Default RE: Mossberg 695 trigger

i have both the rem 870 and mossberg 695 . the 870 is 20" smoothbore with rifle sights
shoots great to about 80 yards.
the mossberg, with simmons shotgun scope and lightfield sabots,shoots about 3 " groups
at 100 yards. trigger is a little stiff but how great a trigger do you need when max shots
are under 150 yards? i think you need to shoot the 695 a bit, the trigger will lighten up with use, a good cleaning, and lube job with any quality oil. don't get hung up on a
3# trigger pull. thats just a number and any trigger thats smooth and breaks crisply will do the job. with a good rest mine does occasionally put 2 of 3 in just about the same hole at 75 yards.give the gun a chance before you give up on it , i think you will be pleasantly surprised once you figure out what slugs it likes good shooting!!
