I would like to find out if anybody has reworked their 10-22 trigger into a decent 2 to 2 1/2 lb trigger, with minimal creep etc.
I do not want to go , the "just buy it route" I would like to rework the stock trigger . I probably could do it right off but it would be nice to find out from somebody who has done it before .I have a small shop with some machine tools etc

I haven't simply because I don't have the "stones" to do my own trigger work yet.:lol:
Learning trigger stoning is on my list of "Things to Learn" though.

You have any links to information? I'm trying to stone my carbine.

Chuckles,
Check the Brownell's catalog. They sell a couple of different stoning fixtures that will alow you to set the proper angle to stone the hammer notch. You can also grind and stone the sfc. area where the sear lets off, to get rid of more of the creep.
You may want to look at a Volquartsen target hammer for reference, as they have the proper notch angle.
Good luck,
Matt

It is not rocket science . Mostly its getting rid of overengagement and rough surfaces . I use a jig to hold the part and guide the hone .I have used a diamond blue hone for rough and a lapstone to finish. It has worked well for me in the past .Just wanted to see if anybody could give me some ideas on how they got theirs nice . I like to have triggers that you think bang and its gone ,but you can bounce the rifle on the stock on a hard surface and it holds. You are not aware of creep until you let the trigger reset and feel the little bit of forward movement . I have had the little carbine for years and somehow never got to work on the trigger (hate the factory pull)
