I forgot to add this disclaimer:

About 2-3yrs ago, I committed to sub 1lb triggers in every rifle I can get them in. I’ve been going through my AR’s even to get them down under 2lbs even on 2 stage triggers. I sprung my HVR’s down to 1/2-1 1/2lbs. Naturally, many, many of my firearms can’t be made to break below 1lb, but if I can get there, I do. It’s bad enough for me now, even with a Geissele 2 stage, I’m bothered by a 4.5lb service rifle requirement.

Without question, that colors me with a pretty heavy bias regarding trigger quality. Crispness, consistency, and travel at both ends are all important aspects, but there are a lot of triggers out there pretty good in these aspects. Weight, while retaining security and positive tactile feel is very important to me.

It ain’t good for everybody, and I’m not saying anyone else should change their hunting rifles to an 8oz trigger, but it’s a bias I have.
