Be careful following that diagram to the letter. I find that it is a bit too much. I'll file, stone and polish, but not take quite as much material. Also a lighter spring helps with pull weight. The way I do them leaves more sear engagement, which makes it safer than the diagram shown. I shoot for a 2.5 pound pull weight, with very minimal creep. After polishing the sear engagement it is also very smooth. I don't know how many guys actually have the proper tools to measure the notch depth. I don't take as much off the trigger or sear, so be warned.. Always test afterwards too. I've seen some guys take too much and you can actually push the cocking piece forward with your thumb.. You definitely don't want that, as that is an unsafe condition. If you don't feel confident in doing it right, take it to a smith.
