Is there anyone out there that knows if you can buy a double or single set trigger for a 700 Rem ?? If so where??

The answer to most questions like this is Brownells.

Dear Sir:
On a muzzle-loadrr it's O.K.
However, think about this - The front trigger releases the rear trigger to strike the let-off bar and releases the striker on a bolt gun. This takes far more time that a Timney feather-weight trigger than simply releases the sear from the stiker!
Forget the "set-trigger" and get an ultralite trigger from Brownells!
This is just my opinion: Most "light" triggers are used to prevent flinching!
(bench-rest might be an exception)
Just my opinion.

Thanks Harry, I'll look into the lite Timney trigger. I now have Timney triggers on most of my guns. The reason I was looking for a set trigger was for target shooting. I like a very light trigger pull. Most of my hunting rifles are 2 to 2 1/2 lbs..

Thanks,
John

Dear Sir:
I understand on the bench rest deal!
My gradson, may God watch over him, has a Timney ultra-lite trigger that, so help me, a strong breath will set it off - for your Bench-Rest Shooting it would be fabulous - but - my grandson has it on a Remington Sendero in 338 RUM! God help him!
