Will a 40x rim fire trigger work on a 700

The 'Type 2' 40X trigger should work on a 700 short-action, yes. If the 40X trigger is from an older 722 based model, it will NOT due to the difference in the location and format of the safeties.

Give me a minute, and I'll post pics of the two type.

Type 1 (older)

Type 2-

A little more help....

Older rimfire 40X rifles are the 722 action.

Newer rimfire 40X's are actualyy model 40XB, and the rifle and possibly the trigger will have a serial # that has a 'B' in it. These triggers will fit the 700.

Enough with the name calling. This is INGO, not Kindergarten. You are warned.

Have to admit that it's obvious there's some animosity there, but why ridicule someone for providing some really good technical advice?

Thanks, trigger I was looking at is for a 722 40x, won't work with my 700.

FWIW, I just put a Timney trigger in the new 300 Win Mag I am building up. It's an awesome trigger. It absolutely blows the craptastic Xmark Pro trigger away that was in it. I have 2 other 700's that are going to get the same treatment.
