Closest I can come is a Ruger 77-22. Bought it cheap from an individual at an OKC gunshow. It had possibly the worst trigger I have ever pulled, next to the one that came on my 77 Mk II 30-06. After a $30 sear and spring, it is a very accurate little bolt action .22.

After $115 for a new Timney trigger, the 30-06 is also a pleasure to shoot. I had a smith at H&H weigh the trigger, and he told me it was somewhere over eight pounds. That is as high as his scale went. I suspectr it was close to 12. Now it's a nice 3 +
This has been my only significant complaint about Ruger firearms. I have owned a half dozen 10/22 rifles over the years and like them, but all of them needed trigger work.

I have 2 at the moment. A 10/22 VLEH and a MkIII Stainless Target. Will probably have a 22/45 Target tomorrow. Agree about the trigger work. I replaced the trigger housing in my VLEH with a Volquartsen trigger, which is much better.

Never took to the 10/22 so I never bothered to buy one. Do have a Security Six, GP100, Standard 22 auto, and a Bisley 44 magnum. Oh, and a P90 I never shoot anymore.

I got my first 10-22 a few years ago. Had always wanted one, but when you could buy a new 30-30 for a hundred bucks, 10-22s were two....

It has taken awhile, but I have warmed up to my blackhawk. Love my 22-45.
