates was causing some twist to the hinge plates. So I added a thicker piece of steel to the whole area and tied to the rolled hinge pin tube area to stiffen it up. Will see how well it holds up with lower power centerfire loads.
The spring tension was a bit too much for good target movement with rimfire loads and the tension is a minimum for target reset.
Guess who just had a birthday? We did. Henry Rifle Forums has made it to the 10 year mark. Thank you to all members, I'm glad you are here!
