Ok. I've been convinced to show some love for the 5109 trigger that came on my new 1712. Now the question is how to adjust it.
The Anschutz manual is really opaque on this. They show a picture of a single-stage trigger, with the various screws numbered, and then move to a match trigger with the screws numbered. Nowhere is there a picture of the 5109 trigger detailed with the screws identified.
I put a trigger gauge on it and found that it took about 16 oz. to get through the first stage, and another 14-15 oz. to get the 2nd stage to break. I'd like to lighten both stages, but I guess that, if only one can be lightened, it should be the 2nd-stage.
Can anyone point me to some detailed adjustment instructions for the 5109? I'm a little leery about attempting this on my own, but, if I had good instructions, I might attempt it.
Apologies for my ignorance (and timidity) on this.
