How to adjust an old Remington 700 trigger?

The steps for adjusting an old Remington 700 trigger are as follows:

1. Remove the action from the stock.
2. Open the bolt and remove the striker assembly and firing pin.
3. On the left side of the receiver, remove the two screws that hold the sear spring in place.
4. Carefully ease out the sear spring and disconnector spring, noting their positions so they can be replaced in the same way later on.
5. With a screwdriver, turn the adjustment screw on top of the trigger until it bottoms out lightly against the trigger shoe (do not overtighten).
6. Insert a .22 caliber bullet into the bolt raceway and cock the trigger.
7. The trigger should now release when you pull it slowly and evenly. If it doesn’t, turn the adjustment screw another quarter-turn and try again.
8. Once the trigger is adjusted, reassemble the action and reinstall it in the stock.
