How are the triggers on the Hawkeye?
Same trigger as the MKII. Not too good. I have a new Hawkeye in .223. The trigger has a spot in it that feels almost like a 2 stage AR trigger. I have not measured the poundage. With that said, I have shot groups under an inch with a couple of handloads after only 2 range sessions, so I feel good about the possibilities.
I plan to work on the trigger tonight. My MKII in 270 was pretty bad, but I was able to polish it and install a new spring that got the trigger to a crisp 2.5 pounds. I will try to do the same with this Hawkeye, but I do have a Timney that I can install if I'm not happy with the result of my work.
