I had a Ruger MKII that had a typical heavy pull for that model gun. Took it to the best gunsmith in this area, and asked him to replace the factory trigger with a Timney. He growled at me saying he could do a trigger job on the factory unit that would be perfectly satisfactory, and if I wasn't happy he would install a Timney for free. 2 months later he had it done. He did a great job for exactly what the Timney trigger itself would have cost me. Either way, Ruger triggers are annoying. I bought a Ruger Hawkeye Predator that had an adjustable two stage trigger that was great.
