A good friend of mine is attempting to reduce the trigger pull on his 10/22.
He doesn't want to spend a fistfull of money in purchasing another trigger group. He has asked me to see if anyone here can give him suggestions on how to stone the sear. Can anyone point us in the right direction?
:sniper:Thanks in advance.

take a stroll through the stickies above in the rimfire section. there are some posts contained within that will help you out doing your trigger jobs.
 
Tell him to just spend the $40 and buy a new hammer ,probley his best bet . Mabey do a search on youtube might help as well . Best of luck
 
I looked at a DIY stoning job too. The problem is the precision needed makes it difficult to do by hand, you need a fixture of some sort to keep the angle correct and constant.
I ended up buying a hammer and sear. For the $40 each it's hard to justify the hours of tinkering.

Once you have a correctly done hammer you could make a fixture to duplicate it.

However, if you must I found a couple of tutorials.

I polished the various internals using the following thread and my trigger pull was considerably smoother and lighter. All it cost me was a couple dollars to buy some emery cloth and I used the oil I normally use for polishing my knives. After a few hours of polishing I was done. I think it was more satisfying (and cheaper) to do the work myself.

If you take your time, you can definately do it yourself. I'd recommend for someone on a budget, pick up an inexpensive, fine (flat) stone at Princess Auto.
 
Resurrecting an old thread with good news.

I read this thread and decided to go for it with a Volquartsen hammer from rimfiresports.com. Free shipping, easy install, and a group touching at 25 yards with an otherwise stock 10 22.

I highly recommend this upgrade.
