Reliant Hunter And Pro Triggers LEDE

Rise Triggers has entered the bolt-action market with its first-ever trigger for the Remington 700 platform: the Reliant Hunter and Reliant Pro triggers.

Designed to deliver both performance and reliability, Reliant triggers offer an easy, drop-in upgrade for Remington 700 and Remington 700 clone bolt-action rifles. With lightning-fast lock times, they enable shooters to achieve greater accuracy by reducing the delay between pulling the trigger and the firing pin’s action.

The Reliant Hunter Trigger, geared toward hunters, features user-friendly external adjustability with a preset pull weight of 3.5 pounds. For precision shooters, the Reliant Pro Trigger offers a lighter preset pull weight of two pounds and unparalleled customizability, with external overtravel adjustment and pull weight adjustment ranging from less than one pound to more than three pounds.

Rise's patent-pending safety design exceeds SAAMI standards, significantly reducing the risk of accidental discharges. The result is a trigger that is as safe as it is consistent.

As with all Rise products, the Reliant triggers are backed by a lifetime warranty and the Rise More-Bang-for-Your-Buck Performance Guarantee, which allows shooters to try it for 30 days, and if it doesn’t deliver, Rise will replace it or buy it back.
