For me I ran a 1.5lbs trigger for quite some time. I'm currently running a Timney Calvin Elite 2 stage with an 8oz 1st stage and 1lbs 2nd stage(non savage Rifle) I find the lighter break has made me more consistent after being used to the heavier trigger. I was always taught that the trigger should surprise you before I got into serious precision shooting. I think that's good in the beginning as you should be focused on your sites and learning to do that properly in the early stages. Now that all that is for the most part muscle memory it has become more important that I know exactly when my trigger is going to break in order to break it at the right time.

With that a trigger is a very personal part of the firearm. I don't personally like "touch off" triggers. I like to feel it and therefore prefer about a 1lb break.
