I love the crisp clean breaking accu trigger but i want to make it lighter. I lightened it as low as I can with the screw adjustment and its at a nice 2 lbs 15 oz trigger but I'm use to a 3/4- 1 1/2 lbs range. How does a man go about getting the accu trigger even lighter or can it even be done? Do I have to put a aftermarket trigger on it to get it this light or do they make aftermarket triggers for the accu trigger models? Any help or info will very helpful! I hopeing that someone else on here has had it done before and someone can tell me how or what they did! Thanks alot

Well do you have a Dremel Tool ?
Let me first say I did this to a new 93R17 with an Accu Trigger, and it works better then my SSS Comp, trigger on my 10 FCP-K .308 !!
All I did was cut 1/8” off the top thickness of the trigger tang (the portion of the trigger that the adjustment spring threads though) and I also removed the Accu Trigger blade and spring. It is a quick and very easy mod, and the trigger pull is very light and crisp !!
And I have had “0” slam fires.

What model rifle do you have? There is more than one accu-trigger type

Take spring off, cut a coil off of it, rebend the end of the spring to fit in the hole in the action. Or, you can go about getting the lighter springs for the target accutriggers.

+1 Clip off a couple loops then stretch it back to its original length. This will knock off a ??? ounces but I wouldn't do it to many times because it most likely will become unsafe at some point. I have done this with a 22lr trigger with great success but not with an Accu trigger.
