Timney triggers or Sharp Shooter for Savage

tuc22 · January 29, 2001, 12:14 PM

The stock trigger on the Savage 10FP has been a frequent topic here at TFL, yet I'd like to hear from people who've had some experience installing triggers. My question: In terms of quality and ease of installation, which is the better trigger Timney or Sharps Shooter Supply? I want the best 2lb trigger possible.

I can't speak to the Sharp's trigger, but I did install a 1 3/4 pound Timney trigger on my Remington 700. Installation was very easy, and it's a terrific trigger.

I talked to Timney about a year ago wondering when that trigger would be done. Glad to hear that it is. I've never shot with either but I will be picking up the Timney now.

I had my local gunsmith put the Sharp Shooter trigger on my Savage Scout, and I'm quite pleased. It breaks crisply at 2.5# and the safety works fine. It can be adjusted lower, but 2.5 was fine with me.
