Has anyone tried their BR trigger for the 700 actions. Says they go down to 2ozs. Have never seen the mentioned for BR.

I got one. It's good. Iv had it on three different actions. Two benchrest and one other target rig..
It goes down like it should. Not had any slam fires either.

Wellie-

Howdy !

My first BR trigger was an M-700 unit converted to 2oz by Ken Burns, back in the mid -70s.

* I replaced it after 3+ decades of use, with a 2oz Rifle Basix. Was quite happy with the trigger for use on my groundhog rifle, until...

My best friend gifted me a Jewell 2oz, which in comparison made the Rifle Basix feel
" gravel-y "... for lack of a better term.

No matter, as my friend let me try the 1.5oz Bix N' Andy he had on one of his BR rifles.
The clouds parted, the sun shined down'; the angels sang !

I have several of those triggers on my Remington 700 B-R rifles, and I have gotten them down to 4 oz. SAFELY after honing the contact points and replacing the springs with lighter springs.

I have yet to be able to adjust any of them down to 2 oz. and not have them fire if the gun is bumped!

Me personally, I prefer the pull weight on my rifles and handguns to be either 4 or 6 ounces, so it's not really a big deal to me.

I have found the best 2 ounce trigger to be the Shilen 2 oz. B-R trigger. I gave two rifles with these triggers, and both are exactly 2 ounces and will not fire if the gun is bumped.

Wellington -


OOPs ! Fat fingered it......

Was trying to say:

" Now I want a B N' A trigger " ! " C'est la Vie " !


Them groundhogs DK the difference. The Rifle Basix 2oz worked well, for what it was.

I hope they work better than the Savage trigger I had.

I'm pretty sure I took set skrew out of mine and bumped up the threads on purpose so it would stay put.

I have a few, mostly on varmint rifles, and I have one on a back-up F Class rifle. I have no complaints. Do they feel like the B&A on my primary competition rifle? No. They are also a third of the price. Their value proposition is solid - acceptable performance for a lot less. I've shot more than a few cleans with a Rifle Basix.

I have a couple on Savage Actions. The lowest I can get them is 4oz it is a nice trigger for the money and you don't have a lot of choice with Savage rifle. They are a little fussy to get adjusted right but once you get it right it's a pretty good trigger. With that being said they are no Bix & Andy or Jewll trigger in any way type or manner.
