[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 264756, member: 307"] jason J E is pretty much on. He's had a lot more experience than I. I have adjusted numerous factory 700 triggers they are pretty good if adjusted properly. I only had one that I couldn't get down to "around" 2lbs. It was a stainless job on a Sendero SF. I figured it had a burr or something on it and since it was another's rifle, I had no intention of tearing in to it to hone the burrs off. I suggested he get an aftermarket but was too cheap. I would at least try to adjust it down to a repectable weight with no creep/let off. Up until a month ago, the only aftermarket that I'd worked with were Timney's and that was for the Savage 110. I replaced several of these and recommend them. I recently installed a Rifle Basix on my Savage 112BVSS. It was very similar to the Timney for installation and adjustment. They are definately better than the stock Savage triggers. The Remington stock triggers are better than the stock (non-AccuTrigger) Savages'. Some folks like the AccuTrigger and some don't; I don't have enough time behind one to give a fair evaluation of them. I talked with a fellow shooter at a range in Wa. and he told me that all the aftermarket triggers were pretty nice, better than most factory triggers, but if I ever got behind a Jewell there would never be another trigger that would satisfy me. It said it was the Porsche of triggers. I don't know. Occasionally, Midway has the various aftermarket triggers on sale. I have bought them for as low as $69-70.00 and just recently paid $85.19 for the Rifle Basix (shipping included). Give one a go. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
