My Savage A17 Sporter .17 WSM had to take another trip to Savage for problems. Rifle has returned and I am happy with the results.

I ordered a Timney trigger for my Ruger 5.56 rifle yesterday.

I haven't had many Timney triggers, I have heard good things but what are they like?

I have heard nothing but good things about them. I am still waiting for it to arrive.

When I couldn't find a Jewel trigger for one of my Sako's, and finding a Canjar single set trigger was like looking for chicken lips, I installed a Timney and adjusted it to right at 1 lb. It installed easily, adjustment was also no bother, and it passes the bolt-slam test with no discharge.
Since then I've put them in two other rifles and find them to be completely reliable and well made. Another excellent option is the Jard triggers. I've got four of them in my Cooper rifles, all set at 10 ozs, as they're only for my bench guns used for live varmint shooting.

Do you like them all pretty much the same?

I like the Timney triggers for old military rifles I've converted to hunting rifles. The flip lever safety is really nice in place of the original bolt safety.

I've seen photos of a Brno 465, which had the double set trigger, where the double set trigger had been removed and a Mauser 98 Timney trigger fitted
