Volquartsen Target Sear

I'm thinking about getting a Volquartsen Target Sear on Ebay for my Ruger 77/22 (LR). Only problem - it doesn't come with the spring. Is the spring absolutely necessary?

One other question - how hard is the installation? Could a reasonably intelligent 16 year old do it?

Thanks!

Not a problem

Use your original spring for it. You should be alright if you use a slave pin to put the disconnector and trigger back to gether.

One more questions - is there anywhere I can get installation instructions?

Just buy the target trigger kit, it comes with the spring and the polished guide pin and all the instructions. You need em all to make a real difference and yes anyone with a bit of sense and patience can do it fine.

Sorry about that

I didn't notice you have the Model 77/22. I would still use the original spring myself and sand it down if you need to. Most of the time the VQ springs are a bit too light for my tastes. I am not sure about the instruction sheet, but I would think one would come with the sear. If not, you might try going to this site and ask someone there about the 77/22:
