10/22 BX25 trigger assembly

[trekkerpaul]

Thinking about getting one to replace a factory original. Is it worth the 55-70 to buy it? Pro and cons for those of you that have used them please. Thanks

I picked one up from BiMart after Christmas for less than $40. I have not had a chance to install it yet.

Bimart is closer to 70 now. I can get them online for around 55. Just don't know if it's worth it.

I have them installed on three rifles and love them. I've tried other parts swap types and ended up with lighter triggers but also light primer strikes. The Ruger BX25 trigger group feels lighter and works for me

Ive got one and also the volquartsen bolt release. The trigger is OK. Its not great but its much better than the stock pull.

That's good to know. Not looking for a competition trigger or one that is over light. Too bad Ruger doesn't just provide them in the rifles.

Installed one this week on the family 10/22. Much better than stock but still usable for everyday plinking.

First, and so far only, change I made to my 10-22. Stock trigger was heavy, and the BX-25 trigger group was an easy change at a good price. I've checked the rimfire forums and it seems most are spending hundreds on high-end bolts, trigger groups, barrels, stocks, etc. I'm not willing to spend tons of money on a plinker that will get more use by the grandkids than me.

I used to put a high dollar trigger in every 10/22 I owned. Then the BX-1 trigger was offered, for one-third the price of a Volquartsen , Kidd or Jard. It's not as nice as a $200 trigger, but far superior to the factory trigger.

I picked one up on sale at Bi-Mart too. Same results as others have commented.

 

[GOG]

I've got one in my takedown. It beats the heck out of stock for little money. But as has been mentioned it should be original equipment.

It is Ruger and theyve always been liability sensitive. An enthusiast part like a light trigger on a 22 rifle is something that I'll give kudos to Ruger for even offering as an aftermarket add on. Installing it in the gun from the get go isnt Rugers way.

At least one Ruger 10/22 comes with the BX trigger installed 21157, Well-RegulatedMilitia.com/FFL

Anyone know what they're going for at Bimart currently? Was Planning on picking one up from Sportsman's Warehouse tomorrow but if I can save $20 by going to my favorite store on the planet I sure will.

I thought about it and i happen to live about a mile away from their shop, but a buddy of mine had a really bad experience with them so I've been very leery about using them for anything.

The best trigger setup for the money is a Kidd trigger kit in a Ruger plastic trigger housing.

I used Brimstone Gunsmithing and got their Tier 2 treatment for my 10/22 trigger group and couldn't be happier. Also, don't forget to replace the steel bolt buffer with a synthetic one.

I have read some accounts that the Ruger trigger group can have some differences ..... some good, some not as good and if given the opportunity you should try several before you buy. Not all places will allow that though.

they r on sale this week at bimart, a few pennies shy of fifty bucks.
I put one in last night, and the 2.5lb pull is miles and heads above my old one at 5.5. wow. For the money I'm very happy, range test tomorrow.

FYI the bimart guy told me..he's a gunny...that all the new 10-22's have 8 lb triggers, if not more. He pulled one out of the rack and we checked it, yep, he was right !!!

Ruger says it's a safety thing 'for the kids'..I say they are pushing us to buy a halfway decent trigger

DANG now I wan't a real good trigger.

 

[Portaledgepete]

Will the parts from the BX trigger fit into the metal housing from an older rifle or would I have to set it aside and use the plastic housing?
