    Yup - they do have the grub screw for this too but Ruger say this will get you to about 3.5 lb in mine it just got me to a little over 4 completely out. I like a light trigger on mine (so its similar to my target .22Lr and 7mm big girl) and more importantly for me I wanted to eliminate the creep I was getting in the pull - so did both at the same time. We err'd on the side of conservatism and went with the 1 turn of the spring off rather than 1.75 which some advocate on the forums. I'm now trying this for the next few months then I'll decide if it needs more. The screw adjust is great because I know I can easily wind some more weight back on.

    All comes down to personal preference guys just wanted to let you know what was possible out there - relatively easily..
