Rifle ice/snow freeze eval 2025

Honestly if you want Sako/Tikka trigger reliability with a very light trigger it's one feature sets on the Sakos that works well. You can order the "set trigger" option on Sako 85's and 90's where you press the trigger forward before firing. You can set the single stage trigger from 2-2-4.4 lbs and then have the set trigger which goes off at 9 oz.

I have a set trigger on a Sako 85 and a Sako 90 and neither have given me any issues. There is always the possibility to accidentally bump it forward but it takes a bit more force to "set" the trigger forward than you'd think. It's also a bit of a deliberate and deviation from the normal shot process that it hasn't posed any field issues that I've seen yet... I've used multiple set triggers on multiple Sako 85's for varmint hunts/competitions and bench rest comps over the years and they've been great.

Regarding factory Tikka triggers as being more than light enough - I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person here who has experienced a Tikka trigger breaking even sooner than I expected - on target, but slightly before I thought it would, providing a genuine "surprise break" - not when I was looking for that.

Note that this was in a repeat-fire / rapid-fire / follow-up shot situation, so speed and adrenaline may have been slightly elevated, but even so ...

The Tikka triggers are plenty light enough.

I really like the feel of my KRG Midas on the Tikka 223. Picked up another for the 22 CM when it’s comes to keep continuity between the two. The two stage trigger feels really nice and I much prefer the wider trigger shoe compared to the fairly narrow factory one.
