Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Browning T-bolt

I have a Belgium Safari grade very very accurate!

Folks,

Standard models - Triggers Atrocious

This model - '2019 SHOT Show Special named T-Bolt SPEED', externally adjustable trigger, talked to a guy who has his set at 2.5#

I worked on the trigger of the synthetic one I posted.

Gotta break the seal, which probably voided the warranty. But it worked out pretty well.

Glad to hear they improved the trigger.

Good guns, accurate.

That's what I am being told...on this ltd production SHOT show special edition

The BL-22s and other models would GREATLY benefit with good or decent triggers.

Jard makes a replacement trigger and it actually replaces a lot of plastic with metal. I plan to get one but always seem to have a better place to spend $250.

I think the new model T-bolts have had an externally adjustable trigger since they began production. As I recall, there is an Allen screw adjustment right behind the trigger (been a while since I looked). I hope you are right, that they have improved it, because the one they have had isn’t “all that and a bag of chips.”

Correct on adjustable, but IME, not enough adjustment to make a difference. I did a good bit of work on mine to get it to a crisp 3#’s. I had to work on the trigger spring and sear engagement, the latter not that easy to do.

It is hard to get below 5# on the new T Bolts, but the trigger is so crisp that it feels less. My left hand T Bolt is superbly accurate and the trigger is manageable so I will not be putting a $250 aftermarket trigger in it.

I took that 5# trigger to 3#’s.

It can be done.

Did you remove the shelf or change the spring location. I took my trigger apart and removed the shelf and got about 3.5# with the action out of the stock. When I put it back in the stock, it went back up to 4#. I suspect the spring is rubbing the housing. It will get another look before I use it in the squirrel woods in mid-September.

Talked to a guy who had the SPECIAL Edition, SHOT Show model, he turned his trigger down to 2.5 #. He indicated it was an improved trigger, so I don't know but a call to Browning might confirm.

Also, broke the seal on the trigger, adjusted it myself. Much improved.

Yep, removed the shelf, also worked on the sear engagement.

Thanks.
