Savage arms

Just wondering if any of you have shot a new savage rifle lately? I recently bought one and love the new accu trigger that now comes factory. I gives me the opportunity to have a custom target trigger on a stock rifle. Iv'e never put a bunch of money into a gun but now am thinking of having custom triggers put into all of my hunting rifles. My accuracy has greatly increased and so has my confidence. please let me know if you feel the same way.

When I was 19, I did a guy in Laos with a rifle shot at a thousand yards in high wind. Maybe eight or even ten guys in the world could have made that shot.

Mel Gibson-Lethal Weapon. Get with the program man!

I've used your ATN scope. I liked it, but struggled with the eye relief...no different than any other scope in that regard, but I definitely liked it better than the one I used Elk Hunting this fall.

Hands down, the best mod to any rifle is customizing trigger pull. This is a must on all my rifles. Can generally get this done at any gun shop for a nominal fee. Lightening the trigger pull is an absolute must for long distance shooting. I wouldn't even consider taking a rifle elk hunting without this done. You need to have all the confidence in the world when shooting a trophy elk at 500+ yards in the high country.
