I will take a lot of pictures, and try to borrow a trigger pull scale. I'll definitely take some side by side comparison pics. I look forward to trying it though.

Quick question; after the trigger is ready to go, should I Loctite the action screws? With that in mind, how tight do you normally get yours? I've never paid attention to things like this before, but this rifle needs to be as accurate as possible. I hope to prove a pencil barrel Ruger, can make accurate groups at 500 and beyond.
