Take the lock off and tighten the screws on the bridle.

took it apart and tightened up the bridle screws and had to move the pawl of sear was over the edge of the tumbler put it back together and still not working right when i use the set trigger and pull the other trigger it won't go all the way down over the nippleseems like maybe i should just not use the set trigger at this point

I would take the lock out again.  Loosen the screws and wiggle everything around to make sure everything is in the right position.  Tighten the screws again and operate the lock by hand to see if it appears to be working properly.   While the lock is out, inspect the inside of the mortise on the stock to see if the end of the arm of the sear is touching the wood.  Also, inspect the mortise well to see if there appears to be any rubbing between the lock works and the wood.  Anything dragging inside there will weaken the force the set trigger applies when it hits the sear arm.   Also, when you re-install the lock, back the lock bolt off about 1/2 or 3/4 turn after you screw it down tight.

There's a little part in there that's called the "Fly Detent". It just flops around in a notch/hole in the tumbler and lets the sear skip past the half-cock notch when the set trigger is used;
 

 
Check to be sure the Fly is indeed there and the fly needs to be loose so it moves,, aka: it needs lubrication
