Re: Drop in trigger to replace Savage Accutrigger?
Riflebasix I think makes a replacement for the accutrigger guns..
Or you can mod it yourself for an even lighter pull - instructions on the RFC forums.

The folks at RFC have done such a good job explaining how to lighten the trigger pull on the accutrigger. I have decided not to buy a aftermarket trigger after working over the factory triggers on my MKII's.

But the accutrigger is such a nice unit for a stock trigger.
Ah well, each to their own i guess

Yeah, there are some that think you have to have a 2oz trigger or similar in order to be able to shoot good groups.
Personally, I think a clean breaking consistent trigger is more important than a featherweight one....

These are 1 1/4 - 4 lbs. I shot a friends Savage 17hmr the other day at the range and it felt very heavy, so I could see why you would want to swap triggers. As stated by Kansas45, I believe you can find info about making the factory trigger lighter and smoother at rimfire central. Good luck!

Well, it's time for me to eat my words. The worked over Accu-Trigger in my Savage MKII FV still works real good. I bought a MKII TRR, worked on the trigger & can't make it as good as the one in the FV. So I bought a Rifle Basix & installed it in the TRR. This thing is so good that I am ordering one for the FV & the new MKII TR 17 HMR. One interesting note is that the Accu-Trigger that came in the 17 is at least as good, if not better than the worked over trigger in the FV. Still though, in MHO the RB wins hands down.

Re: Drop in trigger to replace Savage Accutrigger?
Thats what i have heard.
I think my accu-trigger is ok. Its not the best, but for a short range varmint gun its perfectly adequate.
I cant see myself shooting anything past 200 yards because the round just isnt suitable.
Still... I shoot centrefire out to 600 yards and im happy with 3.5lb crappy trigger on my AICS. The only time i would change a trigger is if it were broke or inconsistant.
That being said I wouldnt mind a nice new trigger

Re: Drop in trigger to replace Savage Accutrigger?
Hmmmm....... One of my accutriggers on F/TR breaks like a fine glass at 6 oz. Insanely light but safe. Can't even imagine having anything better than this unit. Rimfire accutriggers are not as refined but very very decent.
