I want to order one of these for my highpower gun but have not heard anything about them, are they a good trigger? First hand experience please.

Looks a lot like a Jackson. I have a Jackson and have had NO problems with it.

Kevin /Jerry, They are actually a Jackson trigger. Due to import restrictions X-Treme (Tom Myers) struck a agreement and makes them here in the US. If you do a search on Jackson Triggers you can find the article, it's been some time since I read it. They are a great trigger, if you like two stage. I had one on my HP but didn't care for it on the HP rifle and went to a single stage Jewell. As soon as Tom's under safety one is done I will have one on my SB rifle.

I have one of the original New Zealand Jackson triggers on my F Classer and it is absolutely phenomenal.

So when I built my 260 silhouette rifle on a M700 I bought one of the newer USA made jobbies. I fought with it for two months and could never get the creep out of it so it went away.

Take that for what you paid for it. :)

I've heard that some folks think there great and others not so much, is it a change in mfg's or quality control from one trigger to the next?
Anyone bought one recently?
