Can someone explain what is adjustable on a Tubb T7T trigger?

I'm still day dreaming about building a rifle. I've got about 2/3 of the funds saved up for the project (assuming no major breakdowns drain me back to $0). The rifle will be used for plinking paper and steel at 400-500 yds at my local range, and whacking Pdogs out west. Trying to make those trips and annual thing, but didn't make it this year due to scheduling conflicts. Anyway, the T7T is one of the triggers I'm considering for this rifle. Looking at Tubb's video, it looks like the trigger only has 2 adjustments, but he showed one that had a very short 2nd stage and a light pull, and another example/setup that had a heavier pull and significantly more sear engagement. Ideally, I'd probably want a two stage trigger with a total pull weight in the #1.5-#2.5 range, with the 2nd stage being about 8oz heavier, but I'd want a pretty short 2nd stage and NO over travel. In his video, the short, light trigger setup looked like it moved the way I'd want it to move, but since I'll be walking across the prairie with it, I'd like the weight to be heavier. Can this trigger be set up this way?

Thanks,
Mark
 
The instructions for theT7T trigger are attached.

I have this trigger on my HP Silhouette rifle. While I like it quite a bit because it fits my needs better than any other trigger I know about, it definitely has not been without its problems.

Unless they've made some improvements in the last two years, be prepared to deal with drifting settings. I had the second stage completely disappear on me during Nationals last year. I ended up having to add a shim to the second stage rocker assembly as well as some judicious blue Loc-Tite to specific screws to get it to behave.

Best of luck.

Good to know. I read some reviews that said the same thing, but they were dated from when it was relatively new to the market.
