New Remington 700 Trigger: Timney Hit Trigger
Timney Triggers just released its newest product for Remington 700 rifles and clones. The new Hit trigger is designed specifically for long-range shooting and competition M700 platforms.
The new Hit is upgraded from the standard Timney model with improved geometry. It features a new Sear Engagement Adjustment Lock design (SEAL’d) that they claim is user-friendly. The trigger is adjustable for pull weight and overtravel and can be set with a pull weight as low as 8 ounces up to 2 pounds.
The trigger’s sear and trigger shoe are precision-machined, heat-treated to 56 Rockwell with a black oxide trigger coating and an NP-3 plated sear for maximum lubricity and a lifetime of reliable performance. The Hit is backed by the legendary Timney No Hassle, Lifetime Warranty.
“The Model 700 was introduced in 1962 and Timney’s customers requested an aftermarket trigger for the 700 shortly thereafter,” said Calvin Motley, Director of Product Development for Timney. “John Vehr and I took a look at the Timney design in 2004 when I began working with him and made improvements based on what we had available at the time – as far as metals and machines. And we have been constantly improving and expanding our 700 lineups since that day. In fact, that is exactly what we did again with the HIT trigger. I took my 14 years of knowledge and engineering on our 700 replacement triggers and came up with what I think is the absolute best long-range, shooting competition trigger we’ve built for the M700 actions.”
