I shot Service Rifle for many years. 80's to 2000. Was the Service Trigger pull limit 4 lbs, I am sure it was. I understand it is now 4.5 pounds. When did it change ?

If you are referring to Service Rifle Match rules, you'll need to find someone familiar with them. I can't help you there, sorry.

The trigger pull weight range acceptable for service rifles is in the various military TMs (shop manuals) along with the approved method(s) for testing them.

Service rifle trigger weight

The Service Rifle trigger weight has been 4.5 pounds since the National Match M1 rifles were introduced. The M14 National Match and AR 15 Naional Match rifles also are required to use this weight. I have been shooting Service Rifle since 1978 and can attest to this as fact.
