The trigger makes no difference in the end, look at some of the world's greatest snipers, did they have their triggers customized? no, trigger setting is just another unneccesary accomodation people pay money for.

I guarantee their are no snipers in the real world using a rifle with a 6 pound, scratchy, gritty, lawyer trigger. Heck, even The sharp shooter at our Sheriff's department has a 308 with a 1 1/2 pound trigger that feels glass smooth.

A good trigger is something you definitely want if accuracy is your main goal. Most hunting rifles, that won't be shot at longs distances are fine as they are.

I have had three Ruger rifles. I had two of them worked on. They were not lowered too much, but mainly smoothed out a bit. I don't like a gritty trigger with lots of creep. If it is around 4-5 pounds, and breaks cleanly, I am a happy camper.JMHO of course.
