Trigger comparisons

[taylorce1]

SSS triggers i still prefer the SSS. Fortunately I have several some still in the package

They were my favorite as well, I wish I would have bought more. BBR screwed us out of a great trigger.

Most I know shoot Bix or Jewel and in the 2 ounce range. I have the Savage and RB to 8 ounces.
It's what I'm comfortable with for my type of hold. Even though the pull gage gives Identical
weights, the RB breaks cleaner, thus making it feel lighter. The Jard I sent back failed the slam
fire test at 10 ounces. I shoot heavy guns (17lbs plus) so a heavier trigger is not much of a
problem. The guys shooting light gun at 10 to 12 lbs. rely on them light triggers.

Yes, My RB II has the sharpest, cleanest break. I was looking at a target that would have been a 50, but one flier dropped out the bottom into the 9 ring. Makes Me wonder if I got in a hurry and broke that shot just ever too hard? Yesterday I dry fired a stock blade trigger, set at 8 oz, and it felt like a ton. This stuff plays with your head at a match, and it’s just something else you need to block out. I long for a trigger where I can think break, and the shot is gone. It just takes more money for a trigger than I have paid for a lot of My rifles.

But, My favorite deer rifle sports a stock 1 screw trigger that breaks at a sharp/crisp 2 1/2 #’s, that I massaged Myself, and I am very pleased with it in that application.

Trigger decision depends on your shooting needs at the time.

Have not looked around. Can you buy a RB trigger these days?

Yes, both models are listed in stock at most places. Big differences in price for the same thing though.

Well I’ve spent more than two decades watching people go nuts over triggers. And the money people spend. It just always seemed insane to me. I can understand it on a dedicated target rifle for sincere competitors. I was never one. Only messed around in pistol competition for a time. And even that was just for fun. I started doing my own triggers seriously, when I started building 1911’s. Because that’s what ya do. There are no really good “drop in” triggers for them. Then I adapted that to all my other firearms. One thing I never understood was people $200-$300 for an AR15 trigger. It’s like everyone was always searching for a super light trigger. Just never seemed right to me on a Semi Auto battle rifle. But oh well.

Sorry for rambling. Just my thoughts. I need to get motivated to do some sand blast etching today.

My Savage 12 runs a RB set extremely light and can go off if I slam the bolt or smack the butt down into the bags with my fist.
my other bench rifle has a Bix &Andy set at 1 oz But will not AD
