[QUOTE="cowboy, post: 533472, member: 8833"] My son and I both shoot customs built off 700 actions. He used a timney on his and I used rifle basix. This spring he started noticing a little half click type of action on his trigger when he was on the bench but not all the time. We took it in to the smith that built both rifles and his response was "You're starting to get quite a few rounds through this thing and your trigger is showing it." Long story short - he offered to put a jewell in and gave him credit for the timney. He turned to me and said we may as well do yours also and he allowed me the same deal. On the rifle basix - I have no rocks to throw at it. The only problem was it varied from 2.1 oz. to 2.5 oz on a fancy digital trigger scale. I never had one bit of trouble with it and it never once let me down. It has seen lots of miles on horse back as well as over hell and dale. It didn't have much creep and was quite crisp - but like you already know, it's not a jewell. After going to the range and shooting - this is the first jewell I've owned - I'm having second thoughts. I counted up the number of rifles in the safe and multiplied times 250 bucks and said I sure would have saved a lot of money by not trying out a jewell. I would have no problem going with a another basix but that timney trigger should not have done what it was doing. [/QUOTE]
