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.

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.
