As to what's currently available, I don't know how the HSNM wasn't the first and only post.

Quoted: If one trigger costs $100 and a different trigger costs $250, I would expect that the $250 trigger is 2.5 times better, however that is rarely the case. The really expensive triggers are usually better, just not enough better that I think their price is justified. So, I'll go with the 3.5 pound $100 two stage trigger. If there was a price/quality benefits were equal, (IOW the $250 trigger was 2.5 times as good) I would probably buy the $250 one. Until then, I'll wait. My experience has shown me that for price/value/quality the Larue MBT-2 trigger has yet to be beaten. I readily admit Geisselle makes good triggers....I just don't find the price/value/quality to be worthwhile. View Quote There's more to it though. In my experience, the MBT was fine until it started getting dirty, worse so with suppressed guns that throw a lot of shit back into the receiver. The MBT's pull gets very gritty and inconsistent the dirtier it gets, whereas the G triggers are pretty consistent as long no matter how much you throw at them. That consistency is worth it to me, so I abandoned all of my MBTs and have Geisseles in all of my rifles now. |

Quoted: As to what's currently available, I don't know how the HSNM wasn't the first and only post. View Quote Because GD is filled with people that don’t know what they’re talking about and only have one trigger. Maybe two. People are throwing out all kinds of random shit that doesn’t match what OP originally said he was looking for. They’re just listing their favorite (read only) trigger. |

Man, that’s like asking what’s the best car available today.
I think you have to start out by asking yourself what you prefer, single stage or two stage. I prefer single stage, but to each his own. I have a Geissele 3-gun and a few others, but I keep going back to the JP Enterprises single stage. Not only is it adjustable, but you can polish up the engagement surfaces and get an unreal trigger. Light, smooth, crisp, virtually no take up, short reset. And I can buy two JPEs and have money left over compared to buying a single Geissele 3-gun at full price. I’ve paid as low as $75 for a JPE and my Geissele was $150 during last year’s fall sale at Primary Arms. |

OP asked for the best. When someone wants the best price isn’t usually a consideration. |

Quoted: A direct ratio of cost vs. benefit doesn't apply to the shooting world where the law of diminishing returns is strong. Are my $4k scopes four time better than a $1k scope? No, but they are measurably better, and a worthwhile investment for me. Are my match rifles five times better than a Bergara? No but they are better in every measurable way, and a worthwhile investment for me. The MBT is a fine trigger for the price, but it isn't better than a G trigger. Is it worth it to you? That's your decision. View Quote This is exactly it. There are a lot of products which hit the sweet spot in terms of price to performance. In the trigger world you can get a lot of performance around the $100 mark. Is a $250 trigger incrementally better? Yes. Is it worth it to some people for some applications? Certainly. But the vast majority of people will be very well served with a $100 trigger. I’m not putting $250 triggers in every rifle, there’s no reason to waste the money. |

I strongly prefer 2-stage triggers because I like the "wall" as a known let off point. My LRP-07 has a tuned up single stage trigger from JP. Its a fine precision trigger in its own right. But Im not in my comfort zone when behind it. So for my tastes the 2-stage design of the G HSNM makes it perfect. |

Anyone who claims an MBT is better than a Geissele:
A - doesn't shoot enough to know the difference B - has never shot a Geissele |

Geissele High Speed National Match is the best precision trigger I have experienced, and ironically enough, I only have one of them and it's not in a precision rifle . I got a smoking deal for Black Friday or some holiday and it was the large pin which I needed for my Colt H-Bar. I feel somewhat guilt for it being in there. I have several other Geisselle triggers in other rifles, and have used the MBT as well. I found what worked for me and stuck with it, no need to keep looking.

Any two stage trigger with a clean break will do.
If you need to adjust it down to a hair trigger in order to shoot decent groups, you're doing it to compensate for shitty trigger control. |

SSA-E is very good. I run it in rifles that will see lots of field use, like hunting, where I don't want the additional complexity of adjustments But the NM is best for 2 stage As others have said the AR Gold is very good, they claim it is 2 stage but the first stage is nearly imperceptible. It's very similar to a good single stage bolt rifle trigger.But I sold mine and standardized on G |

Quoted: If you want ultimate precision, you use one of these. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/206831/1540978547_1425606_jpg-2837839.JPG View Quote Just ordered a Calvin Elite. Hope I didn’t waste $ didn’t see it mentioned here. |

If you want a better trigger Giessele is the answer. I know most suggest the two stage versions but I really like the SSP. I don't care for the take up on two stage triggers, but I guess that's because I'm used to light single stage bolt gun triggers.

Then a beacon of hope shines. Larue trigger is fine for the money. But to say it’s anywhere near a G trigger is crazy. |

The larue fan bois are showing up hard in this thread. I like marks stuff, I even have 4 MBTs. That being said, to say his mbt is the same or better than a HSNM is straight up idiotic and shows they are talking out of their ass. I have 3 HSNM's in all my precision rigs. Usually when I'm building a precision rifle, I'll throw a mbt in it so I can function check it and even do basic break in and work ups on it while I wait for a HSNM to show up on sale somewhere.

I like the MBT and the higher end Hyperfires
ETA: I love Gissele triggers, but he cost over the MBT for a percentage of an improvement is not worth it for 99% of people. |
