    So I staked my ejector hoping to weed out the failures to eject brass from my B14R. Now onto the trigger

    Factory trigger will go to just under 3lbs. Has the single adjustment screw on the bottom. (Pic below) It has a creep before the trigger that makes it feel like absolute crap no matter where the screw is set

    So what’s the best replacement? I love my AI rifle two stages and SSA-E so was thinking going two stage here as well

    So far this rifle has me wishing I’d just gone T1X in a krg bravo. My current T1X adjusts to 15 oz from the factory trigger and the bolt throw is much nicer

    Also are these trigger pins supposed to be this far out on the one side?

    I edited original title-

    What are the thoughts between timney HIT and trigger tech options? Gun will be used for target and pigeon shooting at farms. Something two stage would be good but a reliable 1-2 lbs trigger would be decent to

    They are adjustable......just depends on your sweet spot. I migrated from 2 stage to single stage. My step son loves his 2 stage. Personmal preference but you'll get a small allen to adjust both stages.

    I prefer 2 stage in both AR and my bolt guns currently. So it just makes sense here I suppose. However those are Geissele in the AR and several Accuracy International triggers. My single stages are factory Tikka, savage accutrigger and a jewel in my P1000 which is the only 700 based action I have left besides this new B14R
     
    TT failed me, twice (2 seperate triggers, 2 different guns). Timney 2 stage, never had a single issue.

    Did a customer's today, he has an older TT 2 stage (dark blue / grey, not the green), works great and said has been perfect since day one.

    *Shrug*.

    I will point out that the Bergara rimfire bolt shroud and cocking piece are not an overall great design, and benefit from some tweaks.
     
    I just went with a $150 Shilen Competition Trigger for mine. I have it set at a crisp 6 oz pull. Of course it is a single stage. No safety either as my Bergara is shot either prone or from a bench. It will adjust down to 3 oz..
     
    I just put a jewell trigger and it’s insane. Simple design with a swap of trigger spirings but mine safely breaks at 10oz, not even adjusted. Don’t hear much about them oddly so putting it out there anyways
