Trigger Upgrade: Timney, 25 Cent, or Leave the Damn Thing Alone?
#1
So, as my journey to improve incremental aspects of the Howa 6.5G mini go, I am considering adding a Timney trigger. I have read all of the great recommendations and wisdom from threads on this board and priced this one out. I even thought I might just take a few bites out of the factory trigger spring to see if I could clean it up myself. If that doesn’t do it, Timney is on deck. Has anyone here tried the trigger job on the factory one and if so how did it turn out?

I really like two-stage triggers and have not had too much trouble with the factory one. It could be a little smoother, and maybe a touch lighter. Is the Timney a two-stage and adjustable?

I borrowed a friends Wheeler trigger pull gauge to get a baseline on the factory pull weight. I was very surprised to get a consistent 2 1/2lb pull. I’m not sure I need to take too much off of that pull weight, 1/2lb maybe. All of this being said, I would like to know your thoughts on the value of the upgrade in my scenario.

Thanks in advance!
