Got a SX3 Longbeard and have it just about set up the way I want it. Is a trigger job worth the money? I was looking at letting Ballistic Specialists, I think that's the name, do it if it would be worth it and a noticeable difference. Put a Venom on top last season and love it!

If you cannot squeeze the trigger and find the need to pull it, absolutely a trigger job would help you. My SX2 has a decent trigger so I didn't have to replace it. I find it that i need to 'squeeze' for turkey hunting rather than 'pull' for wing shooting. Just my opinion and good luck with it.

I have had several trigger jobs done by Ballistic Specialties on TriStar shotguns and have been very pleased. To me it was well worth the money.

Put a Timney trigger kit on my 870. Definitely smoothed it out, nice and crisp. I recommend it if your trigger is sloppy. Good luck

I had my 835 worked on, since mine didn't come with the LPA trigger, and it made a BIG difference. The creep in the trigger is gone and it is a crisp 3 pound pull. Worth the money IMO.

No way I would shoot a turkey gun that has a bad trigger any more than I would shoot a rifle with a bad one.

I put a macabo spring in the trigger of my 870 for about $10. Made a big difference

No, just pull the trigger. Waste your money on something else IMO.
