When working on triggers ..... all competitors at National and International events have to have theirs make weight ... a common practice is to give yourself 10% wiggle room should there be a discrepancy in your scale ... their weights, ..........and to compensate for the break-in period of the springs/wear points in the trigger linkage.

Most new parts will wear in a little and the springs will get tired after extensive use ... that is why they make more. If you push the limits, you may find yourself over the edge at the wrong moment....

When it come to actually using it ... an extra 4-8 ounces won't even be noticed if you have a clean break.
