Semi that is exactly what I mean/do with my T/C Renegade and Hawkens. The set trigger is never engaged until I am aiming at a specified target. Once set and I am committed to firing and on target is when my finger comes in contact with the firing trigger. This trigger as set very light. I have yet to have a rifle fire without my wanting it to. If for some reason I decide not to fire my off hand moves back to the hammer and maintain complete control of it as I release the trigger and lower it to 1/2 c0ck. If a flinter I first flip open the frizzen before lowering the hammer.

Well, my muzzle loader has the factory trigger, and while I have no idea what the pull weight is since I've not had it measured, it is way to heavy for me. That said, I don't use them enough to have a trigger job done on them.
On my main hunting rifle, I have the trigger set at 2.5lbs which I feel is safe, but still decently light.
That said, I normally prefer a much lighter trigger around 1lbs, but my current hunting rifle isn't that light.
