I also put on a #100664 Savage 10/110 stainless steel trigger guard from Boyds. I installed a RIFLE BASIX INC. SAV-1 Rifle Basix Savage Trigger SAV-1 (Centerfire) adj from 14oz to 3 lbs. (may get the SAV-2, but we'll see) I ground down, threaded and blued the original bolt handle and added a tactical knob.

Picked up some RL26, already had H4350 , Norma MRP and URP to use in the Creed.
