The trigger is where accuracy either comes together or falls apart, and the stock unit on most Remington 700s leaves plenty on the table. The Timney Elite Hunter fixes that with a drop-in replacement built to give you a clean, repeatable break every time you press it. This version wears a straight blade, ships set to a 3 lb pull, and is configured for right-hand rifles with a green and nickel-plated look that stands out under the receiver.
Timney machines and hand-fits every component, and the result is a pull without the slack, grit, and inconsistency you get from a worn factory trigger. Pull weight is adjustable from roughly 1.5 to 4 lbs, so you can dial it down for precision bench work or keep it a touch heavier for cold-weather hunts with gloves. The unit also handles over-travel adjustment and includes a bolt stop release along with a trigger-blocking side safety, so you keep the controls you already know.
This is a genuine drop-in for the iconic Model 700 action. Installation comes down to pulling the bolt, separating the action from the stock, tapping out the two factory trigger pins, and setting the Timney in its place. Most folks who are comfortable at the workbench knock it out in a few minutes, though it pays to go slow around the bolt stop and its spring. Timney runs a bit wider than the factory trigger, so a little opening up of the trigger guard slot is sometimes needed for a clean fit.
Timney has been building triggers since 1946, and the Elite Hunter carries that reputation forward. Owners consistently call the upgrade night and day compared to the stock trigger, and it's a favorite for anyone squeezing more out of a hunting or precision 700. If you've been fighting a heavy, creepy factory trigger, this is one of the most noticeable improvements you can make to the rifle.
Yes, it's designed as a direct drop-in replacement for the Model 700 action. You remove the bolt, separate the action from the stock, tap out the two factory trigger pins, and set the Timney in place. Because Timney triggers run slightly wider than the factory unit, you may need to open up the trigger guard slot a touch for a clean fit.
It ships from the factory set at 3 lbs, which is a great all-around weight for hunting and general precision work. The pull is adjustable from roughly 1.5 to 4 lbs, so you can fine-tune it to your preference. The trigger also offers over-travel adjustment for dialing in a cleaner break.
The straight-profile blade gives your finger a consistent contact point and a more vertical press, which many folks feel helps with a cleaner, more predictable break. It's largely a matter of preference and how it feels against your trigger finger. If you already like the feel of a flat or straight trigger on other rifles, this version will suit you well.
It does. The trigger includes a trigger-blocking side safety along with a bolt stop release, so you keep the same controls you're used to on your 700. Just take your time during installation to make sure the bolt release and safety operate smoothly with no binding before heading to the range.
