Track of the Wolf is where I'd start if I was looking.

Muzzleloader Builder's Supply has L&R and their own imported brand.

The best one I have found is the Pedersoli single set used in their pistols.  You used to be able to get them for a reasonable price but they want so much for them now that they are not worth the expense.

Don't rightly know where to get one presently, but they are my preference when it comes to set triggers.

I would like to install one on my current "best" riflegun and have been thinking about the best place "where to get it" me own self!

Thanks to all, I've sent an email to builders supply with pics of my trigger , it would appear it's an uncommon lock though . Made by W.C. Cain ?
In the mean time I'll see what I can do to "stone" the tumbler and lighten the pull.

Received a email back from muzzleloadersbuilders supply, They have oane that should fit , but is narrower, and they have brass shim to inlay on either side of it. Looks like a job for the winter.
