I run anything from 1- 1 3/4lbs. on all my hunting rifles and they are far from dangerous. Those with limited feelings in their fingers suffer from something I can't relate to.
Perhaps the feeling in my trigger finger is not as sensitive as yours. Certainly its not when its freezing!
In any case a one pound trigger is more likely to get bumped off if the rifle is dropped or falls.
A broad statement of a 1 lb trigger not being safe in the field is an ignorant statement at best.
I say a one pound trigger is not safe in the field under the conditions I mentioned. Thats all.
My varmint rifles I've ran at 8oz with never a AD. Pull on that trigger for a while and 1 lb feels like 5.
If you're gonna shoot light rifles, it's more than just the gun that must be light.
