What AR Trigger replacement do you like for Hunting?

[TheGDog]

Looking for recommendations on what to save up for on a Trigger replacement for my BushMaster (5.56). The trigger it comes with has way too heavy of a trigger pull.

Looking for light, with a very short throw.

Initially researching - Sounds like a Geissele SSA-E might be just what I'm looking for. But figured I'd ask around in here, and get input from those of you who routinely use an AR as a hunting rig.

Plan is to eventually try using the carbine while predator calling.

Can never go wrong with a timney.

Geissele are great of you have the money you won’t regret it.

I have an SSA and like that. I would say that you used to be able to score deals on them from PSA pretty routinely but yeah I think that time has passed.

I like the HiperFire Hipertouch competition. https://www.hiperfire.com/product/hipertouch-competition/ (its the old 24C)

Double spring, more complicated mechanism. But very nice

Yeah, I've also seen a lot of kudos for this one as well. And they were saying it's slightly less than the SSA-E

When all is said and done, I'd like it to feel as nice as my Savage AccuTrigger on the .308 Bolt gun. At least in terms of the break. And the light poundage.

Two springs = faster lock-time than any of the other triggers. Fast lock-time is a component of accuracy.

 

[TheGDog]

So...by "lock-time" do we mean that from the moment of activation/break, until it actually fires.... that duration is shorter/less thus less time elapsed for your bio-mechanical movements to disrupt and waggle the barrel off aim in-between?

Ooooh!.. @NBK This right here has VERY much piqued my Interest! ..."The shoe feels real similar to a 1911 curved trigger, little wider. Actually, the whole thing feels like a good 1911 trigger ".

I loves me some 1911 trigger.

Hiperfire, The SEALS use it as their go to on their weapons and they put their lives on the line everytime they go to work. I have it and on mine and it goes boom at three pounds pressure everytime I put pressure on it.

Shorter question
Kindly define lock time?

The ssa is a good trigger but the nm trigger is epic good.

Trigger lock time in a gun is usually defined as the time from when the sear breaks to when the firing pin (or striker) hits the primer. It is the time that the "lock" (which is the firing mechanism in a gun) takes from being tripped to causing the gun to fire.

Properly explained and very important regardless of the firearm being used short or long...
