Duration: 14:38

This video compares the TriggerTech Diamond and Bix 'n Andy TX Sport Pro triggers, highlighting their similarities and differences in feel, adjustability, and maintenance. It emphasizes proper bolt lubrication techniques, recommending dry lube for most of the bolt to prevent debris from entering the trigger mechanism and causing failures. The speaker, Justin from Precision Rifle Network, shares insights from extensive PRS competition experience.

Quick Summary

To prevent trigger failures, minimize lubricant on your rifle's bolt. Excessive grease or oil attracts dust and debris that can enter the trigger mechanism. Opt for dry lubricants on the bolt's main housing and use grease sparingly in specific high-friction areas only.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main differences between TriggerTech Diamond and Bix 'n Andy TX Sport Pro triggers for PRS?

The TriggerTech Diamond offers a very crisp break with an immediate, solid back wall. The Bix 'n Andy TX Sport Pro can have slight creep and overtravel, but it allows for user access to internals for cleaning and sear adjustment, offering more tunability.

How can I prevent trigger failures in my rifle?

A common cause of trigger failures is excessive lubricant on the bolt, which attracts dust and debris. Minimize grease on the bolt, using dry lubricants for the majority of it and only small amounts in specific friction points.

Can I clean the internals of a TriggerTech Diamond trigger?

No, the TriggerTech Diamond has a void sticker that prevents disassembly for cleaning without voiding the warranty. Maintenance typically involves using cleaning chemicals without taking the trigger apart.

What is the advantage of the Bix 'n Andy TX Sport Pro trigger's design?

The Bix 'n Andy TX Sport Pro's advantage lies in its user-serviceable design, allowing access to internals for cleaning and adjustment of sear engagement. This offers greater tunability, though it may retain some overtravel.
