I'm more than happy with my Jard 14oz trigger I swapped to last week.
No issue with safety although it requires virtually no force to move it… This is good to know if you plan to hunt with a Jard trigger.
On the quality side I can't feel any difference between my new Jard trigger and a friends Jewel trigger.I hate the original Tikka triggers since they are so heavy to use and this one really changed my rilfe!

We haven't. Our web guy disappeared on us… Soooo we're hiring a new one.
Jard also redesigned their Tikka triggers so we had to do a new test on the current version and I am almost done editing that video.
In the mean time we set up a YouTube channel and will start loading videos shortly.
Sorry for the delay.
Once the video is loaded I will post the link here.
Is the new version better than the old one? Any noticeable differences?

Would you be willing to do a little torture test? Like put the safety on and hit the butt of the rifle on the ground a few times to see if it releases the firing pin. Then disengage the safety to see if the firing pin releases. See if you can pull the trigger with the saftey engaged. Those are all I have heard complaints about. if you would be willing to do that I would really appreciate it. Thanks

I've both “slammed” the butt on the floor and tried to pull the trigger whilst in safety and this was fully safe.
By looking at the mechanism itself it shows that this will be pretty impossible.The safety doesn't lock the action so you can empty the chamber without using the safety, that's nice!
All in all I'm very happy with my Jard trigger and since it's so cheap just order one and swap out the horrible original one 😉
I'm using the 14oz model.It only costs about the same as a descent bottle of single malt Whisky (Scottish that is) so there's no excuse not to buy one!

Thank you Wizard! I'll take a Glen Morangie Quinta Ruban
The video will cover trigger pull consistency, drop test, safety test, and overall durability test.
I actually like torture testing products. The environment and mountains out our back door make for some excellent testing grounds. One product that just failed a torture test was the standard EGW rail. Even with the tactical rings mounted and torqued correctly, it was damaged under the recoil of my ultralite 270 wsm with a heavy scope on top.
FYI the HD EGW passed the test.
If it will stop raining/snowing here, I'll get some more range footage and get that trigger video posted!

Ya kinda worried me about the EGW rail failing but then saw the HD one passed. That's the one I have.
