in my .416 barrett l AR upper? I know this is the 50 forum but i thought you guys would be better to ask. Is the Rock River Arms 2 stage good. I have a timney drop in trigger in one of my other 5.56 ARs and def dont want a trigger that light in my .416. Thanks |

I've got a Jard AR trigger in the lower that's dedicated to my ALS 50 BMG upper. It's a sweet little trigger with a heavier hammer spring to put more firing pin energy into the 50 BMG primers. Your 416 will also be using 50 BMG primers. You might look into a Jard trigger. www.50bmg.net sells the Jards with a heavier hammer spring setup specifically for use with a 50. Actually, I really like a light trigger in a 50. I'm running about 2-3 pounds on my State Arms. A 50 or 416 can be safe with a light trigger because you don't load it til you are ready to shoot anyway. Not like you're toting the gun around in the woods ready to snap shoot a deer that jumps out of its bed. I'd suggest no heavier than 4 lb trigger for most applications with a 50 BMG or a 416 Barrett. -David Edgewood, NM |

the rock river is a good trigger i think its at 8lbs i have one set up for my 50 cal upper the reason i went with the rock river trigger is so i can use a heavey hammer spring for the bmg primers it was in my 223 and it is great compared to a stock combat trigger i shift that one over and put a timney in the 223 lower the timney is also very nice its a single stage at 3.5 lbs i think |

I guess it all depends upon what you want your rifle to do. There are more match-grade two stage triggers out there than single stage. I personally believe anything heavier than 4 pounds inhibits long range accuracy because you are wiggling the gun too much squeezing the trigger. If you are interested in long-range accuracy, go with a lighter trigger, be it single stage or two-stage. If you are not interested in long range accuracy, why buy a 416 Barrett or 50 BMG? Not a very efficient rifle to pack around the woods and snap shoot Deer, Elk, or Grizzlies with... But that's just me. -David Edgewood, NM |
it all depends on how you like your trigger to feel has nothing to do with being a semi, single shot bolt or automatic its best described when you have 1 of each side by side the 2 stag is hard and then gets softer (more travel also) the single stage is very quick to let go |
