I've stopped carrying my P365 and have gone back to my Ruger LC9S Pro because the trigger on my P365 is just so miserable.
When I initially complained about it I was told that there are trigger kits that can improve the trigger on a P365 a lot. So I am at the point where I want to make that change. Because shooting it for 200 rounds has not resulted in any improvement.
I've stopped counting.

Thanks for the input, I'll probably give it a try even though I don't expect it will provide a solution. My problem with the trigger on my P365 is that it is so mushy I cannot feel the trigger break and that just bugs the hell out of me. The best way to describe it is that it's like dragging a stick thru thick mud with large chunks of gravel in it. Considering that my prior experience with Sig pistols are two P239's and a P229 Elite Stainless this mess is a bit shocking.
Took at the Apex web site but it seems they haven't gotten around to a trigger kit for the P365.
Did check the grayguns web site and see they offer an action package for the P365 and may look into that option. Bad news about that is with the FFL shipping in the mix I suspect it's going to be about a 300 dollar final cost.
I've stopped counting.

I’ve had 2 365’s but sold one to a friend. The trigger is what attracted me to the platform. If yours is that bad have you considered calling Sig?
Another suggestion might be to set up a regimen of dry-fire practice to learn the trigger. It’s totally different from classic P series SIG’s. Just a suggestion. Good luck on your endeavor.

I’ll second the MCARBO flat trigger. I put one in each of my P365’s and even with the standard springs, the results were amazing. Now, it’s still no 1911 glass rod breaking trigger, don’t think it will ever be, but the travel and feel was greatly improved.

So far it's looking like that spring kit that Paten suggested and the Mcarbo kit may be the way to go. If I start seeing light primer strikes as Rick Lee noted I can then try either the stock striker spring or the one from Paten's spring kit.

Some other options that people typically bring up:
I've used the M*Carbo spring kit and the striker spring did cause a few light primer strikes due to the lighter striker spring. I've read online about other people having similar issues with their kit. That being said, I wouldn't modify the striker spring for safety reasons.
The one that seems the most comprehensive and effective to me is the Tactical Triggers kit because of the overtravel stop, which I believe would have the most to do with the clean break. It requires a proprietary slide end cap though in order to maintain typical slide removal. Otherwise you have to remove the end plate to take the slide down.
I use the M*Carbo trigger which takes out most of the take up on its own. I highly recommend that trigger regardless of what kit you may end up with.
