In that article, I listed out some of\u00a0 the most-common upgrades to make your rifle more accurate, which included improving the stock trigger of your gun. But just how much of a difference does upgrading the trigger of your gun actually make? Will you recognize big improvement at the range with the right 10\/22 trigger upgrades?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shooters commonly turn to trigger upgrades along with other modifications to enhance the performance of a rifle. They&#8217;ll do things like swap-in a new barrel or stock or other accessory. To isolate how a better trigger increases accuracy, I\u2019m going to take a dead-stock Ruger 10\/22 and only improve the trigger on it. I\u2019ll compare groups shot at 25 yards before installing the trigger upgrade and then after installation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drop In Accuracy Improvement<\/span><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_3389\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-magnific_type=\"image\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3389\" class=\"wp-image-3389 size-medium\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"testing a 10\/22 trigger\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-1080x720.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing-627x418.jpg 627w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/ammo_testing.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3389\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shooting off a rest adds consistency and stability<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The specific 10\/22 trigger upgrade I\u2019ll be using is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/shopruger.com\/Ruger-BX-Trigger-Red\/productinfo\/90631\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ruger\u2019s own BX Trigger<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which is advertised as a drop-in trigger for the 10\/22. This made it very appealing, as I am mechanically inept. I\u2019m pleased to report that the trigger installed just as advertised. I was able to swap out triggers in just a few minutes using simple tools, literally using my kitchen table as a workbench. Kudos to Ruger for making a 10\/22 trigger upgrade that installs as advertised.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s pause for a moment to address how we talk about triggers. What seems like a simple idea (press the trigger and the gun goes bang) actually has four distinct phases:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pre-travel, the rearward motion of the trigger before the gun goes off<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Release, the moment when the trigger releases the hammer or striker and the gun goes bang<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over-travel, movement of the trigger after the gun goes bang\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reset, the forward movement of the trigger required to start the process all over again\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Talk About Triggers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many different words like \u201ctakeup, \u201cslack\u201d and \u201cbreak\u201d used to describe portions of these actions. In general, though, a good trigger has the following characteristics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pre-Travel: The movement of the trigger back towards you should be consistent. The pressure required to move the trigger should stay the same. If the trigger moves without any pressure from the springs inside the gun, that\u2019s called \u201cslack.\u201d If the pressure increases as you pull the trigger, we call that \u201cstacking.\u201d A good trigger has minimal slack and no stacking. Any changes in the amount of effort you need to pull the trigger can affect how your gun moves when you break the shot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gimme A (Trigger) Break<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nRelease: A good trigger has a release point that\u2019s definite and noticeable. A crisp, clean break right before the gun goes bang allows for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/getting-over-jerking-the-trigger\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a consistent trigger press<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which in turn allows for greater accuracy. A mushy trigger, or a trigger with a poorly defined break, requires an uncertain amount of pressure on the trigger to fire the gun, which can lead to more movement of the gun during the trigger press. This, in turn, leads to decreased accuracy downrange.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overtravel: Let\u2019s assume you did everything correctly during the first two stages of a correct trigger press. The trigger pre-travel was smooth and consistent. The break on the trigger was smooth and definite, and the gun just went off with a loud bang. The bullet, however, is still in the muzzle, making its way out of the gun and headed towards the target. Any movement of the gun before the bullet flies out the barrel will affect the results downrange. This includes movement from pressing the trigger. Trigger movement after the bang, or overtravel can affect accuracy because your trigger finger is still in motion, even though the bullet hasn\u2019t quite left the gun yet. Excessive amounts of overtravel is not something you want in a good trigger, so pay attention to how your trigger works before, during and after the shot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reset Your Expectations<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reset: Consistent results are the key to good accuracy, and a trigger with a distinct reset gives you a consistent point to start the process of firing your gun once more. The gun industry talks a lot about whether you should keep your finger on the trigger as it moves forward and resets (\u201criding the reset\u201d) or whether it\u2019s okay to move your finger off the trigger after it\u2019s finished moving forward. I think it\u2019s different for different shooting sports. If you\u2019re shooting a run and practical pistol match, a good trigger reset is the least of your concerns. If you\u2019re shooting <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/getting-started-in-precision-rifle\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">precision rifle<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, however, resetting everything back to where you started becomes very important. Adjust your trigger discipline to the sport you&#8217;re shooting, and move on to other things.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to all of this, the less effort you need to move the trigger, the less effect that movement has on where your gun is pointed when it goes bang. This is why guns that have a lower trigger pull, which is measured in pounds and ounces, tend to be more accurate than guns that require more force to move the trigger.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Putting The 10\/22 Trigger Upgrades To The Test<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that we\u2019ve talked about what a good trigger is and how it affects our shooting, let\u2019s take a look at how this 10\/22 trigger upgrade will have on a target downrange. The ammo I\u2019m using for this test is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/22-long-rifle-aguila-40-grain-lrn-50\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">40 grain Aguila Round Nose Match ammo<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This ammo performed very well in our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/22-match-ammo\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">22LR match ammo test<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and it\u2019s quite affordable compared to other match ammunition.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rifle is a dead-stock Ruger 10\/22 tactical which we&#8217;ve equipped with a Leupold 1.5x-4x scope. It\u2019s the same rifle I used for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/the-appleseed-project-building-better-citizens-and-marksmen\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">my Appleseed match<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and I\u2019m very familiar with how it performs. I\u2019ll shoot four five round groups, once with the stock trigger, and once with the upgraded trigger. The rounds will be fired from a rest at a target that\u2019s 25 yards away, and we\u2019ll measure the groups with the Ammoman <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/sga\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shot Group Analyzer<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. We will also measure trigger weight before and after we added the 10\/22 trigger upgrade using a Lyman digital trigger scale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3387\" style=\"width: 163px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-magnific_type=\"image\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3387\" class=\"wp-image-3387 size-medium\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before-153x300.jpg\" alt=\"before the upgrade\" width=\"153\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before-153x300.jpg 153w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before-522x1024.jpg 522w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before-768x1506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before-783x1536.jpg 783w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before-610x1196.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before-510x1000.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/before.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 153px) 100vw, 153px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3387\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Accuracy wasn&#8217;t bad before the upgrade<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10\/22 Trigger Upgrade Test Results\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Before:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 1: 0.39 inches<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 2: 0.41 inches<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 3: 0.39 inches<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 4: 0.52 inches<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Average Trigger Weight (4 measurements): 4.5 pounds<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>After:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 1: 0.29 inches<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 2: 0.41 inches<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 3: 0.31 inches<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Group 4: 0.4 inches<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3388\" style=\"width: 198px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-magnific_type=\"image\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3388\" class=\"wp-image-3388 size-medium\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after-188x300.jpg\" alt=\"upgraded trigger difference\" width=\"188\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after-188x300.jpg 188w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after-642x1024.jpg 642w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after-768x1225.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after-963x1536.jpg 963w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after-610x973.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after-627x1000.jpg 627w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/after.jpg 1003w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 188px) 100vw, 188px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3388\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The new trigger shrunk the groups by less than 1\/2 MOA.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Average Group Size: 0.35 inches<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Average Trigger Weight (4 measurements): 2.5 pounds<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feels Better, Shoots Better<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clearly, installing one of the many different 10\/22 trigger upgrades out there had an effect on marksmanship. The groups on the target were smaller with the better trigger, and the trigger itself was easier to pull. More than that, however, the gun felt better as I was shooting it. My shots with the stock trigger were more hesitant and more uncertain. The higher trigger weight of the stock trigger resulted in a longer time to pull the trigger for each shot. This in turn led to my scope wandering slightly off target and poorer results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ruger BX trigger, on the other hand, required less force to move the trigger, and it had a shorter pre-travel as well. This meant that I could divert attention from pressing the trigger to keeping my sight on-target. The results on paper were minimal, less than half MOA. However, I can&#8217;t overstate the confidence this trigger upgrade gave me. The gun felt better in my hands as I fired each shot, and I believe that positive attitude had some effect on my performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Will adding a better trigger improve the accuracy of your rifle? Based on this test, I can confidently say it will. How much of an improvement tends on the trigger and your rifle, but even one of the many simple 10\/22 trigger upgrades made a good rifle even better. None of this matters, though, if you can\u2019t make the shot. Upgrade your shooting skills, and you\u2019ll soon find out just how much more you\u2019ll get from upgrading the trigger on your gun.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Do 10\/22 Trigger Upgrades Actually Do?\u00a0 Not too long ago, I wrote an article on improving rifle accuracy, where I laid out the basic steps to make a good rifle great, and a great rifle into a tack driver.
