I have a 3-inch Ruger LCRx .22 Mag with an adjustable rear sight. The six pound Single Action trigger pull is very smooth but too heavy to use the sights effectively for offhand shooting, especially because the revolver weighs only 18 ounces. I didn't buy it to shoot out of a mechanical rest or to use as a belly gun; I bought it to use as a trail gun with good sights tuned to the particular ammo it likes best.
My target rimfires have as little as 2.5 lb. SA pull weights without any ignition problems, but they weigh more than the LCRx.
Question: To reduce the LCRx trigger pull weight is it advisable to clip a coil or two off of the mainspring? Polishing the internal Teflon-coated parts did very little or no good, and I would like to achieve about a three lb. SA pull.
I would appreciate your advice.
