      ok based on the fact that the couple guys that tried this with mechanical guns couldve been measuring in pounds instead of ounces...i'd be happy even if you were to cut that in half...

      obviously go as low as you can Tom
      if you can do 8 ounces on a mag(i don't think some of us realize how light that is...)
      i think you'd have a winner

              Anything under 12 would be great, and if He (The Great and Powerfull Kaye) is going to use magnets the trigger will feel twice as good. I shot my friend's Nasty with the magno blade and it is sick, I could not imagine that kind of pull combined with the RT system, mmmmmm....Pie?

              Im going to do a test on my RT in a few minutes, Ill see if maybe Tyson's trigger has an edge on other Rt's.

              Also if you need a Beta tester PICK ME PICK ME .
              That all I have to say about that.

                    I just hope whatever TK has up his sleeve, it doesn't include me buying an x-valve.. hehe..

                    I just don't have the money for that :]

                      hmmm my rt feels very light right now, then i feel 2 ounces of quarters and it makes my think about how heavy the pull realy is, for me if the pull is realy light then reactiveness omg that will be kicking

                      im hoping for 7-9 oz

                        Tom,
                        The real question is, how light can you make it?

                          I think a higher priority should be making the pull smoother, although once you get down in the 8 ounce range it can't be real snappy. I'd say 6-8 ounces would get me excited.

                            hmm

                            I am suprised there is not more of a response..

                            maybe there should be a new thread for what you want the trigger pull to be. i think alot of people stopped coming here to this thread, or at least alot stopped posting..
