[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1368608, member: 10291"] While I am heavily involved in a variety of shooting sports(benchrest, PRS,tactical,etc), my primary focus has been LR hunting. The competitive sports are looked upon as practice for hunting in the off season. For this reason I have always used a “hard hold” method of shooting style because a free recoil style is generally not practical in hunting situations. My much preferred trigger for competition has been the Jewel, adjusted to 1.5-1.75#. After a lot of dry fire practice, I have been able to keep sub .2MOA with this weight and a hard hold. Unfortunately, the rather delicate design of the Jewel at this weight, IMO, is not amenable to harsh hunting conditions. My hunting triggers have generally been Timney and OEM triggers that are set about a pound heavier due to the freezing temperatures which can effect trigger control. Recently, I have been working with the Timney and Huber Concepts, 2 stage trigger models set at 1.5-1.75#. The two stage design seems to provide better control for me over the single stage in harsh hunting conditions, providing the best of both worlds. While costly, I will say that the Huber Concepts trigger is is quite impressive in both function, feel, and rugged design.
