I have a Winchester M70 Extreme Weather with an MOA trigger. I'd like to replace this with a Timney (TT402-16). This unit is available with various pull weights; is it possible to adjust the weight from the specified setting or is it fixed? Thanks.
 
While I am not sure if exported versions of this product/model differ, the short answer is yes they are all adjustable. However, you can have them pre-set (but still adjustable) at a desired weight if you order one directly from Timney .

I have the same trigger (blued version....I believe yours is in nickel as designated by the -16 suffix) in a recent production Model 70 SuperGrade that came with a factory MOA trigger. I haven't tested the full range, but they can generally be adjusted anywhere from around 1.5 to 4 lbs. I set mine at about 2 1/4.

The recommended answer is call or email Timney.
 
Thank you, mine is pre-set at 3lb but I'll get it fitted by a local gunsmith and ask him to set it at around 2lb if possible.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
