Had this conversation with Zack at Old Dominion yesterday, we were talking triggers about an up coming build. My history as always been after market triggers but basic stuff like trigger tech primary or Timney, I have quite a few of both. I asked Zack what his favorite trigger was and why, immediate response was a jewel. I told him I’ve always been Leary of triggers that go off with a couple ounces of pressure, I asked him if they were safe in his opinion and he gave me a detailed description of how installs them, the adjustments you can make, safeguards etc. After that conversation I understand better how they work and their dependability. Long story short I’m gonna try one on this build, a jewel set lighter than I’m use to, a few ounces. I don’t shoot benchrest or F-Class, just a hunter who enjoys reloading and shooting, I take a lot of young people hunting and shooting and the vast majority of my rifles have crisp two pound triggers because many of those rifles get used by people who don’t have much experience at all, it’s a safety thing but on the rifles I use and only I use I’m gonna play around with lighter triggers. I’m not sure id pay what that LGS was asking though, short supply or not.
