Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats Rem 700 Trigger Work

I'm looking for a contact who would be one of the better smiths or guys that do pure trigger magic to send a few older stainless rem 700 triggers to. I know I could try myself but would rather have it professionally done.

Any recommendations on who?

I have heard many people speak highly of Neil Jones.

I would do both. I'd try to adjust it yourself, and if you can't satisfy yourself, load em' up and send them to a smith. But it's really easy to get a Remmy trigger to break pretty darn clean. Just know that they all have a little personality, and that some will tune really easy and others will baffle you. Make sure you start with a good screwdriver that fits the screws, and a dental pick or something similar to be certain that all the sealant that Remmy puts on the screws is removed before you address the screws with your screwdriver.

Gunsmith about 2 blocks from my house does a fantastic job. Done several for me. He's a competition shooter, so he knows what a good trigger is. Usually 5-10 days time frame.
2-2.5lbs that breaks like a glass rod� $40ea. I can give you his info if your interested.

+1 on Neil Jones. I have 6 Rem 700s with his reworked triggers. . Save enuf to buy a 7th!
