Triggertech vs Jewel?
- Thread starter TrxR
- Start date
Check the equipment lists and see what the top 20 are using. Jewell and Bix N Andy are in there. Don't recall ever seeing a Triggertech on a true benchrest rifle. I'm not sure but how low can you adjust a Triggertech? A Jewell or Bix N Andy can get down to 1.5 ounces.
I have 2 Trigger Techs, a 1st gen and the new diamond. I bought the 1st one to replace my Timmeny and it was a huge upgrade. The second one i bought after shooting my friends two jewel triggers on separate rifles. The trigger teck diamond is better in my opinion but the jewel is an amazing trigger.
They both feel different but the jewel has the slightest bit of creep before the break and the trigger tech feels heavier even at the same pull weight. If you have the ability to try them out 1st i recommend you do but in the end they are both great and you cant go wrong.
Cadex makes a great trigger also and the timmeny calvin elite is better than my old timmeny.
All these rifles were benchrest-ish rifles but not specifically made as one.
Atrs 50bmg jewel
Surgeon 338 lapua jewel
Remington 700 timmeny, triggertech
Defiance 338 lapua triggertech diamond
Rem 700 cadex
Rem 700 calvin elite
Hope this helps

I run a diamond in one of my open guns and a jewel BR in the other.
The diamond is a very heavy 4 ounce feel.
The next time I take my gun apart I will be putting the Jewell back in.
I wanted to try the diamond and see if I liked it.
Personally I don’t like it much.

Jewel over Triggertech...i have both
Flavio over Jewel
B&N vs Flavio. Draw... i own the B&N and it is a fantastic trigger. Depending on your discipline some prefer Flavio
Flavio also appears to go by the name of Sidne SerioB
but Flavio seems to be the more common name there was a parting of the ways between the two parties.
Borden Actions are trigger specific (but not brand) and are timed for that individual trigger; If you ask he will time for all three Jewel, Flavio and B&N you will have to supply him with the trigger for this service.

Jim told me the jewel was the best route for my action. He said he could time it for others but being in Canada it isnt practical .
Understood
A quality smith in Canada will be able to time any trigger to your action.
