[QUOTE="Black67, post: 1081780, member: 41359"] For your Model 70, do you know which trigger you have in it? Is the rifle a New Haven based or SC based rifle? This will tell you which trigger is currently in the rifle if its still stock. I have two NH and one SC based rifles, and two of the triggers have been worked on. My one NH rifle is at 2.5 lbs, and is a smooth and silky. I did some work on my SC trigger, and it is about 2 lbs 11 oz now. It is also smooth and silky now. Before it was heavy and had some creep to it. Now, my second NH rifle still has the stock trigger as from the factory. It currently is around 5 lbs. In the near future I plan on working on it. The aftermarket triggers are good, Timney and Jewell are really nice. The factory triggers can be made just as nice by someone that has worked on them. A trigger job by a good gunsmith is about half of what an aftermarket trigger usually is. This is just some food for thought. [/QUOTE]
