Ruger M77 mark II who makes the best aftermarket trigger?

[killswithkimber]

looking to buy a trigger for my 204 Ruger. Just curious on who has purchased one and what there thoughts are on it?

 

[Mad_Mikee]

I have a Timney in mine and seems to work pretty good.

I've heard good things about Spec Tech triggers.

I like timney in some applications but put one in the Ruger Mk II. I found it kind of chessey. Does not look as rugged as a Ruger and you have toModify (shorten with a file ) the safety. It works well but if you decide to go back to the original trigger it safety probably would also have to be changed. I would take a close look at all that are available before making a decision.

I had the factory trigger lighten to 3.5 pounds. It breaks clean.

I used the timney on the last one I owned. Worked well.

Rifle Basix makes one as well I think? I just had the factory trigger tuned to 3 lbs.

For a hunting rifle the original factory mass produced Ruger mII trigger is as good as it is unless somebody have custom HB target rifle. With some stoning and spring tension adjustment I was able to lower it to 3lbs or so in both of my Rugers (LH 7-08 & LH 30-06 RCBS Imp) and wouldn't dare to go any lower than that.
Those hunting rifles don't need $200 + instalation "improovements".

I've got a Spec Tech in my Hawkeye. Nice little trigger. Stainless steel, adjustable, ship to Canada, lifetime guarantee, and to top it all off they are great to deal with.

X3 on the Timney here too!

I have some Wolfe spring kits haven't installed one yet

 

[LittleBoyLefty]

I've done Timneys in a couple. Very good trigger, but keep in mind they do require some fitting. I'd use them again if they need arose.

 

[amosfella]

Brownells single set trigger... best of a match trigger and hunting trigger in one package...

I used a Timney in my older tang safety Ruger 77V 22-250. Way better than the original but some work was required to get it to fit right. Very pleased with the result.

x2. Barry at Bits of Pieces adjusted the factory triggeron my MKII and it's probably the nicest trigger of my collection.

I installed a Timney ordered from Mystic Precision.
It required fitting.

The Timney parts are to be fitted. No filing of the original Ruger parts is required, if installed correctly. If the Timney is installed correctly, switching to another trigger or back to the original is not a problem.
