This is a commercial husqvarna m46, isnt it? Chambered 9.3x57. It has a two stage trigger.
Do most m46 actually have a single stage? I'm no expert on husqvarnas, I just want to know.
The ones built on their commercial M96 actions, and the commercial 98's (both with the solid sidewalls) have single stage triggers, I should have been more specific.
Milsurp sporter versions came with standard 2 stage triggers.

Ruger m77 Hawkeye tactical police has a nice 2 stage trigger. Also all my Husqvarna rifles are 2 stage trigger.

CZ 557. A very nice 2 stage trigger as a matter of fact, fully adjustable.
Might not be original to it, I usually swap in a military 2 stage in the ones I get as the single stage conversion is not great... massive overtravel and usually quite heavy pull.. All they do is grind the hump off the military trigger to make it single stage, not ideal.
On the ones I really like I'll fit a Daytona as they require much less wood to be hogged out then a Timney.
Yes it does.
There are two different sorts of two-stage triggers. The first is the standard military-type trigger such as is found on Mauser 98's, Springfields, enfields, etc. This is a rugged, simple, reliable, trigger which is designed to function under adverse conditions. Sear engagement is generous and it is the first stage which moves the sear through most of the engagement. A Mauser or Springfield can be easily worked over to break at 3 pounds total with the first stage accounting for about a pound of this. The second type of two stage trigger is typified by the Anschutz triggers. Intended as match or varmint rifle triggers, they are far from simple and are fully adjustable. I like two stage triggers of both types as far as function is concerned. I consider the simple military trigger to be the best mechanism there is for rough field use. It is difficult to envision a situation in which a trigger like this would fail. I think two-stage match triggers, with a final stage of less than a pound over the first stage, to be excellent for position shooting but I don't think they are ideal for a serious hunting rifle.
