I have a factory remington 700 (tactical XCR) that comes standard with the 40x trigger. There is some creep, well alot, and the trigger came from the factory at 3.5 to 3.75.

I am looking to take the creep out of the trigger. you can pull on trigger and it will move 1/8 inch and stop the you have a crisp no creep pull to set the gun off. Some times you dont get the hitch. It makes it hard for me to accurately shoot this gun.

I am also wanting to take this down to 2 pound pull. All my varmint rigs are set at this pull.... I am very very use to this weight.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
