I have really bad trigger creep in the trigger I just got. I've adjusted it a dozen time and still does it. When the firing pin is cock the trigger can wiggle back and forth before it breaks. Any ideas? I posted the link to the video above.

Check out how to tune a remmy trigger at Quarterbore Homepage. Easy peasy. Then take a little of your wife's finger nail polish and put a small dot on the screws to lock them in place.

I already did that. Still creep in the trigger. I feel like the trigger is missing a part. On the xmark there is a spring that returns the trigger to the proper position to the sear each time but not on this older style one. The trigger just wobbles back and forth when the bolt is open. Make sense?

Well sure as shit. Took it apart and it was missing a spring. Took one out of the xmark and it shoots like a dream now.

Knock out the two trigger pins and replace with a jewel.

Good job P.dx, nothing wrong with rocking an old style remmy. I tuned one up and took it to Jon Beanland with my parts. While we were talking he checked it and said that he wouldn't mess with it, he thought it felt really good. 2.2# glass rod every time. No regrets here.
