Pull Gauge
« on: January 27, 2007, 09:47:21 AM »
I would like advice on which trigger pull gauge would be best for occasional use?

Thanks,
Don

Lymann works for me.  Digital reading and averages.  About $50 at Cabella's.

I use a Premium RCBS guage. I like the shape and it records the maximum pull reached. Tried a digital (really early one) and it bounced at the end as the trigger tripped, especially on harder pulls, and gave false readings. I would guess that's been fixed thought as the digitals sure seem to be the soming thing.. Still is hate everything that uses batteries..

I have 2 RCBS models , the cheap one and the good one. The cheap one, you have to watch the gauge as it does not hold the reading. The good one does and I am very happy with it.

I use the RCBS as well. I picked mine up when Midway had them on sale. I wanted a digital one until I tried one.
