Does anyone have personal experience with the "Power Custom" trigger for the Ruger model 10-22??

I am comtemplating the purchase of one, and would like opinions from those who have used them.

T.I.A.

I have five 10/22s that I've rebuilt and I used it in one of them. Used a Volquartsen in another. Then I tried a Kidd and it was like the clouds parted and sexy angels showed up with cupcakes and candy. The Power Custom was a lot better than the factory trigger but I like the Kidd way more than the others I tried.

All directly proportional to costs

Not sure what you mean by "Trigger", just the trigger, complete trigger housing or "target-hammer. I have installed a number of Power Custom tarket hammer kits. I prefer the Volquartsen kits. ... :rolleyes:

Been there as well and they are good but I have yet to experience anything spiritual. .... ;)

I have used the Volquartsen hammer (trigger job in a box) kit which is similar, I also own two professionally hand tuned factory triggers and have a couple of Volquartsen complete trigger assemblies. I also own a high-buck Kidd 2-stage and it's so far better than anything else I've used on my 7 10/22s that all I can say is wow. I've really been tempted to try the Kidd trigger job in a box for polymer trigger assemblies, but it's expensive. Anyway here is my list from best (top) to worst (bottom).

  1. Kidd 2-stage trigger (~$300)
  2. intentionally blank
  3. intentionally blank
  4. intentionally blank
  5. Volquartsen complete 2-1/4lb trigger assembly (~$220)
  6. Hand tuned 2-2.25lb factory trigger from anyone of 3-4 specialists (~$75-120)
  7. Drop-in 1.7-2.5lb trigger job in a box kit ($40-110).
  8. Untouched 4-1/2lb factory target trigger
  9. Old 6-7lb or so factory trigger
My advice is if you can't afford a $200-300 trigger then spend $75 to have it had tuned.

I've got a Kidd single stage and love it. Real easy to drop into your trigger housing. I'm thinking about building another 10/22 and this time i'm thinking about a 2 stage Kidd. Check on rimfirecentral.com in the 10/22 section. Lots of information over there.

Why not try honing your trigger on a stone? Go very slow and don't change the angles. We used to do that back in the '80s before all the aftermarket triggers came out.
