Tired of having to work out before I squeeze the trigger on my .223 .... looking through the Midway USA catalog and they list a few different models of replacement triggers.
So ... any particular brand better than the others for this gun?
How hard is it to do? Smith needed or is it a DIY job?
Looking at the timney adjustable. Other brands would be considered if someone points me in a different direction.

Timney, Jewell, Rifle Basix, you can't go wrong with any of them. It's all a matter of how badly you want your wallet to hurt. ;D
As for installation, I don't know on that aspect. I've put a Timney on a Mauser and it took a bit of work, but it was 100+ years old too....

$@#!*!! lawyer triggers. All my old guns (30 years plus) have light, relatively creepless triggers that it would take a trigger job to achieve now. I bought an old ithaca rifle that was a fairly inexpensive gun at the time it was made and it has a great trigger. It's the same with my ruger standard pistol.

Rugers usually seem to have the worst triggers. My Remington 700BDL 30-06 that my dady bought in 1975 has a nice crisp and light trigger.

I put a timney in my Ruger 77 all weather, .270. Follwed directions and wasn't too hard to do.
Have the same rifle in .223 and an old timer gunsmith did some file and stone work to get the trigger on it real nice, he's dead now. Not sure there are too many guys around that know how to do a good job like that anymore.
