David Petzal is correct about people messing up the Remington 700 trigger by trying to lower the pull weight below 3 pounds without making other changes to keep the trigger safe. The trigger return spring must be replaced by a spring that is lighter but longer than the original so the trigger always has return pressure to reset. A little maintenance every couple years isneeded to keep the trigger clean. Pore quality oils dry and create "varnish" that locks up the triggers. Sometimes they actually lock up. Amateurs with a screwdriver do make the triggers unsafe.
