Non scientifically I would agree. I think my Jewell to TT is what TT is to Timney.I've got Trigger Tech, Jewell, and Timney. I tried a weight experiment with all 3 companies! Before you chew my a_s out most of my triggers are between 2 pounds and 1pound, yes on hunting rifles.
I tested Jewell on a Stiller Predator action never adjusted it broke at 15.1-15.5 ounces over 5 trigger pulls and functioned perfect with no sear misses.
Trigger Tech Special on Tuebor Ti Legion action broke 1.3-1.0 pounds over 5 pulls With 100 percent reliability.
Trigger Techs on standard Remington 700 actions 3 different rifles all short actions the extreme spread was an average of 5 ounces all in the 1.5 pound range. 100 percent reliable.
Timney triggers on 2 Remington standard actions. Ranged from 1.0-1.9 and only 50 percent reliability. Sear misses at least 50% of the time, a couple dry fires on closed bolts while resetting scale. Failed drop test every time. I drop firearm from half way to my knee onto floor on its butt pad. Timneys will be increased.
This is not a scientific test by any means but it should give you an idea! I personally absolutely love the Trigger Techs on all firearms but the Jewel did outperform them but at twice the cost.
My scale used was a Wheeler Engineering digital scale.
I love both those top 2 but I've had problems with Timney's.
