TomsBull: There are several mods that can be employed to improve the MN trigger.
The end result is a much improved trigger that is conducive to accurate shooting, even if its not a crisp break like your Winchester Model 70. - CW
- You can remove metal from the center of the spring/sear, making it slightly narrower and thinner. Go easy, use trial and error. When you get to about 2.5# of pull, stop.
- You should polish the spring/sear where it contacts the trigger, make it mirror bright. Do the same to the corresponding contact surface inside the trigger, using a thin strip of fine emery cloth.
- If you can find a Finn-modified trigger, try installing that. They have two little pins inside the trigger that provide a genuine two-stage letoff, very clever those Finns.
