Good work so far! Can't wait to see the finished product! I'll be watching this one!

I have put in three DSTs, both had the sear bars contact the sear directly above the adjustment screw. My kibler kit was the last one and Jim had his trigger inlet shaped to have the trigger bars intersect the sear exactly like I have done it in the past.
I just found this, it shows exactly the position I install set triggers.

Parnell:
Ah, super! Many thanks, Eric. Keep you posted. Thanks for the interest, guys.
Parnell:
Well, the trigger is coming together. I've had to carefully file a significant amount from the set trigger to clear the sear and initiate the lock. I didn't expect that much to have to come off! But, it is beginning to catch and should come together well. I read that TOW instruction about 20 times, so far. It is making sense to me as I move through it. It's amazing how I didn't understand the trigger in the beginning, at all! I'll take some pictures later to update. I'm glad I'm doing this though, makes me really appreciate the fine tuning of a lock and trigger.
Parnell:
I’ve picked this project back up after finishing a couple bows for the nephews and taking care of some other things.
I’ve got the main bolt done and “buttoned up” the lock. So far, so good.
On to the butt plate. I’ve been considering trigger pull distance. 14-14.5” feels correct on a yard stick...so pretty standard, I suppose. Any thoughts on this? I imagine it is an individual choice.
