Trigger pull

Most of my Henry levers have pretty good trigger pulls with the exception of a X-Model .357. The pull was just over 4 pounds which I could live with but it had lots of creep. I ordered a Ranger Point sear and spring kit. I watched the video a couple times and the whole process took about 10 minutes. It was successful. RP claimed a 3.5 lb pull if the original spring is used and a little less with their spring. The pull registered right at 3.5 lbs with my RCBS gauge and was crisp and clean. :D

I'm not real handy at posting links but just go to Ranger Point Precision and go through their menu. While you're at it I'd suggest the take-down screw also.

Good info, thank you. I’ve never noticed the trigger pull to be other than average but I’ll pay more attention next time. Good to know there is a simple option for a better trigger.

I can tolerate a too heavy pull better than one with little false breaks. After a lifetime of "Kitchen table smithin" I can recall numerous events with orbiting spring loaded gun parts, dropped small parts, pins, detent balls...... :lol: :? But this kit was straight up simple. :D

I shot my 327 Big Boy yesterday and I didn’t notice any issues with the trigger. I forgot to really give it a test but will do so next time.

Good info, especially about how "doable" it is.
I don't mind a little extra weight on trigger pull, especially with a hunting gun, so this is good to know.
