Jewell trigger adjustment???

[bglimpse]

I just received a used FN SPR .308 with the Jewell trigger installed. I hve read that the allen head screw on the trigger shoe is the pull weight adjustment. It is set at 1lb and I would like to increase it to 2lbs. How many turns in on the little screw? I know these are good triggers, but are they safe at 1lb if the gun is bumped,etc?

Thanks

I have a couple and the one on my Finnfire is safe at 1.5 ounces. The spring in a 1-pound trigger should be good for a range of 1/2 to 3.5 pounds, so about halfway or so should get you to 2 pounds.

Here's the manual.
