Remington X-mark Pro trigger
« on: April 09, 2007, 06:44:22 AM »
 Has anyone actually adjusted one of the new X-mark Pro trigger for weight of pull? I know that there is now only one screw that can be adjusted on them. I had the opportunity to pull one of the new triggers and it felt good, but it was not at what I would call varmint weight. How easy would it  be to take down to a 1-1 1/2 pound pull weight and could it be done with just the screw on the trigger?

I haven't seen one as yet but was under the impression they were fully adjustable, just left out the extra piece that got the old trigger into hot water. As to pull weight I don't know that for certain either but almost no factory trigger is safe to adjust to 1-1 1/2 pouinds pull. They are usually just not precisely built enough to be safe at those weights.. And yeah I know so-and-so does them all the time but are they safe.. I've seen some of the output from a couple of the local gun genies.. One would drop the striker if the bolt were operated a bit forcefully..both would drop the striker if bounced on the floor.. This at normal temps. Drop the tempurature to freezing and you've an accident waiting to happen.. They are also supposed to be made with powdered metal techknoledgy.. OK I suppose but not going to take to stoning and polishing well, at least the Ruger trigger parts won't.

 Thanks Gunnut- Remingtons website states that the trigger is fully adjustable for weight of pull. I read else where that there is only one screw on them to adjust now instead of the three. I usually adjust my own down to 2 1/2 - 3lbs for a hunting rifle. I am buying a varmint specific rifle this spring and would like to try a lighter trigger and see if it feels good and makes a difference on the long shots.
