Trigger Opinion

[msuttonrn]

Since Jewel triggers have become extinct, what brand would yall suggest. I need a 700 trigger with top right safety and no bolt release. No 2 stage triggers!! For an only off a bench prairie dog gun, lite trigger pull.

Timney HIT or Calvin Elite or a Trigger Tech Diamond.

Diamond. I like it enough I sold my old jewels to get more.

I have a rifle basix set to 2 oz and it’s not bad. I really like my shillen 2oz I think it feels as good as the jewel

will they adjust down to 1.5 - 2 oz like the Jewel? I think I might have one in one of my Vudoo’s, a red trigger.

Bix goes lower, but I’m not resetting my engagement every time I clean the trigger, which is recommended and encouraged to be done regularly.

I understand that’s what some guys will have to do though. Bix makes a great trigger, just not great for my needs.

Sounds like a Diamond. No, they will not adjust down to 2 .oz. They are smooth and reliable. I have one in my Vudoo.

Look at Bix N Andy or Timney in their HIT Series.

Bix makes a BR trigger that will go down in the 2oz range.

The TT Diamond can get to 4 ozs. BUT it may take some rounds to get there. I was getting slam fires at 10 ozs , called TT and was told it may several HUNDRED rounds before the springs took a set. I've never had to break a trigger in like that before. It didn't take several hundred, but it took a few.

Define lite haha.

I also get slam fires in my new TT when set to 4oz. that's good to hear it worked itself out.

That being said the TT diamond is a great trigger. Incredibly crisp break. Zero take up. Feels amazing. I also have a shilen that goes down to 2oz but it does not have a safety. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe those triggers come with a safety. Mine also has a wee bit of creep that I can't take out, but I love that trigger too.

Been suggested on her multiple times but the Bix n Andy tac sport pro X will be my next trigger. Talked with a few guys in here that have replaced their TT diamonds with the Bix. Goes down to 3.5 oz and has options that the diamond does not.

I got my First Diamond TT last year. That thing is crisp! I have another one waiting for my next build.

When the issue of Jewel going away became a problem , I spoke with some very high-ranked shooters art my local range , ( Ben Avery ) and they suggested Shilen . I purchased one as a "Back-up" , and very happy with the choice . Almost the same "feel" as my Jewel . Have noticed no difference in my Panda , or on the Target .

I had an older Shilen. bought from a friend some years ago. He had no use for it, as it didn't have the bolt release for a 700 action. I fitted it on a Barnard S action - my first FTR rifle. Superb!. I really would not change it out. I have several good triggers - and the old Shilen is among the best.

I am a fan of the Trigger Tech also. I'll prob try a Flavio next go around just to say I did.
