[QUOTE="subsonic, post: 55823, member: 1482"] Can someone please post a picture of a Savage Accu-trigger long action with the action screws installed. I was talking to a local long range specialist and mentioned I was keen on building a long range hunting rig on a Savage 116FSS and he said they are crap the tangs are so weak you can bend them with your fingers. According to him the only action to use is the Remington 700. I asked what about the $270 ($150US) you need to spend blueprinting them. Again I was told rubbish you only need to face the action and they are perfect. As we do not have them in New Zealand (but importing is relatively cheap and feasible) I can't have a look at one to check his comments. I am intending to build a 6.5/284 or a 6.5/284 Shehane. Thanks guy's [/QUOTE]
