Rifle Basix compared to the Sharp SS Comp. Trigger

[tenring]

I have a SSS on my Savage BVSS, breaks nicely at 20 oz. Never had a problem with it. I have a RB on my REm 700, set to 8 oz, and have broken two of these at the sear. RB immediately replaced both at no charge, but I had to return the old ones.

An Experiment for those with a Rifle Basix Sav II trigger.
For all of you who use a Sav II replacement trigger and have it set lower than 12oz.
Please remove the ammunition from the rifle. Then point the muzzle in a safe direction.
Close the bolt so the rifle is cocked with the safety ON. Push the safety OFF and ON about 5 times.
Does your rifle fire on the third or fourth time the safety is pushed off and on without pulling the trigger.
I have adjusted many Rifle Basix Sav II triggers down to 4-6 oz. I have never had one set below 10-12 oz that would not fire by moving the Safety Off and on 3-5 times.
I personally don't recommend or install these triggers for Customers, too much liability .

I installed one on a 308 that I use for target only. Yes, if the safety is fooled with it will pop. No matter how hard I work the bolt, it won't fire. Mine measures at 6 oz. I remove the bolt to make the rifle safe. For hunting, Larry is right, I would not recommend lower than 16 oz. That's just me, YMMV. Don't need this to turn into what the last trigger thread turned into

just tried this on my 12BR. trigger is set to 5 oz. Pivot pin on the SAV2 is in the forward hole. I stopped working the safety after 10 tries with no fires.
