Rifle Basix RU-R Trigger for Ruger 77/22, 77/17, 77/44, and 77/22 Hornet - Silver

Very easy to install follow the directions and pay attention to the safety screw adjustment, once you have it set up and working properly the trigger is smooth and light. 20 minutes start to finish.

I purchased the Rifle Basix trigger for my 77/17. Installation onto the barreled action was very easy (just one pin after removing the barreled action from the stock). Getting the safety adjustment screw set just right requires a little patience, but is not difficult. When I tried to put the barreled action back in the stock, I could not get the trigger to function. After some playing around I noticed that the trigger was rubbing on the slot in the top of the trigger guard. I pulled out the micrometer and measured the thickness of the upper part of the trigger and it was more than 0.010" thicker than the Ruger factory trigger. I reached out to Rifle Basix, and within 3 days I had a replacement set to install (thank you Clay at Rifle Basix). I know that had I reached out to EABCO instead I would have received the same service! The replacement was properly sized and functions great. I don't have a proper trigger pull scale, but mine is set at about 1/4 or less of the factory pull. I've not been to the range but I expect my groups to improve significantly. Four things to watch out for during installation: 1. It does not mention in the instructions, but I would strongly suggest having a snap cap since you will be dry firing a lot and that can be harmful to a rimfire receiver and firing pin. 2. If you have the trigger pull set too low, as soon as you lower the bolt the rifle will fire. If this happens tighten the trigger pull adjustment screw until it does not. 3. Take care when adjusting the safety adjustment screw. If there is any movement in the trigger at all when the safety is in either "safe" position, it will fire when you move the safety from "safe" to "fire". Follow the directions carefully when adjusting the screw. I found an ignition wrench was the ideal tool to tighten the locking nut on the safety adjustment screw. 4. Once you put the barreled action back in the stock and re-install the trigger guard, if the trigger can be pulled but won't reset, or if you cannot pull the trigger, remove the trigger guard and check function again. As I mentioned, the first unit I received did not fit properly and was rubbing on the inside of the slot at the top of the Ruger trigger guard.

I installed this on my 77/22. Miles better than the old heavy factory trigger, great varmint trigger. One side note....you have to play with both the safety screw and the weight adjustment screw quite a bit to get it right. Function test the trigger REALLY well before putting the action back in the stock.

This is an awesome trigger and one of the easiest trigger jobs I've ever done.

Purchased the trigger for a Ruger 77/22 Hornet. Excellent trigger, crisp, clean break, no creep. I have the same triggers on an M77 .17HMR, .220 Swift, and a .270. Great on all of them. You will not be sorry, as they put stock Ruger triggers to shame.

Very easy install, great adjustment excellent trigger

This required some filing (on the Ruger safety interface) but the replacement trigger fits right in and was adjusted to 1.75lbs. No creep! Silky smooth! Whole thing took 10 minutes (for filing). Highly recommend: factory trigger was beyond horrible at 12.25lbs! Resighted my Ruger M77 MKII .243 with this trigger installed...what a difference!

Excellent trigger and is easy to install .
