I bet the report is that he loves the trigger.
I have four Geissele triggers and one Jewel two stage. The only reason I have a Jewel is that it came with a Les Baer Thunder Ranch AR. I requested that Les substitute a Geissele but he refused, saying the Jewel was the best trigger on the market. I knew better, but accepted it anyway, it isn't a bad trigger after all. About six months later Les changed over to the Geissele's, I guess he finally tried one.
I've also had several Rock River two stage match triggers, they can be tuned to very good performance as well, but will not stand up to heavy use over time and still make weight, eventually loosing the second stage.
This is why the Geissele triggers absolutely dominate at the national matches. They stay the same year after year. I have over 14,000 rounds on one of mine and it has made weight three years in a row at the nationals, picking up the 4.5 lb weights only if carefully lifted smoothly without tremor, it is set at 4lbs, 9 ozs. (4.5 lbs minimum is required for service rifle)
At the 2010 Orange Blossom Regional match I shot a 200-14X using the Geissele trigger. This means I hit the x ring 14 times out of 20 rounds in the rapid fire sitting stage at 200 yards and the six that missed the x were still in the ten ring. For this stage you have 60 seconds to fire ten shots including a required magazine change, and then do it again. It requires very precise trigger control to do this. The Geissele high speed gives me this level of control.
