Gunsmithing Mod 70 Trigger Replacement

[ashland]

I'm replacing the factory trigger on my Mod 70 with a Jewell. Can anyone give me some instructions on this or direct me to a thread or website?

Thank you.

Great. More expense. Thank you for the heads up. Now I've got to locate a smith.

I have recently done this swap to one of mine. To get the gun together, I had to open up the wood towards the front of the trigger opening of the stock. In addition, I had to have my one- piece bottom metal opened up (milled out) towards the rear in order for the trigger to have enough clearance. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the info. Hope to be working on it by this weekend. Tried to get the factory trigger down last night and it didn't work.
