Re: EDM Arms XM408 trigger is crap!
Really can't say what you're doing wrong, if anything. You might just have a trigger that is determined to be shitty no matter what. Happens. I think your idea of replacing the trigger is a good one but that doesn't necessarily mean with a Jewell. Don't get me wrong, I have jewell triggers in some guns and they are excellent, but, its an endless debate. Others I have are gunsmithed old school 700's and they are great as well. I do like having a lighter and crisp trigger pull on the 408 though given its slightly greater recoil and pressure wave. Waiting around on a heavy trigger pull given what you know is about to come is not conducive to good shooting, imho. Good luck!
