As far as trigger mods try rimfire central.com. You can also search here on CG. I think I did a thread on the auto bolt mod awhile ago. That is a simple one that all you do is "oval" out the factory part. It is the part in the trigger group where you have to use your left hand to mess with the chingadera near your trigger in order to close that dang bolt. It is frustrating and it is the first thing that I do to every 10/22 I come into contact with. Takes like 10 minutes with my dremel. As to why to change the recoil buffer: Because the receiver is Aluminum and the factory part is steel. After lots of rounds of pounding on that steel from the bolt, it will oval out the area where the pins go through on the receiver. Also, the plastic recoil buffers are much quieter. One other thing on the 10/22's trigger that is a quick fix/mod that is inexpensive. When you pull the trigger you squeeze back on a small spring with a plunger that goes back into the rear of the housing. Take that spring out and clean it real good with alcohol, remove excess paint from the steel plunger part and polish real good. Also dab a touch of gun grease back into the hole where the spring goes. Before you put the spring back in, cut off one coil with the dikes. I swear you will like the trigger pull better! If you want a better trigger pull, the secret is in the polishing of the hammer to sear contact. Don't mess with the spring that goes under the sear as that will negatively affect the safety and other than some cleaning/polishing of the sear, nothing more is needed there. What I find is that the hammer where the sear contacts Ruger does not clean off the paint/finish whatever and if you do + a bit of polishing, your trigger pull will be much better.

I get my factory triggers to just under 3# by just some tlc/polishing & cleaning. To make these rifles cheaper, Ruger cannot spend the time on the details. Could make the trigger pulls less if I wanted, but that would mean removing more material than I am willing + it is not need for just a good hunting trigger. Trust me it is way better than the 8# pull from the factory. A lot of accuracy is lost will a heavy pull like that!
