Looks like ther are a few out there. Anyone tried them? Results?

I've tried all of them, and they're all better than the factory 2-screw trigger, but some are not much of an improvement over the earlier Ruger 3-screw trigger (i.e. with adjustment for sear engagement).
The newest and about the only one available right now, is the Jard. I just got a rifle with one installed and it's very nice. For set triggers, I prefer the old Canjars over the Kepplinger, but both are good and it's a matter of personal taste and "looks".
The current 2-screw factory triggers can be worked to improve them "a little", but will never be as good as a truly adjustable trigger. For most hunting, they're probably fine, but most of my shooting is at targets, so I want a light, consistent let-off.

I have a Ruger #1 with a Canjar trigger, and it is great. I don't know if they are still available.

The Jards are pretty good and better than a 2-screw factory trigger. I think they are the only ones available right now, but if you can find a Canjar or Kepplinger you would be "set" (pun intended). The cost might be a little high as I remember when I got my last Kepplinger it was going for $300.00+.

Can an average person fit one? I have basic gun tools and have worked on aot of Ruger revolvers.

They (Jards) are not too hard to fit, just make sure to keep the parts you are removing in a safe place.
