Elevate Your Remington 700: Precision and Control with the TriggerTech Primary Single-Stage Trigger

For any serious shooter or dedicated hunter, the trigger is the direct interface between their intent and the rifle's performance. It’s the critical link that translates a steady hand and precise aim into a well-placed shot. While the Remington 700 series is renowned for its robust action and accuracy potential, many owners seek to unlock its full capabilities by upgrading the factory trigger. If you're wondering how to achieve tighter groups, improve shot consistency, or gain a distinct advantage in the field, the TriggerTech Primary Single-Stage Traditional Curved Trigger, specifically designed for right-handed Remington 700 rifles (model R70SBS14TBC), stands as a premier solution.

This isn't just an aftermarket accessory; it's a performance enhancer meticulously engineered to transform your shooting experience. Whether you're a long-range precision competitor, a seasoned big-game hunter, or simply an enthusiast dedicated to refining your craft, the TriggerTech Primary offers the kind of crisp, predictable break that inspires confidence and measurably improves your results.

Unlocking Superior Performance: Why a Premium Trigger Matters

What makes a high-quality trigger such a game-changer? Imagine squeezing a trigger and feeling an unpredictable drag, a gritty sensation, or an uncertain moment before the shot breaks. This "creep" can cause you to pull off target, anticipate the shot, and ultimately degrade accuracy. A heavy, inconsistent pull weight can also lead to fatigue and compromise fine motor control, especially during critical moments.

The TriggerTech Primary addresses these fundamental issues head-on, delivering a trigger experience that is often described as "breaking like a glass rod." This means a perfectly clean, crisp release with zero discernible creep, allowing the shooter to maintain absolute focus on the target and follow-through. For Remington 700 owners, upgrading to this single-stage trigger can be the most impactful modification they make to their rifle, often yielding immediate and noticeable improvements in shot placement and overall shooting confidence.

The Engineering Advantage: Frictionless Release Technology and CLKR Technology

At the heart of TriggerTech's superior performance lies its patented Frictionless Release Technology™ (FRT™). Unlike traditional trigger mechanisms that rely on sliding or rolling friction between the sear and the trigger, FRT employs a free-floating roller. This ingenious design completely eliminates the physical friction that causes creep, resulting in an exceptionally smooth and consistent pull.

Here's how Frictionless Release Technology directly benefits the shooter:

• True Zero-Creep Break: The absence of friction between the key engagement surfaces means the trigger doesn't move or drag before breaking. The moment you apply enough force, the sear releases cleanly and instantaneously. This predictability is paramount for precision shooting.
• Enhanced Reliability: By removing contact friction, FRT significantly reduces wear on critical components, enhancing the trigger's longevity and ensuring consistent performance over thousands of cycles. This reliability is maintained even in the harshest environments, from freezing temperatures to dusty conditions, as dirt and debris are less likely to impede the frictionless mechanism.
• Improved Safety Margin: The design contributes to a safer trigger system by maintaining consistent release values regardless of debris, ensuring that the pull weight remains true to its setting.

Complementing FRT is TriggerTech's innovative CLKR Technology™. This system simplifies and refines pull weight adjustment, making it incredibly precise and user-friendly. The TriggerTech Primary for the Remington 700 allows for pull weight adjustments from 1.50 lbs down to 4 lbs, in precise 1-ounce increments.

Key advantages of CLKR Technology:

• External Adjustment: The pull weight can be quickly and easily adjusted using an externally accessible set screw. This means no need to remove the action from the stock, saving time and hassle at the range or in the field.
• Audible and Tactile Clicks: Each adjustment increment produces a distinct click, providing clear feedback to the user. This allows for confident, repeatable adjustments without the need for a trigger pull gauge every time you change the setting.
• Fine-Tuning Capability: The 1-ounce increment adjustments allow for extremely fine-tuning of the trigger pull to suit specific shooting disciplines, ammunition types, or personal preference. Whether you prefer a lighter pull for competition or a slightly heavier one for hunting safety, CLKR Technology provides unmatched control.

Robust Construction for Enduring Performance

Durability and reliability are non-negotiable for a critical rifle component like a trigger. The TriggerTech Primary is constructed from premium materials designed to withstand rigorous use and environmental challenges.

• Hardened 440C Stainless Steel Internal Components: These components are chosen for their exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. This ensures the trigger maintains its precise function and crisp break even after extended exposure to moisture or harsh conditions.
• 7075-T6 Aluminum Housing: The trigger housing is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, an aerospace-grade alloy known for its superior strength-to-weight ratio. This material provides a robust, lightweight foundation for the trigger mechanism, ensuring stability and long-term integrity. The combination of these materials results in a trigger that is not only highly precise but also incredibly rugged and reliable.

Perfect Compatibility: The Remington 700 Platform

The Remington 700 has been a staple in the firearms community for decades, serving as a versatile platform for hunters, competitive shooters, and law enforcement alike. Its robust bolt-action design is known for its inherent accuracy potential. However, many factory Remington 700 triggers, while safe and functional, often leave room for significant improvement in terms of pull weight, consistency, and break quality.

The TriggerTech Primary R70SBS14TBC is a direct, drop-in replacement trigger specifically engineered for right-handed Remington 700 model rifles. This broad compatibility means it will fit a wide range of Remington 700 variants, including popular models like the Remington 700 SPS, 700 ADL, 700 BDL, 700 Sendero, 700 Police, and many custom builds utilizing the Remington 700 footprint. The "Traditional Curved" trigger shoe style offers a familiar and comfortable feel for most shooters, promoting consistent finger placement and control.

Transforming Your Shooting Discipline

The benefits of upgrading to a TriggerTech Primary extend across various shooting disciplines:

For Precision Target Shooters and Competitors:

• Shrink Your Groups: A predictable, zero-creep break allows you to concentrate purely on sight picture and breath control, minimizing any disruption to your aim. This directly translates to tighter groups and higher scores.
• Faster Follow-Up Shots: The extremely short over-travel and crisp reset characteristic of TriggerTech triggers enable quicker, more consistent follow-up shots without disturbing your shooting position.
• Eliminate Anticipation: By removing the "surprise" element of the shot, you eliminate flinching or anticipating the recoil, leading to improved consistency and confidence on the firing line.

For Hunters:

• Critical Shot Confidence: When that once-in-a-lifetime animal steps into view, every element counts. A clean, light trigger allows for precise shot placement under pressure, even in cold weather where numb fingers might struggle with a heavy factory trigger.
• Reduced Scope Cant and Wobble: A trigger that breaks cleanly requires less force, meaning less disturbance to your rifle's position just before the shot. This can be crucial when making long-range shots in varying field positions.
• Enhanced Safety: While adjustable to a light pull weight, the inherent design and reliability of TriggerTech triggers provide a sense of security, ensuring consistent performance without unexpected discharges when properly handled.

For Tactical and Duty Use:

• Reliability Under Stress: The robust construction and Frictionless Release Technology ensure the trigger performs flawlessly in extreme conditions, vital for professional applications where failure is not an option.
• Predictable Performance: Under high-stress scenarios, a predictable trigger break allows for consistent engagement and rapid target acquisition, enhancing operational effectiveness.
• Rugged Durability: Designed to withstand the rigors of tactical environments, from adverse weather to rough handling, ensuring long-term service.

Understanding Trigger Terminology: Single-Stage vs. Two-Stage, Creep, Overtravel, Reset

When discussing triggers, certain terms are frequently used. Understanding them helps appreciate the advantages of the TriggerTech Primary:

• Single-Stage Trigger: In a single-stage trigger, the entire pull weight is applied from the moment you begin pressing until the shot breaks. There is no initial "take-up" or slack. The TriggerTech Primary excels as a single-stage trigger by delivering an immediate, crisp break with no creep whatsoever, making it ideal for precision and fast engagement.
• Creep: This refers to any movement or "grittiness" in the trigger shoe before the sear releases. It’s undesirable because it creates uncertainty and can cause the shooter to pull off target. The TriggerTech's Frictionless Release Technology completely eliminates creep.
• Overtravel: This is the distance the trigger shoe continues to move rearward after the shot has broken. Excessive overtravel can disrupt follow-through and delay subsequent shots. The TriggerTech Primary is engineered with extremely minimal overtravel for superior control.
• Reset: This is the distance the trigger shoe must travel forward after a shot before the trigger mechanism resets and is ready for the next shot. A short, positive reset is beneficial for rapid, accurate follow-up shots. TriggerTech triggers are known for their short and tactile reset.

Installation and Maintenance Considerations

One of the great features of the TriggerTech Primary for the Remington 700 is its drop-in design. For most competent firearm owners, installation is straightforward and can be completed without the need for a professional gunsmith, though always consult a qualified gunsmith if you are unsure or uncomfortable performing the work yourself. Clear instructions are typically provided, and the process generally involves removing the action from the stock, detaching the old trigger, and securing the new TriggerTech unit.

Due to the inherent design of Frictionless Release Technology, which minimizes internal wear, the TriggerTech Primary requires very little maintenance. Unlike traditional triggers that might benefit from periodic cleaning and lubrication of engagement surfaces, the FRT system is less susceptible to performance degradation from fouling or debris. This means more time shooting and less time on maintenance.
