I traded for an older but like new compact M77 MkII in .308 W. I mounted my testing target scope on it and am going to shoot it a bit to see if it will shoot good enough to keep. Provided it does...the trigger is pretty heavy on it. It is not really creepy and does not have a lot of over travel...just heavy. I don’t have a scale but it is noticeably heavy. What is the best solution to lighten? I have never really messed with Ruger rifles before. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

Replacing the factory trigger with a Timney adjustable is the easiest way to improve it. John Farner If you haven't, please join the NRA! | |||

http://erniethegunsmith.com/catalog/c1_p1.html Nothing easier than this on new ruger triggers. A touch of stone if you want it better. Instructions on the site.

i use these triggers on savages, but assume they will work well on Rugers https://riflebasix.com/product...77-trigger-ru-mk-ll/ but a new spring, and a little stoning, the 77s shoot well opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

I will shoot it and see if it blows my dress up. If so looks like a new trigger is the way to go. I have heard good things about those Rifle Basix triggers...are they way cheaper than a Timney...which seems the gold standard? Also...there are a lot of people who swear by just changing the spring. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

Agree. That's all they need. We cut a coil off the stock and stone. Easy to get three crisp pounds w/o creep.

Agree 100%. I had a Timney installed in mine and the improvement was very rewarding~! | |||
