[QUOTE="Ranger Rick, post: 1966425, member: 111184"] I have a 700 BDL 7mm mag that I bought new at a dime store in 1976 for $199. That date range of triggers is fine. But I prefer trigger upgrades and put in a Timney trigger in 1987. I also had a smith bed the action and crown the muzzle (11 degrees). These changes gave me a 0.5MOA rifle. I now go with TriggerTech 700 Special triggers. For fun (not necessity) I will be putting in a Bartlein 26” 5R SS barrel with a gain twist to 1:8.7” to push some heavier bullets. [/QUOTE]
