Description
The TriggerTech Special is a two-stage drop-in trigger built for Remington 700 actions and the wide world of 700 clones. What sets it apart is TriggerTech's Frictionless Release Technology, which does away with the sliding friction found in traditional triggers. Instead of relying on polished, coated, or lubed engagement surfaces, the release rolls on a free-floating element, so your break stays crisp and predictable even after thousands of rounds. That flat trigger shoe gives you a defined first stage that lets you take up slack and settle into the wall, then a genuinely zero-creep second stage that breaks clean when you're ready.
Dialing In the Rem 700 Special Two-Stage Trigger
Both stages are adjustable through externally accessible set screws, so you can fine-tune the feel without pulling the trigger group apart. First stage runs roughly 8 to 24 ounces and the second stage covers about 8 to 32 ounces, putting the total pull in the 1 to 3.5 pound range. The clever part is CLKR Technology, which uses a detent and set screw combo that adjusts in tactile clicks. You feel every increment as you turn it, so you always know exactly how much you've changed and can get both stages set right where you want them.
Four Points of Safety Built Into the Trigger
TriggerTech went to the trouble of building the first Rem 700 trigger with four points of safety. A ticker blocker keeps the ticker from moving while on safe, a sear blocker prevents the sear from dropping, and a first-stage lockout freezes the first stage entirely when the safety is engaged, giving you instant confirmation. Even in fire mode, the first-stage safety blocks the ticker until the first stage is actuated.
Built to Last
The housing is 7075 aircraft-grade anodized aluminum with hardened 440C stainless steel key components, finished in a matte gray body with black PVD-coated parts. Overtravel comes in under .010 inches, reset is short but tactile, and the whole unit is backed by a lifetime warranty. This is a right-hand configuration that installs as a self-contained module, making it a straightforward upgrade for anyone building or refreshing a 700-pattern rifle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Rem 700 Special two-stage trigger fit my rifle?
It's built for the Remington 700 action and the many 700-pattern clones on the market. Because it drops in as a self-contained module, installation is straightforward for most builds as long as you have the correct trigger hanger and pin setup for your action. This is a right-hand configuration only.
How do I adjust the pull weight on this TriggerTech Special trigger?
Both stages adjust through externally accessible set screws, so you don't have to disassemble the group. TriggerTech's CLKR Technology moves in tactile clicks, letting you feel each one-ounce increment as you turn it. First stage covers roughly 8 to 24 ounces and second stage runs about 8 to 32 ounces, for a total range of 1 to 3.5 pounds.
What makes the two-stage feel different from a single-stage trigger?
The two-stage design gives you a defined first stage to take up slack and find the wall before the shot breaks, which many precision and field shooters prefer for the extra confirmation. The second stage then breaks with zero creep thanks to the Frictionless Release Technology. If you like some deliberate movement before the break, this is the layout for you.
Why does the pull feel lighter than the number on the gauge?
Because the release relies on a rolling element rather than sliding friction, the activation energy is lower than a friction-based trigger of the same measured weight. Many report the pull feeling noticeably lighter than the scale shows. Keep in mind that firing pin spring weight can influence the actual measured pull, and an overweight spring may push it above the advertised range.
