[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 194028, member: 10178"] I like 2.5 pounds on my hunting rifles. I can fill the trigger and with a little squeeze BOOM. I do have one rifle with a 1 3/4 pound pull I have to be careful with. By all means do what devildoc said and check that trigger when it is cold. I set up a rifle once in the summer with a 2 pound trigger pull that passed the drop test. When I went hunting in the winter the first morning it was about 30* and when I loaded the rifle and closed the bolt it would not stay cocked, the firing pin would follow the bolt as it closed. I had to sit in the truck all morning while my hunting buddy went out and killed a nice 8 point buck. When we got back to his house I got out his tools and re-adjusted the trigger so it would work in the cold. It ended up at 2.5 pounds. [/QUOTE]
