Precision trigger

[califoriahunter]

Ok so I'm building a lr-308 but need some thought on what triggers you guys like I'm leaning toward a timney but would love to pick so brains!

I chose a Geissele SSA-E for my DPMS RFLR-308.

that's like asking guys what barrel they suggest.

What you want is probably greatly dependent on how you want it to function.

I've got a modified factory trigger with a 3lb spring kit that cost about $35 to get into the sweet spot. I use that on my integrally suppressed 9mm after I pulled it out of my precision 243WSSM.

Put a 3lb Timney into my 243WSSM and it's a sweet set up, but pretty hard to justify more than double the cost of a very well modified factory trigger.
I just don't see it. Not taking anything away from Timney, but once you get any improvement over "FACTORY" you start hitting diminished return.
The improvement you get from a $35 mod, to a $150 drop in, to a $250 ultra awesome...isn't really that big of deal to me.

I've got a 2 Stage NM in my Armalite and that's nice as well, but there is no way I'm dropping $200+ on trying to improve it.

Geissele SSA-E unless you like the ability to adjust the first and second stage pull. Then Go with the Geissele DMR.

Geissele SSA-E

Geissele's are hard to beat, but pricy. For less than half the price, a JP Ent. Competition adjustable trigger is pretty good. Mine's tuned to just over 3lbs, it does have just a touch of creep(only notice on the bench, and you've really got to be looking for it), but breaks very crisp.

JP Enterprises all the way.

Another vote for JP.

I just got the Timney skeleton 3lb. It breaks almost perfect just a bit too heavy on the pull weight yet for my liking. I might have it massaged to under two pounds soon.

just installed a geissele high speed national match in my maten this week and WOW... cant wait to get her out to the range, but it is like no other ive tried.

I installed a Geissele SSA-E myself in my Colt LE6920 M4 and love it.

I have a windham wraponary varmint setup and can't justify dropping 200+ on a trigger. Is there a trigger mod I could do to get a 3lb ish pull? The heavy trigger sucks. I'm new to the ar world and want a lighter pull. How would the RRA trigger work?
