remington trigger

[SCOTT78]

I bought a 6mm remington abouttwo weeks ago and finally got to shoot it today. I was very happy, so far i was shooting 100grain remington just to break it in and i getting a one hole group at 50 yards, so far so good. The trigger pull does suck though, can it be easily fixed or is it something for an experenced gun smith.

Scott, is easy to do all of the basic trigger adjustments your self. However if you trigger is inherently in poor shape, (meaning the surfaces are rough or uneven)there is nothing you can do about that by yourself.

A quality gunsmith with both adjust, and polish, a trigger...

Normally, I would have a perfect triggersmith to suggest to you, however he just suffered a severe accident and he will be backloged for awhile.

Note: Also keep in mind, the adjustment screws have a sealent over them, you will need to break those seals in order to do any work on the trigger...once those seals are broken...you will void the factory warranty on theentire gun...

You should have no problems getting a clean crisp trigger if it is in good shape still. I have gotten my model 700 .223 and newer 700 BDL down to about 3 pounds which is the way I like it as long as their is minimal travel and a crisp release.

Thanks for the info. guys. It shoots better than i thought it would with factory ammo, but there is no squeezing the trigger (it would take for ever lol) and i know once i dont have to jerk it will help me become a better shooter.

Not only will you get a custom quality trigger, his services will only cost you 40$ round trip...absolutly worth the price.

Unfortunatley,Jim was just in a major accident and I don't expect he will be taking any new orders for at least a few weeks...

The triggers can definatly be fixed yourself but I'm sure there would be a gunsmith close by to you that could do it for a good price. In my hometown the guy I took it to charged me 15 dollars to fix the trigger on my 700 and my mod 70.
