Whitworth Express 375 H&H Replacement Trigger
      #32770 - 08/06/05 10:28 AM

Does anyone make a replacement trigger for the Whitworth Express? The one on my 375 H&H is really rough, and I can't clean it up.

Mike

Evidently, you don't want to go to a gunsmith. I guess you have to call Brownell's and talk with somebody there and see if they can come up with something.

Timney Mauser type triggers start at $32.00 to $39.00, depending on who is selling them. Try midwayusa.com

And as the company says, the installation is so easy a spavined chimpanzee with myopia could do it. Mine has worked beautifully for years.

Mikeh416rigby,

How do you like the Whitworth? I've seen a few post here and they seem to get good press. Is yours an Interarms? Is there one era better than the others? I'm just interested since I've seen one for sale on the net and I'm interested in buying it.

For the money, IMO, I don't think a better value exists. The first 375 H&H I ever bought was a Whitworth Express and I was sorry I sold it. I bought another one 2 years ago, and aside from the balky trigger (which I've since replaced), I'm very happy with it. It shoots 300 grain Woodleigh's and Barnes X bullets under 1" at 100 yards. It was imported by Interarms, and has the original barrel band and 3 leaf express sights.

475Guy posted that comment : why?, I have no idea. I did in fact take the rifle to my gunsmith, but the trigger couldn't be adjusted to my likeing, so he replaced it with a Timney which is perfect.

OK, I guess I didn't understand the post. It just seemed that you were trying to do it yourself with the comment "trying to clean it up yourself." No harm, no foul.

My bad! I guess I wasn't clear enough on my post. You're right-no foul-the hand's part of the ball.
