Has anyone had a good experience with any of the Savage replacement triggers?
Which of them worked best for you?
Thanks.

huffmaniteI had good results on a Stevens 200 7mm08 and a Savage Edge .223, just by replacing the trigger springs with ones I got and altered from a local hardware store and then polishing the contact metal on trigger and trigger sear. Gent I shoot with replaced the accutrigger on his Savage 12 308 with a Rifle Basix trigger, which he thinks is better than the factory trigger.

eyemanThe Rifle Basix works well in my preAccutriger Savage..I don't know about the replacements on the Accutriger models.

tiggertateI have a Canjar single-set trigger on an older 112 that I like a lot. Don't know it they are still available, though.

JcchartboyI have the SAV-2 on one gun, I previously had the Timney on another, and I installed accutriggers on my non-accutrigger model guns as well.
By far the best is the Rifle Basix SAV-2.

Mike in MichiganI have installed several Rifle Basix triggers on the various caliber rifles of ONE CUSTOMER. He loves them. Easy to install, easy to adjust.
