MasteriflemanQuery Tip Burns. I saw him adjust one today but didn't pay enough attention to tell you how. He wasn't able to get it under 3 1/2 lbs.

srtraxThis may be the same sight as above, but I found this one some time ago. I like my hunting triggers in pounds NOT ounces! Around 3 pounds is as low as I'll go on a customers hunting rifle and that is where I like mine also.

gumboot458Wow , Thanks for the replies all ...... This one is a fur rifle so it needs to be nice and light , ,,2 lbs or less .......... As long as it is 100 % safe 1 lb is great ...Sure does make hitting running animals alot easier ........ I hope I don,t have to put an aftermarket trigger in this ....... I,m sure wishing I had got a Ruger 77 mk II VT so far ............

gumboot458Andre ;;;; Thanks for the link .... As I,m a Ruger and CZ guy .I didn,t know which screw did what and had to read the post a few times .... .. These triggers are very good but the factory pull weight was comparable to the weight of the barreled action ...... I like the engagement ect but the weight was unbearable ......I hope it keeps the weight adjustment I set it at ... Thanks again ..
