Help CenterAll of our adjustable triggers are factory-set to approximately 3.5 lbs., measured at the center of the trigger shoe using our DVORAK TriggerScan™ System. However, the trigger's adjustability range extends beyond this initial setting.
Lower Limit:
- The lowest achievable pull weight is dependent on the specific rifle's mechanics.
- We have seen elite competition shooters achieve pull weights below 1 lb., although we do not recommend this due to potential reliability issues.
Upper Limit:
- Customers have successfully increased the pull weight to 4-5 lbs.
- This higher weight is often preferred by long-distance/sniper shooters, particularly when wearing gloves, or those who desire a heavier trigger pull.
Practical Considerations:
- Most shooters find the factory 3.5 lb. setting optimal and do not need to make adjustments.
- Finger placement on the trigger can affect the perceived pull weight. Placing your finger lower on the flat trigger shoe will decrease the necessary break weight, due to the lever mechanics.
- Adjustments should be made incrementally, with thorough testing after each change.
Key Takeaways:
- Factory setting is approximately 3.5 lbs.
- Adjustability range extends below 1 lb. (not recommended) and up to 4-5 lbs.
- Rifle mechanics influence the lowest achievable pull weight.
- Finger placement affects perceived pull weight.
- Most users do not need to adjust the trigger.
