AR accuracy

[dusticles]

If he wants to shoot SR, he needs a trigger pull 4.5+ lbs. There are like two or three options from GA, all in the 300$ range.

Yes, the Hi-speed NM trigger I have is the service rifle model. Pull weight on 1st stage can be adjusted from 3-5 lbs and 2nd from 0.5 to 1.5 lbs. The sear and over travel can also be adjusted for a nice break.

I paid around $450 at ATRS for the NM trigger four years ago, the SSA-E go for about $350 today

IMO, the next best option would be a Knights take off. They come up on the EE once in a while. There's only slightly more creep than my NM and overall pull weight is just under 5 lbs, works awesome in my 223

Worth repeating. If you are going to compete in SR, there are a lot of triggers that won't reach this minimum threshold.
I use a Rock River 2 stage. Meets the limit, but a great improvement over a stock trigger.

I've heard of the RR before. How much does it run? I'm probably just running as is for now but can keep my eyes open for a deal. Most likely only going to make the SR Clinic for this year due to work and family.

Other options for a cleaner/smoother trigger would also include ALG (Arms East carries 'em) and BCM PNT (Brownells). Both are under $100.

Alg is Geissele's wife's company. Budget single stage triggers, pretty good quality tho.

 

[TriggerTech]

I guess the SSA or G2S if you went for a Geissele with a 2.5lb first and 2lb second stage.

I just picked up a TriggerTech from CanAm for $229 with free shipping. It's a single stage though but adjustable from 2-5lbs. Lower it for your precision shooting and crank it backup for your SR?

Hi,

Great to hear that you have a TT-AR-15 on the way. Let us know how you like it.

The TT-AR-15 is not technically a single-stage. We call is a 1911 Single Action. But, this kind of action does have take-up. It is shorter/smoother than two-stage options on the market. But, you could also call it a two-stage trigger as there is take-up and a very distinct wall, i.e. two distinct actions from take-up to wall to break.

The TT-AR-15 is built that way to be the best possible option for benchrest, 3-Gun and those who just want to shoot fast.

1) Bench-rest: It is adjustable down to ~2 lbs. There is zero creep once you hit the wall
2) 3-Gun: The take-up allows for movement from the soft-ready position to feel in complete control over the trigger once ready. Again, adjustability allows you to crank it up to 3-5 lbs if needed
3) Fast shooting: Our sub .030" reset, which is also very smooth, allows for incredibly fast splits. You don't need to go all the way to the first stage or take-up, you can feel the reset and keep shooting from the second stage or wall.

Cheers,

TT

Tried a search but I'm not sure how to word it to get results. I'm new to ARs and I'm trying to develop a load with Sierra 69gr MK for 300-600 yard shooting. I'm getting a number of 5 shot groups that have 2 shots touching then 3 more shots touching or very tight but about 3/4" vertical spread between the clusters. Overall most groups are 1 1/2" - 2" at 100yds. I'm using Varget and Re15 for powder and this seems to be happening with both. I've tried different targets to make sure I'm getting consistent holds. I've tried both a sandbag and front rest and I make sure I'm not putting pressure on the hand guard. With my bolt gun I can consistently shoot sub MOA groups so I don't think it is shooter error lol. Is this a typical problem with ARs? Is there a fix?

Most of the issues lie in the quality of barrel used and chamber specs. The results you are getting are pretty typical in the industry.

Yes, you can get very accurate AR's but you are going to need to start with the barrel... then tweak the gas system to tame the BCG. A lighter trigger will always help but SR requirements will dictate a heavier pull.

My efforts toward an accurate SR...

PM or email if you want to pursue parts... I also can offer TT AR and Rem triggers.... nice gear.
