I'll try again from a different direction.

Why would I do anything to the half-cock? It has nothing to do with the sear and hammer hook relationship. There's no reason to alter the half cock notch.

You are equalizing the hooks' length .to .025" and I take that to mean bothhooks have the same distance to the body.
Right. One was longer than the other, so I laid a feeler gauge under the hooks and made them both the same length by cutting the tips flush with the gauge.
