Is there a trigger pull gauge that measures the 1-3 oz range in 0.1 oz increments?

[Cassidy]

Is there available on the market a reliable, accurate trigger pull gauge that measures in the 1-3 oz or so range in 0.1 oz increments. I'm having difficulty finding one with a trigger pull accessory designed for determining trigger pull force.

You can find these on eBay. Measures in grams which can easily be converted to ounces.

The above is also marketed by Centra. I have one and find it fairly consistent.

maybe Pete Fiori will chime in. He sells that product line.

This is exactly what I have, 28.35 grains is 1 oz I think (double check that).

Thank you! I've got one of those used 100 gram Dynamometers coming from Ebay with an ETA of Friday (5Apr2024). I'm thinking about how to check/confirm its accuracy in the 1.5 to 3 oz range using some Ohaus 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 gram brass weight standards I have. Any thoughts about how to do this?

Itty bitty zip lock bag, string, and the weights.
(weigh the bag and string).
Hang, keep lever perpendicular to local graivity.
OR press the lever on a scale.

Place the weight in a small plastic bag and gently lift it up.

7000 grains in a pound 7000/16= 437.5 grains per oz.

I think he meant grams. I don’t know anyone measuring trigger pull in grains.

I have a gram tension gauge like pictured above but I find that I just set them as light as they will go and not slam fire. A Bix will go to about an oz sometimes less.

Water is a pretty consistent weight per volume. A plastic 100ml graduated cup is like a buck, get the tare weight for it and whatever hanger you use on the trigger, plus whatever volume of water.

I compared the Dynamometer and Lyman's trigger pull gauge. Got the following results with multiple pulls. Dynamometer: 3.3, 3.4, 3.3, 3.5, 3.3 ounces; mean 3.36, range 3.3-3.5. Lyman's trigger pull gauge: 2.6, 2.8, 3.2, 3.1, 2.3, 4.9 ounces; mean 3.2, range 2.3-4.9. Thought you might be interested.
