Wife's Savage 10 action from J&E started off at about 1.5 to 2 lbs. Adjusted trigger spring as low as it would go and got to about 1 pound.
Installed springs from Target accutrigger, cleaned up burrs on trigger and sear sides, shimmed trigger, and got 10 to 14 oz.
Cut 1.5 to 2 turns off Blade spring, blade force went from 8oz to about 3.5, TOTAL force to about 7oz.
Too low to use my spring scale.
Average of 10 pulls was 7.2oz. This was with the original trigger, sear, but the new ORANGE Blade.
I think blade force needs to be 50% or so of total force for it to be a "Safety" blade.
Coming from an AR she was OK with the 2 pounds, Happy with the 12oz, REALLY liked the 7oz.
Got NO false trips.
