About 2 - 2 1/2 lbs. Anything less than that seems a little unsafe (at least to me).
I had the opportunity to shoot someone elses rifle with a Jewell trigger set in ounces. Surprised the shit out of me when it went off. |

I replaced my Rem700 and Rem700ML triggers with Timneys and set them for about 2.75lbs each that break very cleaning with very little overtravel. The AR30 and AR50 use the exact same triggers and I set these at 2lbs each.

4.5+ smoooooth as silk, and short as hell. My 700 is at a 4.5, but if you pulled it you would think it was ~1 pound.

20oz. My bench/varmint guns are set up this way. A few of my hunting rifles are slightly more, about 26-28oz. All have been tested for safety.

I prefer my triggers to be more Kate Mossish than Roseannish

2.5 lbs is great but honestly I did have an AD so I think 3.5 is better. I got two hunting rifles at 3.5 lbs and they are great.
3.5 lbs it is. |

I'm happy with about 4 lbs in ALL my guns. I like a distinctly clean break. |
