I found these links a couple years ago but still got the adjustment done by a gunsmith, down to 2#1oz.

This method is for the older trigger. Chambered221, please be warned that it may or may not give you a safe or predictable let-off. YMMV.

twofifty, thanks for the info

well aware of the safty issue,

The links give info on doing safty checks should anyone make any changes on their trigger.

Hey there chambered221,
Go to (www.snipercountry.com), and they will have a very easy to understand step by step " how to" for your trigger adjustment. I assume its a 700 your wanting to know about and they have that. be sure to have as much information as to the model SPS,BDL or what ever it is as Reminton did use different triggers depending on the purpose of each 700 set up. An example would be my 710, it was built with two different triggers and I got the 3 stage jewel because of the caliber (7 mm Rem. mag. ) and the year it was manufactured in, so be sure to enter that information too just in case it will make a difference.
Keep on shooting!
Michael

gobbuster, thanks to you also.

snipercountry was a site I found a while back and forgot to mark. I've been trying to find it ever since, so a double thanks to ya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any time chambered221. Always happy to help a fellow shooter find the mark. Hey, if you think about it, let me know which trigger your Remington has. And yes, be sure that the let off is predictable and that the gun won't go off when closing the action. If it does then back off your adjustment in 1/4 turn increments until you can rely on it being safe and predictable.
Thanks,
Gobbuster
