Shilen triggers

[dtucker]

I have a rifle i am going to need to buy a trigger for. I am thinking of trying out a Shilen hunting trigger. I got on their web site and they seem like a nice trigger for 110.00 I like and mainly use Jewell triggers but thought i would like to try 1 out and wanted to hear any comments from you guys good or bad if you have any.

I like Shilen better than Jewell. I have two rifles with Jewells and one with Shilen. The Shilen just fills better.

I have shilens and like them alot.I feel the spring feeling when you pull into the jewell,kinda feels foreign to me. I dont know if I described the feeling of the jewell right but I really lean hard to the shilen.

I have a Shilen trigger in my remington 700 ltr and really like it.

I like Shilens on a hunting rifle.

Shilen is a fine trigger, no question. Lee

I have a Shilen competition model on my SPS Tactical and it has been crisp as the first day I put it on. It is set at 2 ounces and I use it for coyotes and punching paper. I bought another one for my 6.5 WSM build. I think Brunos has the best price on them.

I see that it is just the trigger. Where can i get a safety to fit it and will i need something for a bolt release?

If you can't use the parts on the original trigger Brownells has them.
