I can't trust, and I never trust any of them completely.There is to much at risk ,even if you hunt alone.I know other people use and like lighter triggers ,they just arent for me .I have both Savage and Remington and both run 2 1/2 to 3 #, safely so far.


I agree with you completely. A problem is that the vibration of firing many hundreds of rounds (or more) may eventually loosen the adjustment, resulting in a lighter pull, then in a few rounds, an unsafe trigger. No amount of vigorous bolt closing immediately after adjustment will detect that this may still happen at some point.
