The twin set triggers are horrible when unset, and too light for hunting purposes (cold hands etc) when set - although tey do look nice.

Sorry HeymSR20, but I disagree. All the MSch rifles I have owned with double set triggers have been excellent (3 in total over the years) They are I'd say somewhat heavy when unset, and there is more creep than on modern rifles, but when set although light, they're absolutely fine. Even in cold weather in the Highlands.

You have to remember, you're only 'setting' the trigger when the crosshairs are on the quarry, then just a light touch later the beast is taken.

I speak with experience of 32 or so years deerstalking in Scotland (Stags & hinds) including firsthand experience of using MSch 6.5x54 M1903 stutzens, other Steyr Mannlichers in both .270 .243 all with double set triggers and currently my Blaser K95 Luxus .25-06 single shot rifle.

My recent acquisition of another MSch M1903 'Takedown' has yet to be sorted out, but when done, will find itself in Scotland later this year. I have another appointment with red stags to keep! (It will be MV & ME legal)
