It doesn't, Dig. I am certainly not promoting coil over leaf for all applications. I have both, and appreciate both. I was just addressing your points.
The finest triggers in the world are not British, they are not even shotgun. Perhaps I should have made myself clearer, that I was referring to triggers on benchrest rifles. Triggers on them have reached perfection, necessarily so. The finest shotgun trigger I own is on my MX-8, leaf springs, but they are not in the ballpark with benchrest rifle triggers. My point, which I did not make very clearly, is that, if leaf springs were entirely superior to coil springs, they would be used in the benchrest rifle triggers.
Coil springs are kinda like semi-automatic shotguns. They are just......... made. Fine doubles, wherever they originate, and good leaf springs in them, are crafted.
All my best, Stan
