Remington 700 Trigger

I have a new model 700 Rem. I didn't like the trigger, and attempted to put a new older Timmney trigger into my new 700, and ran into problems installing it. Is the older Timmney triggers different on installing then the new ones. I don't know if the older Timney trigger is only for older Rem. 700 models. Is there anything different on the newer Rem. 700's then the older 700's as far as installing a Timney trigger.
Thanks

The rifle would be used for deer hunting in northern Minnesota where I don't think cold weather, gloves and a light trigger are a good combination...
Adjusting most 'adjustable' triggers is not difficult but the balance necessary for a proper, SAFE trigger needs to be known and done through experience. A qualitfied gunsmith should be able to handle this for a small fee and time frame. Just bear in mind that this time of the year most gunsmiths are fixing the deer hunting rifles...
Best.
If I do this, I will have an experienced gunsmith do the actual work...
Since the 721/722 came out (1950 or so).

Remember this is the subject of a recall and caution must be exercised when making the adjustment...
