Description
The Timney Remington 700 Two-Stage Straight Trigger takes one of the best bolt actions ever built and gives it the trigger it always deserved. Where the factory Walker trigger tends to feel heavy and inconsistent, this two-stage design gives you a defined first stage of take-up followed by a crisp, predictable wall and break. That kind of feel is what lets you settle in, prep the shot, and squeeze without second-guessing yourself, which is exactly why so many precision and hunting builds run a Timney.
It ships factory calibrated with an 8-ounce first stage, and the second stage is fully adjustable so you can dial it to your preference. On top of pull weight, you can tune sear engagement and over-travel to get the exact feel you're after. The straight trigger shoe gives your finger a consistent contact point and a slightly different geometry than a curved shoe, which a lot of folks prefer for repeatable, straight-back pressure. It also carries Timney's own trigger-blocking safety, so the bolt stays locked up and the trigger won't move while you're on safe.
Why the 532-ST Earns a Spot in Your Rifle
Timney has been building Remington replacement triggers longer than most of us have been shooting, and their 700 units have a reputation for tighter groups and a safer, more consistent break than the factory unit. This straight-shoe version fits the Remington 700 short and long action, ADL and BDL, along with the 40X.
Dropping the Two-Stage Straight Trigger In
Installation is genuinely a home-shop job. Pull the barreled action, tap out a couple of trigger pins, swap in the Timney, and reinstall. No drilling or tapping required. One heads-up from the field: Timney units run a touch wider than the factory trigger, so you may need to open up the trigger-guard slot slightly, and this one does not fit the Magpul Hunter stock. Watch that bolt-release spring when you pull the pin so it doesn't launch across the bench.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Timney trigger fit my Remington 700?
Yes, the 532-ST is a true drop-in for the Remington 700 in both short and long action, ADL and BDL configurations, plus the 40X. It replaces the factory trigger group with no drilling or tapping. Keep in mind it will not fit the Magpul Hunter stock, so check your setup before ordering.
How hard is it to install the two-stage straight trigger?
It's a straightforward home-shop job that most folks knock out in well under an hour. You pull the barreled action, tap out the trigger pins, drop in the Timney, and put it back together. Since Timney units run slightly wider than the factory trigger, you may need to lightly open the trigger-guard slot, and watch that the bolt-release spring doesn't pop out when you remove the pin.
Is the trigger adjustable, and what does it come set at?
It arrives factory calibrated with a light 8-ounce first stage, ready to shoot out of the box. The second stage is fully adjustable, and you can also tune sear engagement and over-travel to fine-tune the break to your taste. Stick to Timney's recommended minimum pull settings when you dial it in.
What's the difference between the straight shoe and a curved one?
The straight trigger shoe gives your finger a flat, consistent contact point and pulls the break straight back rather than following a curve. A lot of precision-minded shooters prefer it for repeatable pressure and a slightly more neutral finger position. Function is otherwise identical to the curved 532 version.
