In the American Rifleman article abut the 2020 rimfire is says-

"I knocked out the two pins holding the unit to the receiver and installed a favorite Timney trigger from one of my Model 700s, and it worked just fine."

The Springfield web site says this:

"Remington® 700 Pattern Trigger
Optimized for the .22 caliber action, the Model 700 pattern trigger is factory set at 4.5 lbs. The adjustable trigger can be tuned to your preference and delivers a crisp, clean break. Furthermore, the action is designed to accept many aftermarket 700 pattern triggers for enhanced customization."

The manual says the trigger is factory set at 4.0. The trigger can be adjusted from 4.0 to 5.5 lbs. I would like to reduce trigger pull below 4.0.
