Nissan 370Z Forum  

Anyone here into firearms?

Been messing around with the new rifle. The Timney trigger, hand grip, and magazine release extension came in today. So I installed that stuff. The trigger is a 2 stage.

The 1st stage is set at 8oz, the 2nd stage breaks at 1lb. When you squeeze the trigger, it's like breaking a glass rod. Nice and crisp.

Waiting on the scope rings, reloading dies, and the solvent trap can.

I’ve been considering a Timney for a while. Just can’t decide if I like a two stage or not.

I have a single stage Timney in my AR. Love it.

I love the trigger in my 308 but I have the one that has the safety recall. I figure it’s better for me to buy a new trigger rather than send it back to Remington.

I scored 2 lbs of Hodgson H1000 powder today. Local gun shop just powder in yesterday. Reloading 100 rounds of 338 LM takes about 1.25 lbs of powder.

I prefer single stage triggers but have nothing against 2 stage triggers.
Got a Wilson Combat TTU 4lb single stage in one of my ARs. I like it a lot.
Also have Geissele Super Sabras with the Lightning Bow trigger in my Tavors. Gives my Tavors a pretty solid 2 stage feel even though they are bullpups.

At least it isn’t the trigger Sig has in the Cross.

Dang those are some thirsty rounds.
At least you were able to find some powder.

Roughly 90 gr of powder for a Hornady 285 match bullet.

If you can reload my hunting rounds I’d be real cool with that.
