I called about one last week and they said they might have some in a couple of weeks.  Maybe if more of us call, they might get more motivated

I have and did not care for it. I use davis no. 6 and 4 quite a lot and recomend them.

Stan Hollenbaugh makes a fine single set, double action trigger that I have used on acouple of guns. Works very well.    http://www.stanhollenbaughgunsmith.com/  717 259 9271

The S.H. single set trigger can be used either as a single
stage trigger or set.
It is adjustable for both setting pressure & release
pressure when set & no trigger creep. The lock must
have a sear release pressure of five (5) pounds or less.
Warranter against defective parts or workmanship as
long as not altered.
Comes with installation instructions. I am told that it's the
best one available!
 $65.00 plus shipping & ins.

Which brings me to another question then, Tim. How do I measure or know the sear release pressure?

[Pete G.]

The sudden break when the trigger knuckles over and jumps to the rear really takes a lot of getting used to. I couldn't do it and found myself jerking the trigger and/or flinching because I was concentrating (more like anticipating) more on the trigger than the sight picture.

Using one of these on my .40cal. rifle now. You are right about
getting used to the sudden brake when it breaks over. I did a lot of
adjusting and finally settled on a very light pull and when it breaks
I don't seem to notice the jump anymore. It is set so that when I can feel
the trigger it takes but a touch for it to go. You better make sure you're on target!!

Finding the release pressure just takes shooting it a lot. I found dry firing without
the hammer being cocked help a bunch. A very small movement in the screw means
a world of difference in the pressure. Sometimes moved it only half of the width of the screw
driver blade. Pratice--practice--pratice!!

Mine is a Davis but would like to try one of Hollenbaugh's. Have a number?

well you can hold the cocked the lock in a vise upside down and use a fish scale to pull down on the sear bar and watch the indicator to see where it is when the sear releases??  Or turn it over and pull up
