it takes a small wrench (8MM I think) and a small screwdriver...it's not hard to do...but you need the tools.

Also it's best if you have two of those wrenches.

It's adjustable for pounds of pull and after travel

Creep takes a gunsmith to fix.

For what it's worth, it's a cheap quick thing for a gunsmith to do, if you don't want to mess with it yourself.

I just had the trigger adjusted on my Model 70 Ultimate Shadow. He wase able to get it down to 2.75 lbs. Cost me $35. I would rather pay a smith to do it for $35 than screw something up and have to pay him twice that much to fix it.
