Omark Remington 700 trigger

#1 Postby Roman » Tue Jan 25, 2022 9:17 am

Hi guys. I'm new to f class. Is a Remington 700 Timney trigger a straight drop in for an Omark 44 or are there modifications required. Thanks

You need to modify the cocking piece in 1 or 2 ways .

Dependent on when your omark was built will determine if it has a square of angled cocking piece .
If angled you follow the same angle and file it back carefully until the timing is correct .
If it is square you need to set the angle to match and then time the action .

Before people say this can’t be done please see attached image .
That is a Remington 700 trigger that has been modified to be a 3 lever “Remington 2oz” trigger .

I’m glad you asked this question Roman. This is the plan I have for my Omark as well. Cheers

before going to far with omarks make sure your bolt head retainer pin is large pin or else most ranges will not allow it on range

20 years ago I fitted a Shilen 2oz trigger to my Omark. It was a "drop in" no mods required.
With a trigger weight rule change I changed to a Jewell. With this I had to file the cocking piece back. Mine is the angled version. A bit of a nervous job. File a bit, try, file a bit, try.
I rehardened the cocking piece once I had correct timing.
