I put a calvin elite in my 700. I've been super happy with it. Taking out the stock one was a pain.
Some people say to avoid certain aftermarket triggers that don't perform well in dusty environments. That may be worth looking into for yourself. The only trigger I have had an issue with acting funny while dirty was an ar with (I think) a Chip McCormick. I think the suppressor helped foul it up and it wouldn't reset consistently.

Pharting around?

I think any of the above mentioned triggers will suit your needs.

If price is an issue, I'd contact Erud above on his used Jewel. Erud is a straight shooter (I knew him back when he was still cool) and won't do you wrong.
I will never apologize for being an American.

+2

I put timney Calvin elites I 2 700s. They dropped right in, and are very repeatable on my trigger gauge. Easy to tune and shoot nice.
