[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 542841, member: 10178"] If it has the Accutriger you can adjust the trigger yourself. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. If the trigger will not allow the rifle to fire with the safety on when you slam the bolt closed or bounce the butt on the floor it will be OK. DO THIS WITH THE RIFLE UNLOADED. A little lesson many people need is this. You don't pull a trigger. You squeeze a trigger and if you know when the gun is going off you have pulled the trigger and not squeezed it. It needs to be a surprise when it goes off and you will make a good shot. If your Rem 700 had the stock trigger pull that came from the factory it most likely was around 5 to 7 pounds. If you go to a 2 to 4 pound trigger pull which many Savage Accutriggers have from the factory it will really seem light. You will shoot better with the lighter trigger weight. [/QUOTE]
