	Need some help with a new project rifle? A Remington rolling block #1 I think, with a newly installed Douglas barrel chambered in 40/65W, it has a C. Sharps arms long range rear sight and Lyman #17 on the front. The barrel was fitted correctly and rifle functions and fires very well. Now to the part where I need help, it has a 20lb+ trigger pull , does anyone know of a book or manual that tells or shows how to do the trigger reduction on a rolling block correctly? If instructions are not available, is there a gunsmith anyone can recommend in the southeast PA area that works on rolling blocks & if not local, then one that will do a professional trigger job in the USA, I’m not looking for 2lb trigger pull just one that is smooth and manageable? Thanks for your help in advance, MIKE-T

	ssdave, Thank you so much for your help, does not sound at all difficult and will give it a try & let you know how successful the project goes! Just may have to take you up on the offer to purchase one of your spring's though, do not know if I can find my music wire supply in the new garage, will contact you later if my search is unsuccessful! This rolling block is the first CF large frame one that I have owned, just hate to hack away at something with out some prior knowledge on the subject! Thanks again, MIKE-T

	I put one of Dave's springs in my Hepburn, and my Roller. The Hepburn went from about 10 lbs. to 2 lbs., and the Roller went from 13 lbs. to about 2.5 lbs. Thanks Dave!

	ssdave & Gents, here is my first try at uploading a photo the site, so if all works a photo of the rolling block will appear! Thanks again ssdave!

	Hello, SSDave, Can you send me info so I can purchase a few of those springs. A buddy and I have a RB & Hepburn project. I would like to start with your springs before we do anything with the triggers. Thanks Jesse
