I know I asked this question quite some time ago. But looking for the best drop in trigger for a Remington 700 long action. Safety and reliability first and foremost but I appreciate a smooth fairly light trigger 2-3 pounds . I had meant to take care of this project quite some time ago but now I am addressing it

I’ve used several Timneys and been very pleased. If I find another rifle that needs a trigger, I may try something else to see if they’re any better.

I have been using TriggerTechs for 700's myself. No complaints.

+1 on Trigger Tech. I've had them on both of my 700s (including a long action) for several years now and no complaints either.

I have timneys and triggertech. The triggertech "feels" a little more quality to me but I like the wide trigger shoe on the timneys a little better. Between the two I would probably just get whatever I found a better deal on at the time.

Have both TT and a Timney.

For what you describe; a TriggerTech Primary is the way I'd lean.

Trigger Tech Special. Why? Because you will love it so much, you will want it lighter later on. You can have a 1-3# with the Special!! ha I started with TT Primary myself. Now all I use are Specials.

Definitely TriggerTech.


If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

2-3 lb target, timney or TT either one. You want a wide or narrow trigger shoe?

I’m very happy with the Triggertech that I put in earlier this year.

I have all Timney triggers and just installed two more yesterday. I prefer a thin shoe and Timney has the 510THIN (or 512THIN if you want a nickel). They are easy to adjust and have not found a reason to try anything else.

I have a couple Timneys and they are great. What is so special with the trigger techs?
