TT is the easy button. As stated above it's only real character flaw is the solid back wall (lack of over travel). You should be very happy.

No over travel?

TT's have a solid back wall after the break. Many wouldn't even notice it.

i've got one ordered for a 700 rem. and hoping it lives up to my expectations?
Ed I think you'll like it. Which one did you get I picked up the version that drops to 1 pound for a factory 700 action. Pretty happy with it as a hunting trigger. It's still too heavy for a serious varmint trigger. Tom

Have you used Jewell triggers? They're the only model of the triggers discussed to far where I've definitely noticed a difference in "pull quality."
But am not crazy about them for general big-game triggers.... I have loose catagories of my trigger pulls: Good: Jewell Timney Trigger tech Rem 700 factory from 1960s Win 70 Bad: Military Mauser Mosin Nagant 303 BRit 1917 Sav 99

Is anyone able to confirm the pull weight? Listed at 1.5-4.0 lbs. Depicted trigger housing showing 1.0-3.5 lbs. Thanks for the link, Happy Fourth! SD65

Is anyone able to confirm the pull weight? Listed at 1.5-4.0 lbs. Depicted trigger housing showing 1.0-3.5 lbs. Thanks for the link, Happy Fourth! SD65 I've never dropped mine down below 2lbs and that's plenty light for me.This is from the link above: The adjustment feature utilizes externally accessible set screw for both stages. Due to the exceptionally crisp break the activation energy is less than friction-based triggers. Most shooters report the pull weights feeling significantly lighter than a friction-based trigger of the same measured weight. The triggers components are assembled as a matched set to enable a true zero-creep break, extremely short overtravel and offers outstanding reliability, even in the harshest environments. Frictionless Release Technology™, along with hardened 440C stainless steel internal components ensure corrosion resistance and an extended service life. As Frictionless Release Technology™ does not rely on coating, polishing or lubricating the key engagement surfaces, trigger pulls will be more consistent from shot to shot and after thousands of shots than you ever thought possible. All pull weights and measurements are approximate. ***Pull weights of TriggerTech Triggers are directly impacted by firing pin spring weight. Overweight firing pin springs may cause pulls weights to vary above the advertised range***

SD65 Seems off because TT website shows the Primary being 1.5-4# and Special being 1-3.5#. Maybe since this seems to be an exclusive item it is set up differently. I am good as long as I can hit 2-2.5#.

2 TriggerTech specials here and one primary.
No more Timneys or tuned walkers for me.
And I have no idea about a "spongey safety". Mine engage and disengage with a very positive "click".

I like the wide, flat shoe Timney uses better but can't otherwise tell much difference.

I suspect some shooters are better at adjusting triggers than others, especially those who've dinked with many rifle triggers for a long time. But despite not being able to tell much difference between the pull of TTs and Timneys (or a Walker Remington trigger) totally understand how many find TTs easier to adjust. Though for me that's not enough to spend a lot of time and money replacing triggers that already work the way I want 'em to.

I don’t have any intentions of replacing triggers I’m happy with but I don’t see myself ordering anything other than TT from now on. Provided it’s a option. As of right now it’s not for Howa/Vanguard so I use Timney there.

Kaleb,
Recently purchased a Weatherby Vanguard First Lite, and am very impressed with their so-called "2-stage" trigger. Right from the factory it has a slight and light initial pull--followed by a very crisp and consistent pull of 2 pounds 12 ounces....
