Let's talk triggers

With this new rifle build (6 Dasher) I'm gonna need a trigger of course. So here are my options.
(1) Jewell has served well in the past, but I hear they now need be worked on to function smoothly.
(2) kelbly in the beginning I herd they had some troubles, does anyone know if this has been corrected and who's using them on a Bat action.
(3) Bix'n Andy I haven't heard much anything about them in any negative way but they are expensive. Anyone here have any feedback on this trigger as well?

What I'm seeking is best option for a 600 yard gun build with the best consistency in trigger pull and craftsmanship.
 
I have a BAT 3L machined for an Anschutz trigger, IMHO its better than most anything else out there.

It's on a 308 Palma rifle with well over 3000 rounds fired. So far it's been rock solid and has not required readjustment.

BAT did the machining I think at the time it cost me an extra $50.

I use a Bix'n Andy on a BAT 3LL F-Class rifle. It's as good as a reworked Jewell and is very consistent. It is also very expensive. The best path is probably to send a Jewell BR to Speedy Gonzalez for rework.
 
He moved back to Texas, in Denton. The only contact I know is SG Rifles' Facebook page. Sorry. [br]

Speedy also did an interesting review on the new-ish Farley Kinetic trigger. Seems like some interesting improvements, although I'm not sure when it will be available or how much it will cost.
 
+2 on the (Xtreme/OH) triggers. I have 3 and about to be 4 with one for my XTC space gun. Tom, the owner really stands behind his product. He isn't happy until you are.
I hope this helps,

Two stage triggers are out of the question and based on the info I read the min. They can be adjusted down to is 10 Ozs, this may be ok for you guys who shoot f class or the likes I'm in need of 1oz and less for benchrest shooting such as the triggers I have mentioned. Thanks though for your input they just won't fit my criteria of shooting.

The Bix and Andy triggers are very nice. I have plenty of Jewels, and polish them my self, but I am starting to replace them now.

I have a Flavio Fare trigger from Italy on a BAT BR rifle and it is excellent. Very light, and very crisp. But I dont know how easy they are to get in the USA.
