[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 226322, member: 412"] Has your original trigger been adjusted? If not, Pre-X Mark Remington triggers can be adjusted to be quite good. If you go the replacement route, for a hunting rifle I prefer Shilen with Timney being a close second. I've used a couple of Rifle Basix triggers and don't like them at all. I have a couple of Jewel triggers and @ very light target rifle pull-weights they're great. I've found them finicky @ 2+# hunting rifle pull weights. Replacement of the triggers is pretty straightforward. Drift out a couple of pins pull the old trigger, line everything back up and drift the pins back into place. Adjustments however are at least, best done under the supervision of someone who knows WTF is going on. They're very easy to adjust safely, and they're also very easily adjusted to not be safe. People get "greedy" with light pull weights and minuscule creep and over-travel amounts and pretty soon the rifle is going off when you cycle the bolt or push the safety from "safe" to "fire".
