new sks with rough trigger action - help!

Is there anything I can do to smoothen up my new SKS's trigger? Its pretty brutal. I've got a few hundred rounds through it now and its still the same. Any ideas or are they all like that?

Polish the side walls of the sear and also on the trigger guard polish the side rail's and grease them. By doing this and the double spring cut method can give you a 5 to 7 pound trigger pull.
