Savage 110 Trigger Change to Accu-Trigger

[Sidewinder]

Has anyone changed the regular trigger out and installed an Accu-Trigger on an older (flat back receiver-long action) Savage Model 110? Is it possible, and cost wise feasible? I know the late model 110s have the Accu-Trigger, and that they have the round back receivers, but don't know if the inside of the receiver/trigger interface was changed. If this would work, what can an Accu-Trigger assembly be bought for?

It may not be financially feasible. I'm just asking you guys for your opinions. What do you think? Is it worth it... or should I just leave it alone? Thanks guys.

Savage's AccuTrigger

The short answer is no. The receiver is different and Savage won't sell you the trigger.

It can be done but it is a HUGE pain in the butt. And realistically a factory 3 screw can be adjusted to give similar results.

You are better served getting a Sharp Shooter Supply Competition trigger. But if you decide to get the trigger buy it from a distributor because if you order direct you could be waiting months for it. Brownells carries them and they are the best drop in trigger for a Savage. It is a completely new 3 lever design not a reworked factory trigger like the Timeny's, Rifle Basix or any of the others.

I have one of the Competition triggers and it is absolutely amazing for the money. You can adjust pull weight, pre travel as well as over travel. It is easy to install and adjust. It stays consistnet over time as well. I have had mine for at least 4 years and it works as well today as the day I installed it.
