Default RE: Do I want accutrigger?

The Accu-trigger is a great system, and if you get a Savage you most definately want one with the accutrigger. The accutrigger has been standard for all centerfire Savage rifles for a couple years at least, so if you find a Savage CF rifle w/o the accutrigger, it's at least 3 or 4 years old. Savage also makes the Stevens brand rifles, which are similar but lack the accutrigger. I have 2 Savage rifles, an 111 .30-06 and a 10ML-II muzzleloader. Both have Accutriggers and I love the trigger on both. Adjusting the trigger is a simple one-screw procedure that you can do w/o voiding the warrantee. Both of mine are set at 2.5lbs and break clean with no perceptable creep. As far as the trigger safety, if you haven't shot a gun with one before (like a Glock or Springfield XD), it might feel a bit strange at first, but the pull weight of the trigger safety is probably 1/2 lb at most, and once you touch the trigger itself, you wont even know it's there.
