Light touch
I purchased an old Frankenstein Savage model 112 that started life as a .3006 The barrel and chamber were replaced with a 223. This trigger was installed when I bought it and it was adjusted way too light sometimes upon closing the bolt it would fire. I just adjusted it slightly, It won't fire on closing the bolt but you breathe on that thing and it's going to go off, I adjusted it so there's just ever so slightly a bit of take-up before it breaks. I like it.
Great aftermarket Trigger
This is the 3rd Savage rifle I have installed this model trigger on. These are great, well designed and easily installed if you follow the directions. I really love this trigger.
Phenomenal Trigger. Simple install.
The SAV-2 is a fantastic trigger! It does go WAY down, if you replace the white spring with the red one (again, simple to do). I called RB in Charlotte, NC and someone actually answered the phone. Amazing; no one does that anymore:) Theyre a great company. Absolutely love Brownells! Their service and speed of getting the package shipped was stellar, as usual!
Rifle basix 2
This is a very excellent choice of trigger for the savage rifles, I have used a lot of different triggers through the years and this one by far has exceeded all of them. It's easy to install just follow the instructions and is very SAFE down to under a pound
Excellent trigger
Replaced Sharp Shooter Supply triggers with this one. Wise choice. Even at 6oz on my f class rifle, there are no slam fires during bolt closing, gives crisp feel and nice let-off. This trigger is on a 12 BVSS (223), 10FP (308), 110FCP (338 Lapua) and Model 12BR (6BR). All work superb. This is how much I appreciate a good trigger. Not difficult to install provided you follow instructions.
Great upgrade
Works great! Follow the instructions, and all will go well. When you install this trigger do it right for saftey.
One Outstanding Trigger
This trigger went on my Savage Model 10 LE, H-S Prec bull barrel 308 rifle replacing the Accutrigger. The stock trigger adjustment spring was bent by the former owner and it could not be adjusted any less than 2pd-11oz. The replacement was easy to install and with the included DVD video instructions, made it all that more easier. The trigger came pre-assembled so the time it took to install was cut down a lot. In the video, they gave a warning about very light trigger pull weights, please comprehend that warning. Having a very light trigger weight on mine kept firing when I closed the bolt. I have it now set to an average weight of 14.4 ~ 15.1 oz. with no accidental firing. I agree with Rifle Basix on trying to set the trigger pull too low, it is a dangerous practice. Be safe, shoot hard, shoot often, have fun!
Great Trigger
Crisp, Safe, easy to install and adjust. I have installed two of these in my guns. The instructions were easy to follow. The range of adjustment is huge. The trigger came set at 4oz. I set one to 1lb. for my wife. Great trigger!
The trigger Savage should have made.
Easy to install, easy to adjust, easy to use. I'm a Savage fan, and I'm always on the lookout for better gear for my rifles than what the factory offers....and I do not like the Accutrigger, nor the newer Accutarget trigger. When Rifle Basix announced the Sav-2 trigger years ago, I immediately ordered one for my 110FP in .308. It took less than 15 minutes to install, and perhaps another 10 to safely fine tune it to the advertised 4oz pull. Shooting it is a dream. No take-up, and the tiniest bit of over-travel after a perfect break. There is no thinking about the shot, simply concentrate on the crosshairs and wish the trigger to go....and bang! No disappointments.
Seems to be Well Built
When I installed the trigger, I was impressed with the fit and function. Unfortunately the trigger will not fit Accu-Trigger model gun if your bolt release is in the front of your trigger guard. Didn't realize that until I was trying to put the action back in the stock... I would recommend this to anyone with the standard trigger guard and bolt release on the right side of the receiver.
