Description
Anyone who has fought a gritty factory trigger knows how much it can rob you at the target. The TriggerTech Rem 700 Primary swaps all of that out for a genuine zero-creep break, and it does the job as a straight drop-in on any right-handed Remington 700 and the huge range of clone actions built on that footprint. No sending your rifle off to a gunsmith, no fussing with polishing or shims. It goes in, it works, and the difference shows up on your very next group.
What Sets the Primary Flat Apart
The heart of this trigger is TriggerTech's Frictionless Release Technology, which uses a free-floating roller between the sear and the trigger instead of two surfaces sliding against each other. Because there's no drag, the break feels glassy and predictable, and a lot of folks report the pull feeling about a half pound lighter than the number on the scale would suggest. Inside, you're looking at hardened 440C stainless steel components that shrug off moisture and keep the pull consistent shot after shot, season after season.
Dialing In Your R700 Trigger
Pull weight adjusts from 1.5 to 4.0 pounds in one-ounce increments using CLKR Technology, and the set screw is externally accessible so you can tune it without pulling the barreled action out of the stock. The flat lever gives you a repeatable finger position with a little shelf at the bottom to index against, which helps you break the shot the same way every time. Overtravel is extremely short, so the trigger stops almost the instant the sear releases.
This version comes with the top safety and bolt release, so you keep the familiar Remington controls you already know. It's a smart pick whether you're building out a precision rig, tuning a hunting rifle, or just tired of a mushy stock trigger holding back an otherwise accurate gun. Backed by a lifetime warranty, it's the kind of upgrade you install once and forget about.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the TriggerTech Rem 700 Primary fit my rifle?
It's designed to drop into any right-handed Remington 700 model rifle, and it also fits the many clone actions built on the 700 footprint like Bergara and similar builds. Installation is a simple swap with no gunsmithing needed. If your action follows the standard Remington 700 pattern, you're good to go.
How light can I set the trigger pull?
The Primary adjusts from 1.5 to 4.0 pounds in roughly one-ounce increments using the external CLKR set screw. Keep in mind that firing pin spring weight can affect the actual pull, so an overweight spring may push the number slightly higher than the range suggests. Most people find the crisp break feels even lighter than the measured weight.
Do I need tools or a gunsmith to adjust the pull weight?
No gunsmith required. The set screw is externally accessible, so you can tune the pull weight without pulling the barreled action out of the stock. It's a quick adjustment you can make at the bench or even at the range.
What makes the flat lever different from a curved trigger?
The flat, straight lever gives you a consistent, repeatable finger position with a small shelf at the bottom to index against. That helps you place your finger the same way and break the shot cleaner every time. Many precision and target-focused folks prefer the flat face for that reason, though it comes down to personal feel.
