Any one try this? Found it after I did mine with shim stock. Almost zero creep, 5lb pull. I've put it through lots of testing, no problems, lots of fiddling with to get it right but it was something to do on a rainy day.

As long as you don't try and tweak it too low on weight or too low on creep - alterations as this to a military design trigger work okay.

Never like light triggers 2.5 to 3 lb is good, 5 to 6 old military is ok with me. Triggrr creep drive me crazy.
 
I don't like alterations which eliminate the intial stage of the two stage trigger but some dislike the two stage trigger enough that any trade-offs are acceptable. To me, if you want a single stage trigger, you should go to an over-riding sear type like a Timney or Dayton-Traister. These allow you to minimize sear/trigger engagement while maintaining full contact between the sear and cocking piece.

If all my guns were two stage triggers I would probably leave it. But had a close call after shooting the 8x57 then switched to my 300wsm, my mind was thinking two stage and the gun wasn't.
 
I use steel shim & a softer spring.
I glue 1 shim to reduce the sear/striker surface engagement & 1 to reduce over travel.
This way you don't alter the gun.
I stone the striker & the sear gently to get a clean break.
