adjusting Remington 710 trigger to 1.5#

[white russian]

I love my Remington 710 in 30-06. I have an AWC .30 Thundertrap Suppressor on it that works great with the 8-40x56 Tasco Target Scope. The only problem is that on 400-600m shots I notice the reticle tremble just before the sear release. I have searched every possible source that I can think of to find how to lower the trigger weight. If you have any suggestions, please email me directly gunny123456@yahoo.com
Thanks for your help

My next purchase will be a Savage 16FSS w/ AccuTrigger in 300WSM, but for now I need to work w/ what I have.

You can't polish a turd.

I am aware of the various views on the Rem 710. Please just comment if you know how to adjust the factory trigger or know of an aftermarket trigger that can be installed.
As I already stated, my next purchase will reflect a widened view of the centerfire market.

Can't be done.

If you wanted a long range target rifle you should have done your research before wasting money on the 710. They aren't cheap.

With any REM. if you mess with the trigger, It will VOID the warranty!

710 has no SEAR and no moving parts in Trigger assembly. The trigger is an electrical switch.

What are you talking about?

You are talking about the etronix, not the 710.

From Remington's site:

Here's how the Model 700 EtronX works: The electronic fire control has no moving parts other than the trigger. No sear to be released. No firing pin to strike the primer. Instead, an internal electrical circuit sends a charge through the system to our new electrically responsive primer. Closing the bolt on the cartridge establishes contact between the firing pin and the primer. When the trigger is pulled, the electronic circuit sends an electrical pulse through the firing pin directly to the primer. This all happens in less than the blink of an eye. Ignition is even faster, with near zero lock time (.0000027 seconds, actually), which virtually eliminates the effects of barrel movement after pulling the trigger. In fact, the bullet exits the barrel of the Model 700 EtronX before a mechanical firing pin could even hit the primer in a conventional rifle. The system also creates an exceptionally crisp trigger pull with 36% less travel than standard triggers.

The 710 has a crappy potmetal single-stage trigger similar to the one that came on teh 788, except not near as good.
