Taking up the trigger slack

[Barn Side]

Apologies for a stupid question, but at what stage do you take up the slack in precision shooting (i.e. two breaths from releasing the shot etc)?

quality/properly adjusted triggers shouldn't have slack

Have you ever felt a 2 stage trigger?

Depending on 1 or 2 stage trigger, I'll take up the slack on the breath I'm shooting on (single stage) or take up the slack at least two breaths prior on 2 stage. It's what ever YOU are most comfortable with and your ability to do it repetitively...

Re: Taking up the trigger slack

On my two-stage Sako trigger I take it up a few breaths before. Seems to work well for me. I also do this on pistols too. I guess its a personal choice, as others have stated.
