I am curious regarding the recommendation for Timney triggers. I've owned quite a few 700's and they're older ones. The only trigger I've had an issue with in the past is an old 700 '06 with a Timney trigger. Pull the trigger hard with the safety on and let off the safety and the rifle fires if loaded. I like the old Remington triggers and have had no experience with the newer ones so perhaps that's the reason for the need to change out the trigger. I've used Timney triggers on Mausers without a hitch. But I thought that Jewel made a much better trigger than Timney (expensive??). I've heard that Timney trigger housings were soft -- is that correct? Hey, I'm trying to learn here, no slam intended.
