Anyone replace the factory Ruger trigger in a American Ranch Gen 2 for a Timney? Initally I thought the Ruger trigger was decent but the more comfortable I get with the rifle and the more rounds I shoot, I realize its not so great. I have no idea what the trigger weight is on it but its substantial and long. I like a 2 stage trigger and I see they make both a 1 and 2 stage for the rifle. Just wondering if anyone had tried one or done any work to their factory trigger.

Interested in owning a Gen 2 don’t have one yet. Pretty sure the trigger is adjustable if that doesn’t help by all means put a Timney in it. I had to do that with a Mossberg to stop it from firing when the bolt closed.

Have not used the Timney in the Americans, but there are replacement trigger springs on the market that can substantially improve the pull weight. I have replaced the springs in all my Americans, both Gen 1 and Gen 2. They are all at 2 lbs.

I just remove the trigger spring all together and have not had a single issue that way. Now the trigger safety spring is what resets the trigger. I treat them like a 2 stage trigger. Fist stage is pulling the safety blade back flush with the trigger, second stage is the crisp clean break.
