I have used Timney, Jewel, Shilen, RifleBasix and TriggerTech. My vote goes towards TriggerTech.

I have not tried the Trigger Tech but a good friend has and was unimpressed. Since I consider him to be as knowledgeable as myself when it comes to triggers, I'll take his word for it. I like the Shilen triggers because they are a simple, straightforward trigger. I like the Timney just fine. I thought the Canjar was the best trigger made for the Remington. I think a lot of the problems with triggers on Remingtons are actually problems with bolt timing. I have an X-mark pro trigger on one of my prone rifles (a Remington clone) and it is just fine at 2 pounds.
Having said all this, any of the triggers previously mentioned will work fine if the action lets them work and they are properly adjusted. GD

I'm obviously the only one who had this problem, but on my one triggertech, getting the bolt release to work was a nightmare. Probably this is uncommon or more people would talk about it. I have at least a dozen timneys on 700s, 7's, and a 600, and don't really see another reason to buy another triggertech. I can't tell the difference shooting them. They're both good.

I have only tried the competition model and it is amazing, but they are over priced for the most part in regular models.

Timney makes some very nice triggers (truly a Godsend for the RAR), but NEVER my choice for a Remington

Triggertechs are good triggers. I have a Geissele Super 700 on my 7RM and it’s my favorite trigger.

I have Jard's on mine, work fine and never a problem.


I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.

You can’t go wrong at that price - best trigger for the money in my book.

I like the Trigger Tech Special. I can set it on 1# and finesse my shots in early season. In colder weather, when my old hands get stiffer, I can crank it up to 3# and keep going! Another thing, The TT is designed to work even if it gets all gummed up with junk. Ex.- I had a finely set up Shilen that was a dream "until" a tiny, tiny piece of sage leaf got in it and froze it up! So there are all kinds of good reasons to at least try one? have a ball man!

The way you're using it is where the TT really shines - adjust the trigger whilst still in the stock.

Was thinking about a simple TriggerTech primary, Or is it worth the extra$ for the special?
Opticsplanet has one listed for $119, but read negative reviews about there business practice of selling out of stock items

I’ve only used a few, tuned 700 triggers, Shilen, Timney, and Trigger Tech Diamonds. Out of those, the Trigger Tech Diamond wins. Not even a contest really. There may be better triggers out there, but my Diamonds have been so good I don’t really have any interest in looking for something better, if it even does exist.
