[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 982111, member: 52437"] OK so I just noticed on another forum that remington has recalled all its 700 line rifles with x-mark pros due to the trigger. I bought mine last year so I am pretty sure it is one of the recalled rifles (it is a 700 montain ss and does have the X mark pro trigger). Well, after reading some more it seems the recall will take between 10-12 MONTHS!!! that's crazy! Personally, i think my rifle is ok...I have shot it probably about 100 times and the safety never caused a round to go off, but I hate taking risks and would prefer it to be safe (yes I know the 10 comandments of gun safety). So now I am contemplating getting a timney trigger so I wont be out my rifle for a year, especially with hunting season right around the corner. I have read some threads on some timney's causing issues with bolt (grinding noises) while others did not fit the stock or bottom metal well...I am wondering what everyone's take is on this? I am considering jewell trigger but they are much more expensive and much harder to find and have heard issues with those as well. I am not a competition shooter, this is strictly a hunting rifle out to 400 yards. [/QUOTE]
