Trigger Tech vs Timney for Model 700

[codym]

Is one easier to install than the other, or is it more or less the same process? I've watched a few videos on the the Timney and it seems fairly straight forward.....

Both are pretty simple

Someone posted online once that they had issues with a TT failing safety checks once the pull weight was lowered.

I have only seen this once from that person, on Reddit I believe. Anyone had an experience like this?

They did have an issue early on with model 700 actions. But the issue has been resolved.

remingtons just have the two pins to knock out. customs typically have 2 screws that drop out the trigger hanger with the trigger on it. after the trigger hanger is out you can knock out the two pins to remove the trigger.

in my photo above you can see part of the trigger hanger in the top left of the pic. trigger hangers make it easy to remove the trigger fast for cleaning or repair. as to cleaning - I have never had any luck cleaning a jewell with ligher fluid or brake cleaner and air to get one working when it messed up. the only recourse it to take it apart. also when apart and cleaning I have never found the dirt that caused the problem. wipe down each piece and put it back together and viola a new one ounce trigger.

I have 2 Timney Hit triggers and they are awesome! Have 1 TT on a cooper and it’s fine. Haven’t noticed anything special about it.

2 Trigger Techs and 1 Timney, all have been good with zero issues. if buying again I’d get whichever is on sale.

Just bought a Timney hit on Optics planet for $213. The comparable TT Diamond is well over $300 most places.

Jewell makes a great trigger but if you are chasing max velocity and blank or pierce a primer you are in the Achilles heel of that trigger. Guys that push cases to death should not pursue Jewell. Most trigger failures happen at very low sear pressures. Guys chase 2# triggers and then wonder why they can't overcome the environment with the micro spring pressures.

Don't overlook Bix n Andy. The Dakota can be tuned to much lighter than the OP desires AND they are easy to clean.
