That's why I like the 80% lowers and hand reworked mil-spec single stage triggers. Through a little trial and error I've been able to take a mil-spec trigger and get it down to 3.5 to 4 pound very smooth and crisp pull. I've gone a little to far with one and had to toss it as it was to easy to double tap it got so light. I screwed up a disconnector in a mini 14 by grinding a little to much off trying to change the timing a little but thank God I'm a good TIG welder. I just added a little back and was back in business. I'm self taught and am having a good time in retirement with my fairly new hobby. Thank God for Youtube. I have another Odin 20" barrel but I'm going to segregate the brass from it and this one as the 20" barrel was advertised as a 6.5 LBC by Odin. I'm going to load some new brass to see how it fire-forms and compare each chamber to see if there is how much difference there is in the brass.
I hear ya... drenching over here too...
