Ruger american trigger

Larry
Interesting mod for the sear adjustment...happy it works for you. RA Action and trigger is a good base for a competition rifle that wont break the bank. I made a few mods to one last year and have the pull weight set at 6 ozs for benchrest duty...could have gone lighter but didnt want to risk it. I removed the trigger lock as you did and replaced the return spring. Best mode was changing the trigger / sear geometry and polishing all engagement surfaces which was pretty much a standard trigger job most gunsmiths used to do before all the drop in replacements started being available. I honed the inside of the housing too and added trigger pin shims to take out some side to side slop. Except for a Bix and Andy or some other high dollar assemblies it is one of the cleanest breaking triggers i have ever felt.

i recommend the AD Arms Billet cocking piece too...polish the cam lobes on the cocking piece and the races/ramps (dont know the correct terminology) on the bolt and it will reduce felt bolt lift significantly.
