Missing screw ? Ruger trigger

[FatCatsDad]

This is a Ruger M77 Mark II compact 243.

Is there a screw missing from this hole ?

I just bought it and noticed this while assembling the stock to the action after cleaning.

My Ruger compact 7 08 does not have a hole like that, maybe check the serial # and download a parts break down

I have a 2010 Ruger Hawkeye Compact in 243 Win - does not have that hole either. I looked in Ruger 77 Mark II manual - not seeing a Ruger trigger with that hole / screw either. Do you have reason to know that is an OEM Ruger trigger, versus an aftermarket one??

Also, if you are re-assembling that stock to that action - that angled screw at front of magazine - under the floor plate - might want to look up Ruger spec - is like 95 inch pounds torque that Ruger calls for - way, way higher torque than any other gun screw that I know of ...

I have a 0 to 200 inch pound torque wrench, it was tight coming out.
I always look up torque specs.
95 seems excessive though.

I'll dig around for the trigger info, I'll send an email to the seller

Yup, It's a Timney trigger.
Would have been nice to know.
It's a great gun, love the 16 inch barrel.

Nice way to go with a well dialed in Timney.
