Anyone heard of the trigger manufacturers posting standard deviation of their trigger pull force or where such information can be found? Would be interesting to see the variation of force causing the trigger to break, and especially if the variation changes depending on where you set the trigger pull weight.

To clarify, if you took a trigger force measuring instrument that had zero error and measured the pull force 100 times, what would be the min max and standard deviation? Just wondering what the limit of dry firing for the purpose of narrowing the window of the surprise break would be, and if its humanly possible to reach that limit, or whether its easy to reach that limit and after a certain point you're wasting your time trying to "know" your trigger any better since beyond that you have no further control of the timing.
 
I think it’s safe to say that any quality trigger will have a consistent enough break that you will never be able to feel the difference from one shot to the next. Therefore measuring such a thing would be an exercise in futility.

Huber gives you a chart of the trigger that you get, but that is the only one I am aware of.
