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.
 
I'd like to get one on my .375 M70 set at about 8oz with a serrated trigger. It would match my No. 1's.

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
