[QUOTE="Kiwi Nate, post: 368095, member: 8533"] I don't know why Rem changed to the X-Pro trigger, it can be a problematic unit. I have one which is adjusted down to 2lb and works fine regarding safety transition, no slam fire with fast cycling, no problems if the gun is bounced off the floor via the recoil pad. I have had others that were difficult to work with. I had one that shattered as I removed the action from the stock- that was a real surprise. I sent it to our Rem importer in NZ but he wasn't interested in helping so I had to replace the whole unit. The X-Pro trigger itself isn't made from 400 series stainless. Its some kind of brittle tool steel, cast in a mold. A good aftermarket trigger spring from Wolf is probably one of the better ways to keep the X-Pro safe at 2-3lb. Hard to explain but if you can bare with me- the rigger needs plenty of spring in it yet still be light. If the standard Rem spring is adjusted till its down light, there is sometimes simply not enough spring engagement to push the trigger back into place so that it engages the sear. [/QUOTE]
