Interesting in how things change and back the day all if not most flintlocks to be able put food on the table or for sale had set triggers. Kind of reminds of Truck Drivers now days and only about 1 in 10 can actually manually shift transmission through the gears and rest now use automatic transmissions. When I first started out I had two sticks one for the main and the other one for the axillary. I can still use both set triggers for hunting and two sticks in a truck.

I too hunt with set triggers.  I have encountered no issues with using them.  Just takes a different mindset and approach.  I guess I prefer single set for hunting, just  one less to manipulate.

I have been hunting here in Germany for more than 35 years now. While it is true that many old German rifles are equipped with set-triggers that is not the case today. In fact most of the new rifles I have seen over those 35+ years have had single triggers. Many Mauser type rifles (98 mil actions) rebuilt since WWII have been fitted with double set triggers but often the gunsmith did not open up the trigger guard to make room for a gloved finger, in fact in many cases there is hardly room for the trigger finger. I once owned a Mauser 66 Stutzen in 6.5X57 that oddly (for it's vintage) had a single trigger. That rifle leads me to believe the shift to single triggers on German hunting rifles was happening in the 1970's/1980's.

That said, on my original Mauser sporting rifles (not converted military guns) with double-set trigger I like them to be at about 2lbs. The single shots I hunt with all have single triggers and I like those at about 4lbs.
