Don't know why I've never seen anything about this before, but on the rare occasions that I want to measure trigger pull I bend a piece of thick wire to fit on the trigger and long enough to extend below the gun. The other end of the wire holds a plastic sandwich bag and I start filling it with boolits. I slowly and smoothly lift the gun untill the bag clears the floor. When one more boolit will trip the trigger I can count the boolits, multiply it out and divide by 7000 to get the weight in pounds.

Neat trick! I assume you weigh the wire rod also.
