Browning X-Bolt .223 trigger

It is not easy. Lowest you can get it down to is about 3lbs if your lucky. They are sealed. I know it has been done by one or two competent people but I just sold it and bought a Tika.
Which translated to English means 3 lbs.

The triggers on the couple of newer X bolts that I have fired were fitted with feather weight triggers. They seemed good to me, I certainly wasn't aware of them being at all heavy. There again these rifles were rifles used by the Browning reps so possibly not representative of all.

I am looking to get my rifle down to 2 pound. At the moment it is so heavy and I feel it is having a negative impact on the groups I am shooting.

The rifle I have has a feather light but it seems really heavy to me. I have a Sako which is at 2lb and I’m looking to have both rifles sitting about the same.

I've got mine down to 3lb but it still way to heavy for me & I'm not happy yet.
I'm glad you've given this a good review as mine is in the post, shouldn't be long before its here.

Good to hear, my trigger spring is currently on route. How did you find it to swap the springs over? Easy enough?
Just buy a timmney replacement trigger and save yourself a headache, I've had two Brownings and this way you will end up with a good trigger.

My Gunbloke spring turned up yesterday.
The browning one is short with not much give, where as the gunbloke one is about a 3rd longer with a thinner gauge wire(more give).
Easy to fit. just push the trigger pin out & swap over the spring.
Feels loads better already without even shooting it.
