Trigger work

[mt terry d]

So my Tikka trigger has a bit of creep
Maybe my technique is wrong but when very slowly applying pressure
it moves a touch then stops and requires a little more to fire
It's set as low as the factory trigger can be set.
I don't want a lighter trigger, just want eliminate the creep.

I know pistoleers have been working on triggers forever but I haven't seen
anything for rifles except buying an aftermarket or putting in lighter springs.

Can something be polished ( I'm thinking jeweler's rouge and buffing wheel)
to achieve my intended goal and what piece(s) exactly would that be?

add a tad more pull weight back to it.

Hm. I can see the logic. I'll try that

Just cut to the chase- KRG Midas 2-stage. You will love it.

I just did the thing for the same reason. The Midas is great. Down side is: now I’m wondering how much I can get for a kidney to outfit my other Tikkas.
