    Quad and Finnfire trigger weight springs

    Hi chaps I have just replaced these on my hmr Quad and Finnfire with custom springs from Dave Wylde at Valkyrie Rifles. I'm well pleased, the finnfire now breaks about 600g and the quad is just under 500g. Initially the quad went down to 300g when I screwed it back together with the new spring, which was too light for me. I did not check for the lowest obtainable setting btw. Both passed the bump test. Price was two for £10. Be careful as you take the old spring out as it is sits on a spring guide pin and this fits with the long side towards the trigger and the short end has the spring on it facing outwards behind the grub screw. You'll see what I mean when it comes out.. These springs will fit other Sako and Tikka's with the same type of trigger unit.

    That's a lot

    my Target Finnfire with a Kurt westfall modified jewell trigger fires at 1.5oz which equates to 42.5 grams
    superb set off with no influence on the target caused by pull etc fires like breaking glass

    Yep but I'm using mine in the field not off a bench.

    Having never done it, I presume its a simple process. My Quad trigger is as light as the Allen grub screw allows before hitting the restrictor screw.

    I may just try it myself if it's a cheap trigger improvement.
