Title: Savage model 110 question
Post by: Kowsrule30 on September 30, 2012, 01:03:08 PM: I have a Savage Model 110 in 243 Win.... This is probably a rookie question but have never done it to this gun so please excuse me.... I have it apart for cleaning... It's been a while.... I've had the gun since I was 11.... And it finally dawned on me I would like to lighten the trigger pull..... There are 3 little allen head screws.... I don't which to tighten or loosen... :dunno: Thanks...

This may help.
