[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 907815, member: 35183"] Lets get a little perspective: Would you be able to install your own barrel ? You would need an action wrench, barrel nut wrench and a go gauge and a piece of paper. Is there any reason you have to believe that trueing and timing your action would bring you any special benefit ? Specifically, is the extraction of brass from the chamber difficult ? Is the bolt lift uncomfortably heavy ? Do you think that the firing pin is drawn way too far back compared to what is needed to reset the trigger ? If you have no complaints regarding these things now, how would you be able to judge if any gunsmith actually did any of the work you would pay for ? I own several savage 10.s, 110's, 12, and a model 112 and I'm not sure that I have any complaints on any of the above points. If I was going to do anything, I would have a smith order target accutriggers for all of mine which do not have them, and then fit those myself. Thats about the biggest improvement I could make. Possibly also replace the sears that have some wear on them. Thee are plenty of opinionated people out there with their own bias. Gunsmiths love the Remington, because so many people buy them and often they shoot like crap, so they have a nice big captive market who bring in their rifles for trigger jobs, outright replacement, trueing, timing etc. Replacing the generally terrible barrels (which is very labor intensive + $). So Remington is the cash cow for these people and there is really not a lot for them to do to a Savage. They can't really charge $300 to swap a barrel, because someone would figure out that it was an unjustified ripoff. But with a Remington, its all good. You got the right and intended message. Find someone else to work with, or better still, do it yourself and watch a few Youtube videos. [/QUOTE]
