Single stage or 2 stage?
Do you have a preference? If so - what and why?
Maybe it's just what I read but don't often see it discussed in gun media.

Prefer one stage but have no problems with a two stage trigger.

I like a single stage in hunting rifles and most competition rifles, and two stage triggers in self defense rifles. A two stage trigger give you a little leeway under stress.

I like either in a bolt gun and a 2-stage on autos, mainly because I have double-fired light single-stage triggers before.
Now with even more aplomb

I have used a bunch of different triggers various rifles over the decades, and described my preferences (which have changed considerably) in my most recent article in Rifle magazine, "Rifle Triggers in the 21st Century." Ain't going to simplify/summarize 2000+ words here, but the essay might interest some readers.

Been my luck lately, I'll ask a question and someone just did the answer. Asked about tuners here, 2 hours later Brian Litz posts to Facebook about it. Ask about triggers and you just did an article lol.
