I would like to hear from people who have used Triggertech triggers. My friend fired my Tikka (2 pound pull) and is now dissatisfied with his original Remington trigger, which he claims has about a 7 pound pull.
If anyone can advise me on their experience with a Triggertech trigger, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
Editted to add that this is for a Remington 700 in .223

Just put one on a 700 .270 and it's awesome. Easy to install and adjust. Bob

I have converted about 8 rifles over to them if that says anything. You will love it!

Same as above. I have 3-4 of them so far and nary a complaint. Great shooting triggers and super easy to adjust!

I have 3 as of now. All are great. For the price they are very hard to beat. Compared to a few timney’s I have I find it hard to tell difference. Have mostly switched to the flat bald triggers and at 2 Pounds they feel great

Christensen Arms uses TRiggertech.
I like the one in my mesa.
Got another being put together with a bighorn origin build.

I want to thank all the responders for sharing their experiences. I truly do appreciate it.
Since our closest gun store is about 2 hours away, my friend and I will be making a road trip shortly. He always forgave his Remington trigger because the rifle was so incredibly accurate, but I guess my Tikka spoiled him😜.
Thanks again.

TriggerTech Primary is all you need for a hunting rifle. They are the best trigger out these days for a hunting rifle.

I prefer the Calvin Elite to the Trigger Tech. Calvin elite was more money however. Both a substantial improvement over the stock Remington trigger. Both are excellent.

I find them close to my Jewel triggers but they are far better at handling grit and gunk. I have not used some others like the Bix & Andy but for hunting use the TT are very good.

I have always used Timney triggers. On a recent build, my gunsmith talked me into trying a TriggerTech product.
He put in the basic, bottom of the line, TriggerTech trigger. It is far better than Timney. I am sold on TriggerTech.

Waiting for my Calvin elite right now. Whoever said that TT is great for the money is making me scratch my head. The TT diamond is $100 more than Calvin Elite. The B&A are more yet as are the Huber concepts.
I've never had a CE I didn't like. No complaints with the TT other than price

Not everyone is talking about the high end version of either brand.

Just put one on a Weatherby. One of the two best triggers I have ever pulled!

I for one do not recommend them if you have more than one rifle. I put one in an AR-15 and one in a Remington 700. I am now up to 4 of their triggers and trying to sell unneeded stuff to buy more. They have made me dislike most of my other triggers. Exceptions being SSG with double sets and a Tikka 595. They are addictive.

I’ve got a Diamond and a couple of Primaries, great triggers. I like my Calvin Elites too.

I know they are all the rage...but... the only one I had (clue there) would not adjust to remove creep.
Returned it to Brownells and bought a Timney, which works.
