Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
Would like some advice or opinions on my Matrix 380 trigger.Nothing at all wrong with it but interested in making an improvement-so
is it worth the effort or money to have your stock trigger reworked either by oneself or someone else or not bother and just go all the way and get a triggertech?
If anyone has done or has had a trigger redone for them,I would really like to hear from you.

Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
My 355 had a terrible trigger, i send it to warranty repair n it was very usable when returned. I reckon if'en i had the samolians to jus let go i would get a single stage TT to use huntin. So its jus up to you n pocketbook. I am pleased enuff with mine reworked.
Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
Well I've heard don or Boo, or Danny Miller are really good at smoothing out a great trigger. Don't know what they charge ? But I'm sure you could call and p.m. Boo. Dannys # is 740-483-2313, Let us know what you decide...

Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
thanks for the post-can you compare the "sweetness" of both the triggers? For example-is it worth the extra cash to go for the triggertech to get 100% "sweetness" or is a cheaper reworked stock trigger a better value to get say 75% "sweetness".Hunt it wrote:My 380'trigger was reworked by Boo, I love it.

How much did it cost for you to have your trigger reworked by BOO? I know how much a triggertech is and I had one on my previous Excalibur.
thanks alot

Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
I had a smoothed out trigger in my 355. It was just about the same as a single stage TT.

Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
I think Boo does trigger polishing, send him a PM.
Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
After installing a massaged trigger, I wish I would have done it sooner. I would give a vote to Boo, for a massaged trigger.

Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
I took the stock trigger out of my old Vortex, took it apart and polished it up with metal polish and put in back in. It was a lot smoother after that. Not sure what the other guys do when they do a trigger job, but a little metal polish went a long way with mine.

Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
I can't say on the TT's never owned or shot one. I have had 2 reworked by Danny n i am happy wid'em. I am sure if'en i had $150 to splurge i would enjoy the single stage TT very much!

Not knocking you if this is what you want to do, but I don't get it.motorcycle wrote:Would like some advice or opinions on my Matrix 380 trigger.Nothing at all wrong with it but interested in making an improvement
My trigger is working fine. Has been since I got the bow a number of years back. I shoot the bow easily 1000 times a year.
Why mess with something that works?
You can drop some bucks on a replacement trigger and get nothing you don't already have - a "functioning" trigger.
Or is there something "specific" you are trying to gain/improve?
If not, it's kinda like swapping arrows just because everyone else is shooting the new "super bolts".

Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
ok-I`ll give Don a shout and get it sent off too him.Get him to polish the string claw as well since it will be easy with it being apart.Just hope he still does them.Thanks everybody for the comments.
Re: Triggertech or reworked stock trigger?
I'm not trying to be confrontational either, but the difference is night and day. I happen to buy a trigger, more because I wanted to modify it for other reasons. I bought it because the price was great. I'm only shooting a Phoenix, a fairly light weight Xbow, so I figured there was no way it was going to improve my Xbow. The trigger was done by Danny Miller, I had no complaints with my original, very smooth, with a predictable creap and thought there was no way you could make it any better. That was until I installed the new one and I couldn't believe the difference, I wouldn't think twice about doing another one, it's that good.galamb wrote:Not knocking you if this is what you want to do, but I don't get it.motorcycle wrote:Would like some advice or opinions on my Matrix 380 trigger.Nothing at all wrong with it but interested in making an improvement
