[QUOTE="bluedog69, post: 2234812, member: 118823"] So I have read through my daughters "owners manual" for her newer 700 BDL. This one has the screw that is in the trigger itself. This thing was set on 7 lbs factory. I can adjust the screw in the trigger and it goes down to 5 lbs. Take the screw completely out 5 lbs. I have tried watching youtube videos and that gets frustrating. 1) Do both pins drive the same direction to remove the trigger? I have seen several that drive both of the same direction which is what I did. Other videos say drive the front pin L to R and the back R to L or vice versa even. Pretty sure I replaced them exactly as they came out. 2) After researching to see if I can adjust the trigger on down to 3 lbs I am left shaking my head. Some say the front screw sets spring tension. Others say that the back screw adjusts spring tension. 3) Have most people really threw their Remington triggers away and replaced them with after market? I will probably just leave it set at the five pounds it is on and see if it helped tighten groups up any, Frustrating!!! My buddy said he takes all the screws through the trigger plum out and throws them away? Does it need to still be in there? If it was my rifle I wouldn't be as concerned, but since this is my daughters rifle..... [/QUOTE]
