proper adjusting of remingtons x-mark pro trigger

[Fixit]

ive done some reading/google'n on how to adjust the trigger, alot of the info is for the old style trigger.

id like to PROPERLY set the overtravel, sear timing and pull weight... ive lowered the pull weight but find its somewhat inconsistant.

it's a good trigger and if you have you hand grown properly, you can adjust this trigger in a very reasonable way

the same way as an old trigger, nothing from a rocket science

...and if you have you hand grown properly...

huh?

ive lowered the trigger pull weight, id just like to adjust the other two to match the lower weight, or is that not required?

all 3 adjustments have to be made....

IIRC all you have to do is turn one screw, did it on my sendero, worked fine with no loss

Derek__Erickson, i did the same for my 700p.

they are designed to change the pull weight by backing out the pull weight screw with no other adjustment. just make sure to test the trigger after by slamming the bolt closed 10 times, holding the rifle by the barrel and bounding it from a height of 6 - 8 inches 10 times, and setting it to safe, pulling the trigger hard ( remember to release the trigger ) and then setting it to fire. if the pin drops on any of these, increase the weight.

Wanted to adjust mine on my 700 SPS varmint, ended up taking it to a gun smith lol. Good luck to those who know how to adjust them!
