Ruger model 77 trigger job

[Shuz]

I have a tang safety type Ruger 77 and I'd like to adjust the trigger. The little set screw that is supposed to be for weight of pull adjustment doesn't do anything that I can measure with my trigger pull gauge. Can anyone help? Thanks.

It has been years since I worked on mine, but I know I had to leave a little creep in it. The best trigger job on a tang safety 77 is an aftermarket trigger.

I, too, forget the details but I adjusted mine to about 2 lbs with the screws, no changes
in about 1976 and have never touched it since. Fine, reliable, creep-free trigger on the
tang safety Ruger 77, but only an example of one.
