LP500 trigger assembly - how to adjust overtravel?

[javaduke]

I got a brand new LP500 Expert with mechanical trigger and one issue that I immediately noticed is that it has a significant over travel out of the box. On my LP400 there's a screw that controls it and I found the same screw on LP500, but - it looks like when the shot is released, the whole trigger assembly on LP500 pivots slightly and there seems to be no screw to control that. Is it supposed to be this way? I couldn't find anything online that explains how the LP500 mechanical trigger works.

I just helped an athlete with this at Camp Perry.
Once you take the grip off and watch the pieces move, it is quite clear which screw to turn (#2, CW).
Note the terminology in the manual may be different than what you are used to.

Bob, actually it was me, I appreciate your help but unfortunately I'm still confused. I took my LP400 and compared it to the new LP500. They look almost identical and I found the screw that adjusts the over travel. The problem is that in LP500 the whole assembly also rotates when the shot is released, and the over travel screw doesn't control the rotation at all. I'm wondering if what I have is a different version of the trigger.
