Timney's Elite Hunter Now Available for Model 700

Phoenix, Arizona (January 22, 2019) — Timney Triggers, the oldest and largest trigger manufacturer in the world and the leader in the aftermarket trigger category, announced today the next evolution of accuracy in a drop-in, replacement trigger for the iconic Remington Model 700 and Model 700 footprint actions is here – The Timney Elite Hunter.

“The Model 700 was introduced in 1962 and Timney’s customers requested an aftermarket trigger for the 700 shortly thereafter,” said Calvin Motley, Director of Product Development for Timney. “John Vehr and I took a look at the Timney design in 2004 when I began working with him and made improvements based on what we had available at the time – as far as metals and machines. And we have been constantly improving and expanding our 700 offerings since that day. In fact, that is exactly what we did again with the Elite Hunter trigger. I took my 14 years of knowledge and engineering on our 700 replacement triggers and came up with what I think is the absolute best hunting trigger we’ve built for the Model 700.”

Timney engineered every component of the new Elite Hunter to elevate your accuracy with fully-adjustable over travel and pull weight. The Elite Hunter is adjustable from 1 ½ - 4 pounds and includes a bolt stop release and a trigger blocking side safety to ensure reliability.

The trigger’s sear and trigger shoe are precision-machined, heat treated to 56 Rockwell with a black oxide trigger coating and an NP-3 plated sear for maximum lubricity and a lifetime of reliable performance. The Elite Hunter is backed by the legendary Timney No Hassle, Lifetime Warranty.

The new Elite Hunter is Timney’ s latest overnight success – 72 years in the making.
