[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 437753, member: 2693"] blacktails, I recommend you challenge yourself at the range and actually shoot a rifle or rifles with different pull wts on the trigger. Take about 12 shots off hand at a PICTURE target, say, of a deer, set up at 100 and 150 yards. If you've got any experience hunting, you surely have had a shooter animal pop up in front of you. It's happened to me almost every single year I've hunted. Take a 1 pound triggered rifle and pop off a few off hand and see how you like it when that trigger breaks at the exact moment you want it to and watch your accuracy. Then add a pound or 2 and do the same thing. See what happens. Obviously, I cannot speak for every person shooting a rifle but I personally noticed a remarkable difference. I HATE, REPEAT HATE, touching a trigger and it not going off when I want it to. Even my friend admitted he shot better with the 1 pound trigger but it's also the first aftermarket trigger he's ever had. He's used to factory 6-8 pound triggers. So you can imagine what that kind of change is like. I've been shooting light triggers for 15 years and the heaviest I'll go is 3 pounds and it is on my Ruger. It SUCKS!!! [/QUOTE]
