As a complete newb with his first dedicated hunting rifle, I have no idea what's considered a "safe" trigger weight for field use. I'm used to 2.5-4# on my competition and precision rifles, but I don't know if that's considered "safe" or not. I understand the 4 rules and use the safety and all that, I was just wondering what you all seem to have your rifles set at.
The 22" .308 700 SPS I picked up at Dick's last night has about an 8# trigger (along with a horrid chinese scope), which just seems so heavy to me. |
