Is that the one with the heavy barral? If so I have it in 223 remington. Nice tight groups. Only thing I hate is the triger it only likes the heavy setting. If I lighten it the releases the hammer as I shut the bolt. So I just keep it at 4 to 6 pound range. So I was thinking of buying the tinny triger. I thinks thats the name.

My brother has one.  After shooting it I was decided on what my next rifle was going to be.  Very accurate, and heavy enough with a .223 bullet it feels like you're shooting a .22 LR.  Great trigger.

I would see what Savage will do for you about the trigger.

There's something wrong there. I run all of my Accu-Triggers  at minimum pull weight (including 2 target triggers set at about 6oz) and I've never had an issue that wasn't entirely my fault.
