Savage Rifles
 

I have seen and shot shot some of the recently made Savage rifles. They ain't much to look at, but they are good performers and the price is right.

So, my question is this.........Are there suppliers where you can buy aftermarket parts to replace some of the cheap plastic parts on Savage guns? I really don't care for plastic trigger guards, etc.

Yes you can get an aftermarket trigger guard. I ordered mine from Brownells.

Clint, I bought a Savage model 110 varmit rifle in 7mm Remmag and was surprised by the out of box accuracy. I saw some replacement stocks in a Cabellos magazine and they offer one for the heavy barreled models. What model do you have that has a plastic trigger gaurd? Does anyone have any info on the Bell and Carson replacement stocks? Are they a good investment? Are their other stock makers that have stocks for the Savage heavy barreled rifles?

Shot my new 12fvss yesterday and it's a great gun. 1/2 moa with factory loads. Accu-trigger is awesome. Would recomend any savage to everyone. :D

RE: Savage Rifles
 

Starting this year Savage will be putting the accu-trigger on most all of their hunting rifles as wellas the tactical and Varmit. Great rifles. My kind of company.:)

RE: Savage Rifles
 

i have two and am very happy with them. they shoot well with little or no work to them

RE: Savage Rifles
 

Could you buy a new accutrigger and install it on an older model 110?

RE: Savage Rifles
 

I think they are not replaceable for the regular savages that come without them.If they did I would have one on my 50 cal.
I have 2 savage rifles a 223 bull barrel and a muzzle loader. the muzzleloader shoots some very good groups.as good as some reg rifles.Will probably get a new one with the accu trigger soon

I have two Savages. A 110 in .243, and an 11G in .308

Both are very accurate with factory ammo. I too do not like the plastic trigger guards, but I guess that's what I get for the money. I wasn't aware that Brownell's had replacements. I am sure going to check them out.

I have 5 Savage guns,1 ,striker in 223, 3 long guns in 223, and 1 ,7mm mag,they all shoot great,but did replace the triggers with a timmy,and you can't find a better shooting gun, Savage keep up the good work!!

RE: Savage Rifles
 

As of the last time I enquired, they were not planning on releasing it as an aftermarket. It would take some serious smithing, something about the safty.

Here's a pic of mine and the groups I shot on Thursday.

RE: Savage Rifles
 

Great looking groups.

RE: Savage Rifles
 

Thank's. Thats with factory loads. I'm running some cases now and plan to load up a few tonight. I've got IMR 4064, Varget, and H380 to try out. Loading 52gr BTMHP and 55gr FMJBT. About 125 cases. Sounds like alot of work at the range coming up:D

RE: Savage Rifles
 

I have to say I am quite pleased with my savage. 1 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards. The scope that came with it let me down but life goes on. I have the older style trigger. maybe someday I'll put an aftermarket trigger on it but for right now it suits me fine.

I had the same problem with the old 22-250 I had. The scope was a simons and a POS. Would not hold a zero. rescoped it and was a good shooter. Put the original back on it when I traded it.

RE: Savage Rifles
 

I bought my savage from a pawn shop for $183.00 model 110. I took it to the range an shot it was luck to get 8 inch groups. I got rid of the cheap Bushnell Scope that had an adjustable turret and put a redfield on it. Now I hold groups to an inch or better with custom loaded ammo.

RE: Savage Rifles
 

I love my 110 in .243 it shoots better then I can hold.
I would recommend Savage to anyone.
