[QUOTE="jpndave, post: 2925884, member: 5437"] Welcome to the forum from Northern Utah! On the trigger, you can't go wrong with TriggerTech and I would absolutely go that route. BIx N Andy are also excellent. I don't own a Bix yet but have shot them and wouldn't hesitate to run one. With the TriggerTech different models it's all about the pull weight you prefer. On my chassis where I want a very light trigger I run a Diamond two stage set 1lb or a little less total (both stages somewhere near 4oz/12oz-) that gives me the ability to cover the trigger without unintentionally sending a round. Especially w/cold weather or some adrenaline/excitement. On hunting rifles I don't go that light and run a Primary in my little Kimber 84M 6.5CM (because they don't have a Special for the Kimber). I have a Special for the Defiance CRF 7mm PRC in the works. Leave a little cushion on the bottom end of the weight range you want to run as the pull weight adjustment isn't quite as precise as you approach the limit. If you want a 2lb trigger any will be fine. If you want 1.5lb, go Diamond or Special (at 1.5lb you won't be able to tell the difference between a Diamond and a Special but "maybe" with a Primary). If you want to get very close to or under 1lb go Diamond. There's no difference in feel other than the ability to go light. No disadvantage to the Diamond other than $ but you have to stay under 32oz pull. On the trigger lever/shoe/bow itself. I really like the flat with the chassis. On hunting rifle I prefer the pro smooth curved. I don't care for the grooved. It depends on the stock and how vertical the grip is and bottom metal shape. [/QUOTE]
