[QUOTE="Gregg C, post: 1388792, member: 103471"] I had heard a lot of good things about the accu trigger, so when my rifle was completed, I left it on, figured it would be ok. Right off, I hated it. Way to stiff for my taste. For some reason Savage refused to sell me any lighter springs, which got me to reading on line about this. Made my own spring. Nice and light, but next, I had a hang fire every third shot. Looked it over and discovered that my trigger technique (apparently I put side pressure on the trigger) caused the accu trigger blade to bind. So I gutted it. This seemed to work better, eliminating the delayed tripping I had been dealing with. Lately, although it's really a light trigger, I have been running out of breath before the break, and have to pull off and restart . Thought it might be too light. In fact, I am CERTAIN it is too light, since it will slam fire if I ain't gentle closing the bolt. Decided to he'll with it, what's available? Rifle Basix, and Timmney, in stock. Looked at Sharp Shooters, no online ordering, looked at the Jard, as well, but in the end, In 10min after posting this thread, I had four people chime in for a Timney. Also, it looks easier to install, and it is about $50 less. That would not have mattered, had Folks clamored for a Rifle Basix, instead. And as was stated earlier, they are both good, I m sure I will be happy. Thank you , everyone, for the input. Gregg [/QUOTE]
