Stevens 200 trigger fix

[stang]

Has anybody got any way to improve the Stevens 200 trigger, if not is there a good repacement at a reasonable cost?

Stuck a Rifle Basix in mine, factory one couldn't be adjusted to what I liked. They shipped right to the door, no hassles. Bit trickier than say a Timney to install, but once it was set it worked great. I'd go Timney next time, but the RB is good.

A Rifle Basix will give you a nice crisp trigger, but you can also try adjusting the factory one yourself first.

Cheapest is to adjust as above, and you can make a lighter spring from wire available at model airplane shops. I did that for one pre-accutrigger savage, and I was happy with the results. But for another rifle that I wanted even better, I used a Sharp Shooter Supply trigger, which can produce superior results, easier.

The Stevens 200 trigger is not the same as pictured above. It lacks the sear adjustment screw( No.1) which is important in making the trigger break cleanly. It's easy to replace the factory trigger with a Rifle Basix trigger.

I believe you can swap the Stevens trigger for a Savage 3 screw trigger that will allow sear adjustments. Sometimes these are available from someone who went with an aftermarket trigger.

I'd also endorse the Sharp Shooter supply trigger, I put one on my .243 Stevens and it is a sweet trigger.

Easy to adjust, crisp and clean break ....... $97 buck US though ....
