As standard the Ruger trigger was fairly heavy but at least it was reasonably crisp.

Most rifles it doesn't take long to get a feel for how the trigger breaks, travel/pull weight etc. That Tikka I still had no idea after a couple of groups, the trigger pull for every shot was guesswork - it was a while ago now but I don't remember feeling the trigger break with my finger at all, no mechanical feel just keep pulling and when you pull hard enough it goes bang. Maybe some people like that but it really didn't float my boat.

Sorry OP, I know you didn't want this thread to turn into a fight with the Tikka fan club.

There is something drasticly wrong with his trigger and I strongly suggest he take it to a competent gunsmith for inspection as soon as possible.

I have used rugers and I have used Savages and I have used tikkas and Sakos.
If a Tikka or Sako trigger has any creep or grittyness or overtravel it has a problem or has been fucked with simple.
Accutrigger is ok Ruger is poos and neither are anywhere close to tikka/sako in trigger function.
Yes there is a savage accutrigger/ruger/tikka and Sako in my safe
