Reviews Summary

Overall, the Timney sear and spring for Ruger rifles enhance trigger performance notably, resulting in lighter trigger pulls. However, many users face challenges with installation and require modifications for proper fit, which can be frustrating. While it delivers better performance post-tuning, the lack of clear instructions and the need for mechanical skills prevent some customers from giving it higher ratings.

Be careful fitting it

To fit this you must file the safety pad on the factory trigger. If you go too far, you can not buy a replacement trigger from Ruger, you must either send the rifle back to the factory or put in an aftermarket trigger. I put this sear in a M77/17, but it had a lot of creep. I then tried it in a M77/22, and it gave a nice 2.5 lb pull. I eventually put a Rifle Basix trigger in the M77/17 and it was MUCH easier to install and gave a better pull. I would not buy the Timney sear again and would not recommend it.
