RE: trigger marlin 17hmr
I've installedRifle Basix and Jardtriggers on 917's and wasn't impressed. They're a little better than the un-altered factory trigger, but surely not worth $90. I don't mind spending big dollars for triggers on my custom hunting rifles but I can't see spending 80% of the rifle's cost on a trigger.
917 factory triggers are simple to work. .015" off the sear,lightly roll thetrigger ledge, 1/4 coil off the sear and trigger weight springs, and you've got a 1lb, crisp trigger.
Of all my 22's and 17's I like my Marlin's the most. It's just hard to beat their barrels.
