Looking for Very Light Trigger for Ruger 77/22

[radshooter]

I have a nice shooting Ruger 77/22 and would like to put a very light trigger (ideally Jewell but they don't make them for the Ruger) on it (2.5 ounces would be ideal, but under 1 lb minimum). Any one have any suggestions of a good quality trigger that would fit the bill? Thanks much!

Volquartsen makes a 1.5lb target sear kit:https://www.volquartsen.com/products/237-7722-target-sear

Rifle basix makes a trigger:http://www.midwayusa.com/viewproduct/?productnumber=334414
Spec-Tech does as well:http://www.brownells.com/1/3/spec-tech-ruger-77-22-triggers

Timney also makes a sear and spring kit as well:http://timneytriggers.com/sunshop/catalog/ruger/ruger-7722-7722-25.html

They are all 1.5lb and up triggers/sear kits, but maybe you can combine the sear and trigger and get it lighter? Though I have no idea if that will work.

Hope it helps, good luck.

I'm really new to shooting, so bear with me I am also looking for a much lighter trigger for my 77/22. If I just get one of these sear kits, will I be able to use it with the factory trigger and lighten the pull? If I do use the factory trigger, will I need to grind it down or anything like that, or are these sear kits just bolt in installs? I ran accross the Jard and Spec-Tec triggers, but I really like the finish on the factory trigger and would rather keep that if I can. Thanks!

radshooter...I have a Ruger 77/22 that I wanted a 2oz target grade trigger for---couldn't find one. Bought a Jard trigger and adjusted it as light as I could get it---8oz w/ sharp letoff. has remained consistant and reliable.

The volquartzen is a drop in but it create's a little creep with the factory trigger .It lightened mine down to about a pound.You can also get lighter trigger springs from volquartzen and others like brownell's.

+1 on the Jard. Nice trigger on my .17HMR 77/22.
