Still not truly content with the trigger work I have done to the Marlin 990 I found the cause of my dissatisfaction.
It's requirement for a disconnector system means in a sense it can feel like a three stage trigger which is frustrating.
There is no creep from the seer at all, just this annoying third movement between trigger 1st stage and the seer breaking.
After much studying I decided to remove the trigger 1st stage by adding an adjustable M4 grub screw to act immediately on the disconecter.
After some trial and error I have adjusted the grub screw so it just allows the disconnector to align with the seer when the bolt returns to battery.
Now I have a two stage trigger all be it a short first stage but now when it stops I know any more pressure will break the seer and no other annoying movement.
Just need a field test to confirm it is a safe and reliable modification.

Dang Nath...that's good thinking with the set screw. You'd fit in real good here in the states........there's all kinds of stuff we could put you to work with.

Good job Nath!
Don't worry Nath. Being armed, and that handy, they all fear you.

Im gonna pass this on the the guys at the shop, they clean and fix quite a few. BTW, ive lost the bidding war on 5 bp rifles and pistols. Latest one was Tradition .32 cal Crockett pistol. Oh well, todd/3leg
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres
