1-1/12 lbs is fine for bench work, but I personally want 3 lbs. for my deer rifles. Cold figers and gloves can cause problems wit a super-sensitive trigger.

2.5-3# is perfect for Big game IMHO

< 1# for varmint rifles

3 lbs is about as low as I want to go on a hunting rifle.

It depends....AND kinda reflects an American bias towards one set triggers....

Warm weather prairie dog rifle, 2 pounds.
Cold weather (cold fingers)big game rifles, 3.5 pounds.

Then there are my two CZ 550 Safari Magnums with the set triggers
** "Regular" =3.5 pounds
** "Set" = 1.0 pound (real handy at the range when dialing in a scope), just think "shoot" and it goes off, a nice nice option.

Ilike BG rifles around 3.0lbs due to gloves for colder weather.
