Rifle Basics Triggers

SHIM the trigger. Don't try to reduce trigger pull without shimming side play on the Accutrigger.

Reduce blade force but keep it to 25 to 50% of final TOTAL pull.
(the blade spring pushes on the trigger)
2 oz on the blade, 7oz total pull, shimmed to prevent false drops.

Went to the range to try some offhand shooting using my .22 LR Remington 40X with a just installed RXERV3K Rifle Basix trigger. The factory set trigger pull measured 7.7 ounces. That amount of trigger pull seemed good to me for this rifles intended use so I made no adjustments.

Like I wrote earlier this was offhand shooting, I shot 50 rounds with no problems. So far this trigger seems to be what I was looking for. Time will tell. I will try shooting a 50/50 card soon and post the results. I have two Turbos for 50/50 shooting so I don't expect any exceptional results with the 40X, just would like to shoot a respectable card.

That's my findings when the Sav-2's came to market. They sent me
a replacement, and never installed it. I sold it to Bojo for a hundred
bucks, to use at Ridgeway. He's on the site. Maybe chime in to see
how he's doing with it after a years use......

Fuj:

That trigger I bought off you is on one of my savages. I like it better than the factory accutrigger for sure.
My only gripe is that it has some travel in in before the bang. It’s light travel, but my span of attention and my polish decent keep me from adjusting it out.


I need to buy another one this year for my other rifle though.

Thinking about ordering up a JARD.

I shot a couple of 50/50 cards today with the Remington 40X and the Rifle Basix trigger. No big deal, decent conditions with a light variable wind and some decent ammo for this rifle. The scores were nothing exceptional, low 240's. The rifle is a basic 40X with the factory stock and no tuner, just the RifleBasix trigger.
The trigger is not a Jewell, but, that was not what I was looking for. Since I shoot this rifle offhand a lot I needed a trigger with more than a few ounces of pull, so for benchrest it is a compromise and much better than the original trigger. No issues with this RifleBasix trigger, the pull remains at just under 8 ounces.

I have been using rifle basix triggers for over 15 years and have them in all my guns! I have never had a problem at all and I have some down to 4oz. They never go off until I want them to. Also they are great to work with.
