10/22 what is the best trigger group on the market?

If you're not in a hurry this is a good price. I think mine took three weeks.

Ruger 90462 BX Trigger Ruger 10/22, 22 Charger Curved 2.75 lbs

<p>The BX-Trigger is a light, crisp, "drop-in" replacement trigger assembly that is compatible with all Ruger 10/22 rifles and 22 Charger pistols. This trigger is the ideal upgrade because of the significantly reduced pull weight of approximately 2.75 pounds.</p>

+1 ON THE BX. My 10/22 WMR had a terrible trigger. Had a local smith try to clean it up, but no joy. It sat in the safe for a long time so when Ruger came out wit the BX I said what the hey.
Wow, what an improvement. Makes me wonder why did they take so long? Now the only thing keeping me from shooting more is ammo price & finding ammo.

I have asked myself a similar question since the BX-trigger came out.

It's still a plastic trigger housing so why don't they just build all 10/22's with one? If it retails for less than $100 then it costs Ruger $25 or less to make and their cost to install it from the factory would be cut in half as each rifle only needs one trigger group. So they could add $25 to MSRP and still make more money with less waste and a better product if it's really that good.

I'll keep my metal ones. Stocking up for years.

One thing that hasn't been answered/mentioned here is, if OP is from Poland, is anything trigger related even able to be exported under "firearms laws" to a foreign country, even if they're under the Axis of being allies of the USA?

If so, then I'd go with the simple drop-in due to it being already setup with a consistent/tested poundage pull and not just parts where the trigger pull is somewhere close to the listed pull of +/- by some percentage ounces the selling company lets OTD.

I have a much older 10/22 from the 90's that I customized into a target shooter/plinker and I put in a Butler Creek (discontinued) trigger/sear/hammer setup, but during that time there wasn't much available. I also did some work on the springs for it and it sets around 3-4#s for a nice easy shooter over factory stock. I also did a "poor country boy" trigger over-travel stop by drilling a hole/tapping a screw into the metal trigger guard.

NOW, for my Ruger 77/22 Magnum, I installed a JARD 1-/12# trigger-set in it, but it took a bit of time to get it to not slam fire or set-off by doing a bounce test on floor carpet that would set it off, so it took some time and work very slowly to get just right.
However, once I got it to be safe, I locktited that sucker's set screw to know it won't move over time to be unsafe. It's now been about 15-20yrs since installing and it shoots so beautifully now, instead of such a heavy, long trigger pull. For JARD you will pay the price, but they are nice and this was the only aftermarket system available for it at the time.

Good question Delbert.
In Poland trigger is treated as non-vital gun part meaning that this is just an accessory. Anyone knows how it is on the US side?
