So let's review: I spent $200.00 on a new scope, 4 or 5 boxes of ammo (about $100.00), and $50.00 on a trigger job to learn finally that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the gun in the first place.
Big dummy.
I wouldn't say that. So now you have an extra scope which doesn't hurt, you got about 100 rounds of practice, and $50 is a pretty good deal on a trigger job which NEVER hurts on a Ruger trigger.
