RR nailed it...I also have a couple 700's and all of mine have had trigger work done on them (by competent smiths)...one of them has a ton of lead through it, and several hunts behind it...not once have I ever had a problem with them. They are some of the best quality and accurate rifles I have in my safe. Keep them clean, keep oil off the triggers and properly care for them (like any other rifle) and you will have a lifetime of safe service from one. There is a reason that the 700 action is one of the most recommended actions by gun smiths , if not the most, to build custom rifles off of. It's not coincidence...
