[QUOTE="Bull45cal., post: 2549067, member: 9768"] You guys can say what you want about needing light triggers, but I hunt with 2-2.5lb triggers. My buddies are going to the 10oz triggers we use in competition, but I can't do it. I have had a premature fire on a deer I ran down, because I couldn't hardly feel trigger. I had the reticle on the deer, but my jacket was bunching up under the butt of the gun. I moved my elbow to unbunch the jacket, and it went off. Thankfully, I learned a long time ago, not to put my finger on the trigger until I was ready to shoot, and aim small, miss small, therefore I still killed my game. However, it opened my eyes. After running through the woods to reach an ambush point, because my prey had alluded me through the fog at my stand, my adrenaline was pumping, and that trigger got super light. Just remember that as you choose a trigger weight. [/QUOTE]
