XR-100 trigger

How do you adjust the trigger on a XR-100? I think it has something to do with a little screw by where the botton is to remove the bolt.

Flip the rifle over and look by the trigger guard. After adjusting the trigger, close the bolt and bounce the rifle on the butt pad to see if it goes off from bumping. If so, back off the adjustment a little.

For targets, it's never too light. For hunting, three pounds ought to be about right.
