Tech Definition: "single action" vs. "single stage

I have a rifle with double-set triggers.  Pulling the front trigger will not trip the sear unless set and released.  There is a name for these type of triggers but I cannot remember the technical term.

Help please?

Which particular rifle and triggers are you referring to?

Joe beat me to it. I was going to say single lever, double set as opposed to double lever, double set.

Happen to have a Winchester SST I shoot a lot.  Set, it's excellent--not as delicate as a DST, of course, but light and quite reliable.  But pulling it unset, to lower the hammer, for ex., almost requires two fingers on the trigger.
