I finally got hold of a trigger pull test gauge (Birchwood Casey manual version) and tested the single action trigger pull on both of my Rhinos;
Gold 6" - 5lb (average over 8 tests), results varied from a +/- 1/4lb either side of 5lb.
Charging Rhino 5" - 3½lb (average over 4 tests), results were a consistent 3½lb for all four tests.
So the results backed up my personal opinion, it lightened the SA trigger tremendously especially when compared to the original horrendously heavy SA trigger that the Rhino comes with straight out of the box.
It's nice to get some actual figures rather than expressing my own opinion of how much better it feels, hopefully this may inspire other owners to have a go at doing the same to theirs and finally getting the SA trigger pull into the realms of useability rather than relegating the gun to double action only use.

These results are certainly very good compared to my memory of needing a block and tackle attached to the trigger to make it shoot.

It certainly makes a world of difference to the gun David, SA shooting is a joy with the gun now rather than being an exercise in finger strength ability. It's even better to be able to finally remedy the only fault that the gun ever had ! Just watching the video again and seeing the trigger pull gauge results in SA that he got prior to doing the mod and he got a feather under 12lb ! And I don't think mine was very much different (tbh) so a reduction of 7lb down to a 5lb SA trigger pull is bloody marvellous !
