What is a 'good' trigger pull?

Discussions like this probably don't interest a lot of folks, but, I find it interesting. Michael, I looked up the Lyman guage....neat! I need to go out and dig out some old fired .30 and 9mm shells and check my Lugers. Truth is, I haven't fired them in a long time. I'm loathe to dry fire any gun....especially the Luger......not much meat left on the face of the breachblock. I'm anxious to actually fire some 'real' rounds through my creation, but still not sure of the proper mainspring tension. My 'plan' is to start with some real light blackpowder loads and go from there. Advantage I have is if I break something, I just remake the part. I imagine if I actually owned an original.........I'd sit down and cry if I broke something.
