I had the 527 I sold it. Now my buddy has one too. I was shooting his 527 next to my tikka this weekend. I adjusted the 527 trigger to 2lbs no creep or overtravel.The standard trigger is just ok. The set trigger is totaly awesome. The tikka standard trigger is better and I was able to adjust it lower, all the way down to 1 lb 12 oz but I settled on 2lbs 1oz. The tikka trigger breaks better, no creep, and you don't have to take the gun apart to adjust it thats the best part. I like that I can dial it all the way down to sight the gun in. Then I can go back to a safe hunting trigger without takeing it apart.
Both 527 triggers I've played with are not consistent with the standard trigger. THey vary by about 3 or 4 oz. So if its set at 2lbs it may break as low as 1 LB 14 oz or as high as 2 lbs 2oz. The Tikka trigger is 2lb 1 oz every time.
an externaly adjustable rifle basix might be really sweet. If not the standard trigger needs a little work. The set trigger is great but set triggers have a long lock time. To improve the set triggers lock time you could use JNP striker spring its worth it.
