OldTimerTrigers on Stevens 200
Questions two,
Is it possible to adjust the triger on the new stevens 200 line of rifles as to the lb pull?
If so how?
I just bought one in 3006 for a bad weather rifle.

krakyHey Old Timer.....the savage 200 trigger is the same as the "pre accutrigger" that savage used for years. I bought one last year in a 300 win mag and it's a good shooter but it does kick like a mule. I did a search on google and found this article quickly. I think the guts of your trigger will "mirror" whats in the article. I played with my trigger a bit but think I'll have someone a little more qualified do the final tuning.

Just some info. When reworking and adjusting for reduced trigger pull it is possible to to over adjust the return spring screw so that you will get return to cock in the horizontal but not in the verticle.Gravity does it in the horizontal. I'll give you one guess how I know.The four that I just did work real nice for hunting rifle triggers.
