Hey yall.
Well Today I got my new stock for my new 10/22 I decided to try it out and went to the range, I had never own a 10/22, Im usually a Savage guy but I decided to give it a try to the 10/22, anyways It did just fine, is no as accurate as my other savage rifles but for the price, I cant complain. Something that I didnt like of this rifle was the trigger. It was kinda sloppy if you ask me so I have decide to upgrade the trigger but I dont know where to look or have any idea of what to get. Like I say before Im usually a savage guy and never had to look for something like this, So I was hoping yall guys can help me pick a good trigger something no too expensive, but good. haha.
Oh well I hope yall can help me.
Thanks

'Drop-in' parts are OK, and there are better ones out there than others. Volquartsen, Power Custom, Timney, Jard, and many others make parts that you can put in yourself. I've used a few different ones and have had varying degrees of success. Depending on what you want to spend, you can do about anything you want. Remember, though...'drop-in' parts have to have a fairly wide range of tolerances to work in, so they're not going to be as good as they could be, unless you get either the full internals or pick up a complete trigger assembly.

Full trigger groups would be the easiest way to go. Also the most expensive, but, alas, TANSTAAFL. Most economical would be to get a hammer, bushings, shims set and DIY. Of course, for about the same $$$, you can have your parts worked and fitted to do whatever you choose.

PM me if you're interested; I do 10/22 stuff all the time and have a pretty darn good trigger, if I do say so, myself...

If you want to save a ton of money and DIY then watch this video, it's a great instructional on a 10/22 trigger job: http://greatwestgunsmithing.com/1022 trigger job high.html
That's great advce if the OP is "handy". I got my 10-22 for free as part of another deal because the original owner tried to do his own trigger job and mucked it up. He lost the sear spring and desroyed the sear and part of the hammer. LOL. Then he couldn't figure out how to put it back together and sat it in a shed until I came along.:laugh:

You're the guy who picked it up along with the AK? That was a great deal!

Well like many have suggested here, you can buy just a few aftermarket parts and you can have a very nice trigger. If money is no object the Kidd trigger is great. If you can find one, the Jewell is probably better but there not made anymore as far as I know. Lurk around Rimfirecentral a bit and be prepared to spend your children's fortune. Let the madness begin:biggrin::biggrin:
 
You could buy the parts from Clark customs for 65 bucks i think. I did mine by diamond stoneing it and made it pretty good but not great. Ended up buying a Jard adjustable trigger assembly pre-set at 1lb, really a nice trigger.
