Hello, this looks like a great forum! I aguired this rifle several years ago and am ready to do some modifying. It is a Rmington 721 long action chambered in .308. I knew the man who originally barreled this action and someone put a lot of work in it. An Anschutz 54(64)? stock fully bedded and a 5018? trigger. I am proud to say that I paid less for it than the Super Sniper scope and badger Ord. mounts/rings that came with it. However, it has no safety and the trigger was set to single stage with maybe 5 ozs.(guessing) I plan on using this rifle for some benchrest but more of a bipod-style shooting rifle. As pictured, I have adjusted the trigger to its limits following instructions found on David Tubbs website. However, I am obviously misunderstanding a couple points. I do have a definite second stage now and the anschutzs sear does reset if you let off before break. However it is VERY light and my weight spring is at max adjustment. Also, the sear engagement screw seems to work counter to the instructions on Tubbs website. Do I have a different trigger? I think that some 5022 springs would work better but do they make heavier? I can rig up a water trigger gauge but am more concerned about a half weight "feel" to my m1a and 1911
