The trigger of my .500 Linebaugh is right at 2 lbs 6 oz and I love it.

2.5 to 3 lb's on hunting guns (rifles and pistols) , 1 - 1.5 for target work (IHMSA).

I am very use to light triggers now, even when hunting.
On a semi-auto or revolver I get them as light as they will go and still be safe.

Absolutely no creep, short overtravel, and a weight of pull around 3 lbs. Target only guns, around 2 lbs.

2 lbs is a good overall weight for hunting/target for me on my single shots. my G2 model contender and my xp is lighter yet, but 2lbs is what it takes to completely satisfy me.

I agree with 500WE Taking out the creep makes a big difference and at 3 lbs works great for me.

I set my Encore and Striker at 2.5 pounds. That is decent for hunting.

2 pounds on my guns, once you do one you have to do them all. when you get used to a light pull there is no going back.
