What is the ideal pull weight for the front trigger on a CVA double trigger? Do you want it as lite as posible or is there a point where the pull becomes too lite? Also is there a curtain distance you want the trigger to move when you pull it to improve accuracy and minimize flinching?
 
To light and you risk an accidental discharge or sear damage...."trust me I know"...

Some guys think triggers need to be as light as possible.....But really you just need a nice comfortable clean repeatable break....
 
It's always an individual choice/preference,,
Yes, you can go too lite.
I prefer mine pretty darn light for paper target work,, heavier for hunting.
 
A clean breaking trigger is always more important than the actual breaking weight, with in reason.
On a rifle or for that matter even a hand gun an even clean braking 3 pound pull will be preferred to a creeping 1 pound let off.
 
Mostly a matter of preference as far as the pull force, but to me, trying to shoot a gun accurately with a heavy trigger pull is like trying to cut with a dull knife. A light crisp trigger provides precision.
