Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Trigger for Remington 700 ?

For hunting, I have Rifle Basix, Timney, and Trigger Tech. All are good and have served me well.
I had a Jewell trigger but did not like the thin blade on a hunting rifle.

Timney is a few miles down the road, every rifle I own that doesn't come with an AccuTrigger gets a Timney. Great product, awesome employees

I have a few Timneys . Love them ,but will give trigger tech a try next time just for kicks.

I have some TT and Timney. Both good, I prefer the former.

If you can get Andy, aka 805 hunter to do one up, they’re badass. Got a bunch of em. 👍

Walker trigger?

With apologies to the OP, but does anyone know if TT makes a one for a 788?

FYI, TT has replied they have plans to build for other models in the future but no dates at this time.

I had a flawless job done on the factory Walker but this site scared me off it after years of great use. I replaced with a Trigger Tech. Had to cut a tiny bit of wood out of the way. Not sure I like it any better but ... only gripe for me is that I wish the safety felt a little more positive. It feels like you could too easily take if Safe without knowing it. Rifle will end up going to my son so I wanted it as safe as possible.

I've used plenty of Timneys (510 and CE), TT, Jewel, Shilen, etc., and my preference is the TT Special. I had one issue with sear engagement that ended up being caused by incorrect bolt timing on a M700, and TT worked with me and went way above and beyond to help me get the issue resolved, including custom making a trigger with altered sear engagement (free of charge) to keep me going until I could get the bolt timing fixed.

Both my competition rifles have TT Specials, and both have thousands of rounds on them with nary a hiccup nor a cleaning.

I have RIFLE BASIX & TIMNEY triggers on a few of my Rem 700's and they work just fine.

I love the Walker trigger and that's what i have in all my Remington's with the exception of a Remington LTR and it came with a 40X in it. I'm 60yrs old and have used the Walker trigger for over 40yrs with zero issues. Regardless to what i've read and what NBC says i've never had one to accidentally fire unless i pulled the trigger. I'm not saying it hasn't happened but fortunately it hasn't ever happened to me. I'll keep my Walker triggers, in my opinion it's an excellent trigger when tuned and adjusted right, but you know what they say about opinions .... everybody has one .

On a side note, my brother replaced the Xmark trigger in his Remington with a Timney and really likes that one.

I put a trigger tech special in my 700. They were running a Black Friday deal for 20% off I think it was. I have zero complaints so far. Very smooth trigger. Optics planet had the primary model on sale for $99 and after the email list 10% off I got 2 of them shipped to the house for $180. Sounds like my brothers plan on taking those off my hands now.

I the wold Walker if worked on by a good gunsmith. Timney, Shilen, Kepplinger Single Set, Jewell, TT Special. What I like about the TT is I can easily adjust pull in the field if my old hands get stiff with cold, depends on the hunt. I also like the fact it will work when "full of gunk". Example, I love the older Shilen, but one time it would not budge. Turns out it a "sagebrush leaf flake" tie it up! So, out here I've had more of an issue with dust/debris than rain/snow/freezing/rust in them. So, for me, it was a big selling point. Good luck to you Pard.
