10/22 triggers
I hate the trigger on my 10/22. Not crimp and about 6lbs of pull. So, I took the thing apart last night and pulled out the sear.
I was going to order the trigger/sear compt. for 10/22 in cabelas for 55 dollars. It says it sets the trigger to 2.5lbs. Does anyone have any experience with this setup? Can anyone suggest another?
Also, I was thinking of totally redoing my 10/22 in the process. What does people think of the green mountain barrels.
I think the blued/unfluted, with the synthetic stock and a light crisp trigger will make a heck of a plinker/ squirrel rifle.

RE: 10/22 triggers
Thanks Drache. I went to that site and they have a few sear/hammer kits but don't really tell the pull. For my 22, I want a 2lb pull. They have one kit on there for over 100 dollars.
Also, if I was to buy one or the other, which is more important for trigger pull wieght, the trigger or sear?

RE: 10/22 triggers
BC,
I totally re-built my 10/22 using the Volquartsen Trigger Assembly. The whole thing came complete and ready to install. Just drop it in. The trigger breaks clean as glass at about 17oz. No creep,stacking or over-travel. In a word- unbelievable!
I mated this up to a Butler Creek carbon fiber bbl and their target stock with the built in bipod.
For accuracy purposes I used an extended scope rail that screwed into both the receiver and the barrel(the bbl had to be tepped)and bedded the scope rail.
Topped the whole thing off with a Leupold VX II in 4x12x50AO. It shoots 1 hole groups!
Hope this helps.

RE: 10/22 triggers
I've got a 10/22 that couldn't hit a barn from the inside. It seems that everyone loves the 10/22 because you can make it into a great shooting rifle if you just replace the trigger, barrel, stock, receiver, recoil pad, sling swivels, etc. Heck, if you replace everything including the open sights it'll be a MOA rifle!
I've had it with rugers. I've given them enough chances to prove to me that they can make a rifle that will hit a buick at 100 yds. They've failed at every attempt. Let ruger go into the toilet like they deserve.

RE: 10/22 triggers
Boltman, I hate to hear your problems with your 10/22. I understand but put factory guns of any brand in the catagory of "its the luck of the draw". Fortunately, I have an accurate one. But the trigger sucked. Good squirrel gun. I have had about every major brand of gun and when I find a good one, no matter of the brand, I keep it and fix it up.
