I had the opportunity to shoot a Savage with an Accu-trigger a few times. To be honest I didn't like the trigger at first it takes a little getting use to. I shot the same gun (my nephews) the fourth time a couple of weeks ago and decided toorder one last week. I would've never guessed I'd own a Savage, but they are making a good product for the money right now. So if the Savage feels good and fits you right my vote is for Savage. You may also want to consider Tikka and the Marlin XL7. IMO all three of these manufactures make good guns for the money. Which is very Reasonable. I hope I was some help Good Luck.
