[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2742993, member: 8394"] I've had issues with accutriggers giving up the ghost in extreme temp and at inopportune times. Have replaced both with aftermarket triggers and that solved that. Have a 116 in 375 ruger that had a bolt that must have the wrong threads on the back side as it dismantles its bolt over about 50 rounds. I just re do the thread locker preventatively lately, and that solved that. Conversely my 12 has been a tank, it's outlived several barrels in front of it and still has a fully functional accutrigger. Savage qc seems to have followed the ethos of whoever was in charge at the time. My belief is Coburn at the helm made the best guns they made. Savage serves a purpose, they shoot really accurately for price and often offer a very diverse range of configurations. They clearly serve a market segment and for good reason. Would I ever take a savage topped with a vortex on a once in a lifetime caribou hunt to the wilds of remote alaska.... well no probably not, swore never again. Or at least not without a spare.
