I have a T3 Tactical Rifle, have an ordinary T3X and never thought the Triggers insufficient...'course I'm used to heavy trigger pulls and don't really shoot matches anymore.

I have to look into that. A few years ago I bought a Tikka T3X and installed it into an Oryx chassis in .223 for precision target practice. The trigger seems very light as is but if I can make it lighter I would definitely try it.

the original trigger broke at 3.5 pounds not too bad actually just installed the Mcarbo spring and it's down to a sweet 1.5 pounds i prefer 2 to 1.5 pounds probably could have gotten to the 2 pound mark with the factory trigger

Mcarbo spring is the common fix. But if you want to keep factory parts, polish the sear contact surfaces lightly with a fine stone.
