Polish

gumpokc, I did completely break it down when I did the trigger/action job to begin with. I did at least get the action parts smooth, if not mirror polished. I did shorten the sear engagement surface to remove creep. The bore cleaner treatment on the sear/hammer notch was just the final smoothing of that surface. I didn't want to actually stone or polish that surface for fear of changing the angle of that engagement surface and create an unsafe situation.

Actually, I did later remove one turn from the the trigger plunger spring (trigger return spring). That lowered the the trigger pull to right at 2 lbs. or just a hair over. It is smooth and creep free now with very little pre-travel and no over travel at all. I don't want it any lighter than 2 lbs. It's about perfect for me now. I think I'll quit while I'm ahead. Thanks for the suggestions though.

Rev
