Sounds like whats known as a "lawyer trigger"
That "trigger weight" screw is the trigger return spring adjustment. I want to caution you about adjusting it. If you leave the trigger spring "flat" it can be an accident waiting to happen. A much better way to do it is to replace the spring with a lighter wire at least .043 diameter and leave a nice arch in it. This will make some improvement but not like being able to adjust the sear along with the spring replacement.
They are getting harder to find since the accutrigger has come along, but a factory trigger with the adjustable sear would make a big difference. Lots of good aftermarket available as well.
Ah ok. Yeah I didn't mess with that I just changed the overtravel adjustment and the safety adjustment. I'm going to look for some wire to lighten it up. Plan to eventually replace it. Seems like the rifle Basix trigger is really well liked.
