max(hm2)dr. lou,
in my humble opinion it is the kepplinger sold by brownells. i have installed one canjar for a customer and several moyers for myself and other customers. the moyer is a remake of the original ruger three screw adjustable trigger. i have also installed about a half dozen of the kepplingers and i like them the best.

jpbI would go with the Kepplinger. I installed one for a buddy years ago. I don't recall any installation problems so it must have gone smoothly. More importantly, I do recall being mighty impressed with the design and workmanship! I was also impressed with the resultant trigger pull.
I have no experience with the other triggers so I can't comment on them -- yes, I know that this is unusual on the Internet!

craigsterI have a Moyers and a Kepplinger. The Kepplinger is light years beyond the Moyers. They are pricey but well worth it.

PJWhat is the drill on the installaion of the Kleppinger? Can a mechanically challenged senior citizen do it without going further off the deep end?

jpbHi PJ
Go for it!
I wish I could recall details... but I do recall that I did NOT have to modify the receiver, but beyond that I simply can't remember. I'm certain that means that I (no gunsmith, just a tinkerer!) had no problems or I would recall!
Perhaps you might want to join the Ruger No 1 group -- lots of discussion there on triggers, and accurizing (and the Kepplinger trigger is clearly the one that these boys like!).

Dr. LouThanks for the help. I played with a friends #1 that has a Kepplinger set trigger and I was thoroughly impressed. Lou
