10/22 Triggers…..what is the best?

[7.62mm]

Starting a build, to scratch an itch…..

Opinions welcome on the best 10/22 trigger out there please.

Kidd

I got Brimstone to do a tier 2 trigger job on my 10/22....its awesome 2lbs pull and trigger return system. took about a month but totally worth it.

Stoned mine 20 odd years ago.

Kidd and i will say out of any aftermarket trigger for any platform the kidd trigger I owned for my 10/22 was probably the very best trigger i have ever used and probably the most expensive

 

[Longstud]

I’ve built many and by far the hands down winner is Kidd. I’ve owned and used them all and it’s not even close. Ask anyone who’s used one!!

The Ruger 10/22 OEM trigger is amazing in it's consistency. On my 2000 era stainless 10/22, after maybe 4000 rounds, the trigger was just as terribly heavy as it was when new..........

Kidd 2 Stage followed by Kidd single Stage, VQ, Timney, BX can be a good for the money.

Bought a timney for mine for like 350$, its awful feels worse than my bx trigger and mag lever stays half open when mag is inserted

I have a timney on one of mine, I am happy with. Better than the worked over factory unit.
But I haven't ever used a Kidd, which I would expect to be top tier

I've never tried a Kidd but I have several Volquartsen TG-2000's and they are very good. Very crisp.

You can't adjust the pull weight which is ~2.25lbs but you can adjust the pre and over travel which is nice. A touch of pre-travel is a good thing!

Ruger BX triggers are an upgrade from stock for sure but not the greatest. Worth $150? Yes... but a quality trigger makes a huge difference.

Kidd 2 stage is incredible. Single stage is good as well.
Kidd trigger job kit? I believe that's what its called is also really good.

How much money do you want to spend becomes the question.

I have the 2 stage, wouldn't get rid of it. I have shot there single stage trigger group and its very good. Trigger job kit I also own and well worth the money.

As a few have said rhe ruger bx trigger can be quite good i have one in a shorty build and i acrually like it but best to buy where you can try a few diffrent ones as there not all the same. But kidd is still king of the hill in my eyes

Brimstone was great and affordable. I believe he shut down last year.

Kidd is superb.

Anyone try TandemKross?

 

[inthehizzy]

I went Timney, but you can’t go wrong with Kidd either.

 

[45CAT]

Kidd and if you can’t afford it buy their full kit to put in an old Ruger pack

Brimstone was great and affordable. I believe he shut down last year.

Kidd is superb.

Anyone try TandemKross?

I have the TK Ultimate kit and it is a consistent 2lb pull.
It gets rid of the coil return spring for a torsion spring setup, feels light but with positive reset. The TK kit was actually developed with help from Brimstone.
Much nicer than my VQ trigger kit.

Bx is good enough for me. Only upgrades I did on my 10-22s. Affordable too.
If I was into competitions or making money with it, I'd probably go for the kidd.
It's a 22 at the end of the day

 

[Rankuwa]

Very pleased with the BX. Have some higher end triggers in other rifles so I do know what I'm missing with Kidd/VQ, but for how I use a 10/22 the BX is perfect value.

I have had VQ, Brimstone & Kidd two stage. None were even close to the Kidd.
