I replaced one of my Hubers with one of these probably about 2 years ago. its a pretty good trigger, it breaks clean and is easy to adjust. The only thing I liked better about the Huber is the longer travel of the first stage. Fast forward to less than a year ago and i picked up another one. This one had kind of a strange feeling creep in the second stage. Once I found the pressure it took to take up the creep I could work the trigger back and forth across it. I messed around with the adjust cents, but the only way I could find to make the problem seem less was increase pull weight. I don't think this was any kind of fix, it just helped cover the problem because it was harder to feel with the heavier pull weight. What I ended up figuring out was that all the over-travel had been taken out of the trigger. I moved the first and second stage pull weights back down, gave the trigger some over-travel and success. No creep, nice crisp light break, and it wont drop the firing pin when I bang the butt stock on the ground.
 
call up Geissele - they will take a look at it. had both my s700 and a ssa-e not up to expectations (one was new, one was bought on the second hand mkt) - they fixed both with no cost.
 
I am not sure exactly what the weights are now, but they are very close to the factory setting. I have never messed with the other trigger, and they feel very close to the same.
