Trigger tech makes an excellent trigger. Very adjustable, crisp and clean break, no creep. Most of all, they are safe when adjusted very low. They also are consistent, very little deviation to the set pull. I truly believe they have about put jewell out of the trigger game except in circumstances where you need a 2oz trigger pull (benchrest).
I would say go with a trigger tech. Which one depends on you. I like the diamond, however I am very familiar with extremely light triggers. The special is pretty nice too, and half the price. Just doesn’t go as low. I have one on my seekins 7prc and I decided I’m happy with it, no reason to upgrade to a diamond. It’s a common misconception that lighter triggers are dangerous and can release the sear on their own from the slightest vibration. Sure, they are more likely to go off if something brushes against them, but if you have proper trigger safety and do not pack them around with a loaded rifle without the safety on, then you will be fine. Always treat a gun as if it’s loaded. These trigger techs are incredibly safe. You can adjust one down and slam the bolt shut as hard as you can a dozen times and bounce the butt off the ground another dozen times and they don’t drop the sear.
I would say go with a diamond if you plan to do a lot of target shooting or if you’re comfortable with light triggers I really like them even when hunting.
If the rifle is mostly a hunting rifle and you’re not super comfortable with a crazy light trigger, go with a special.
I think a timney has a similar feel but they often do not adjust very low, they are however manufactured for many different platforms.
I have never played with a tikka trigger, I know they don’t go much below 2lbs without the aftermarket spring. But I hear they feel excellent and are comparable to trigger tech.
