Without breaking the bank. 80.00 - 120.00 would be nice. This would be for hog hunting from a blind. AR is a Bushmaster. Thanks guys.

For the price, the Spikes Battle trigger sure is nice and a huge improvement over most of the stiff gritty feeling stock triggers.

We have a cmc and like it.

Of the ones that are less then like $80, may want to add a set of JP trigger stprings. It will lighten the pull but the smoothness will not change.

I have a Timney and it's awesome but above your budget. I have polished milspec before and added the JP springs along with the set screw that reduces travel and it is 10x better than milspec. But it ain't no Timney.

Rock river 2 stage. Have replaced most of my ars with it. Great trigger for the money.

It's the trigger that you shoot best. I have owned and do own many of these triggers and I can't tell you which is best. I shoot a regular polished mil spec trigger most and for me, that would be my hunting rifle. I know the break every time.
There has been times I hunted using my timney and I would fire before I wanted to due to the very light trigger... there is no best trigger for your situation, other than the trigger you are most accustomed with.
The very light triggers are great for target practice but I also prefer something a little more heavy when popping pigs.

RRA Varmint, around $100 online and definitely a nice upgrade.

Elf or CMC flat with preference to CMC flat. Best value imo is the saber by jmt or the rise armament "hunting Trigger". Also jp springs and 3000grit sand paper do wonders.

I have a JP match, but it's not a drop-in and required some experienced adjustment by someone else.
