I've had a Timney trigger in my 6.5CM rifle (Stiller SPECTRE action, AICS) and I have not been able to get down to the 1.5# they claim. I'm stuck more like 2.0# to 2.25#, and both gunsmiths who have looked at it agree that going any lower will compromise safety/reliability. So... time to find a new trigger.
I'm strongly considering a CG Jackson. I'd get the flat trigger shoe because even though I hate the gawdy gold trigger, I do like the feel of a flat trigger from my time with this Timney. My questions are:
* There is some inletting on the AICS for the Timney already, but from what I can tell, the clearancing needed for the CG Jackson is in a different area, correct? So I should still count on some grinder/sandpaper time, right? Is the clearance issues with the AICS unique to the older Model #21? Do you still need to clearance with the Model #22?
* Since my rifle has a STILLER SPECTRE action, it already has a side bolt release, so I don't need the underside bolt release, but I do need the safety (since this will primarily a tactical match gun). Can I order the unit with only the safety and not the bolt release? Can you remove the bottom release somehow? Is it going to be a clearance issue?
* I know you can swap out the trigger shoe for any Anschutz type shoe. Can anyone put up a link where you can purchase them in the US?
This link for INTERSHOOT seems to have a lot of very nice looking shoes, but it's located in the UK, and I'm imagine there is a US dealer I'm missing for this stuff.
Thanks in advance for any help!!
