Given the fact that my preferred method of shooting whitetails is on the ground stalking through sometimes very heavy vegetation I feel more comfortable in the 3# range.
I'll take a clean crisp 5# trigger over a mushy, indistinct 2# every day.
Funny you mention this--the trigger on my new American also has almost zero travel before breaking and/or overtravel--my feeling is that the "feel" is heavier than it actually is.
