There is a circular indention in the trigger area that holds the spring in place. 15 minutes is all it took me and both scopes were still on target after I was finished.


I have slammed the guns butt first on the floor and very forcibly hit them on all sides to check for any inadvertant firing and have had no issues. The only thing I would be careful of is cutting too much of that spring. When I did my first one on my 22-250 I cut 1 1/2 and I guess some would really like the reduced pull but it was just a bit too light for me. I don't have a scale but I would guess in between 2-3 pounds. On my Brother's I kept the cut to 1 coil and it cut the perceived weight of the pull in half. That spring must be an inch long although I've never had it out all of the way to measure it. Trimming just a slight bit will make a huge difference.


My first mod to an Edge would be a trigger job however you want to do it. 



We took 1 coil off all ours and they work fine after plenty of shooting, took 15 minutes as poster says. Feels like a good aftermarket trigger now on all 3 of them. Have no idea what these other guys had to do so many mods, no slop left to right in ours, maybe some were made different.
