Reviews & Ratings for Rifle Basix Savage Arms Mark I/II & Model 93, Rimfires w/AccuTrigger SAV-RAT Trigger — 6 reviews — Page 1

Great Upgrade for Benchrest shooting....... easy to install, and easy to adjust........But be careful!!........ I've got my trigger set at about 1lb with Zero creep and if I shut my bolt real fast the gun will go off!! (Always make sure your barrel is pointed in a safe direction!!!!)....... I should add a half turn to the trigger pressure spring and back out the trigger creep setscrew adjustment a 1/2 turn............ For the record the manufacture recommends setting the trigger at 1 1/2 lbs minimum...... and NO Creep setscrew adjuster!!........ I did start as they suggested, but I like it better with the creep adjustment........... So far I made my adjustments, by removing the entire action out of the stock (Boyd's At-One)....... but I'm 90% I can get to the adjustments, by just removing the trigger guard

Easy install, hard to set safely. Directions are not great, Rifle Basics should have a video for setting the trigger. Be careful and ensure of proper sear engagement while setting the trigger.

If your shooting a Savage MKII and want a 1.5lb trigger pull, with a clean crisp break the "Rifle Basix SAV-RAT" Trigger is the ticket!........ Fairly easy to install, not to hard to adjust and when you hit the sweet spot....WOW!......Feels almost as good as a Anschutz!...... In my MKII the trigger had a little bit of side play so I add a very thin washer to one side...... your first adjustment will be the trigger pull spring, seems below one pound the sear doesn't engage 100% of the time...... I've got mine about 1.25lbs.......2nd adjustment sets the safety........ they tell you to start without the "Trigger Creep" setscrew....... but that's the best part!........ with that adjustment, you can set your trigger with "Zero" creep and a super clean break....... granted it's a $100 trigger in a $200 gun....... but it's like night and day......... for shooting squirrels not really necessary, but for ARA Benchrest shooting worth every penny!

I've been shooting a Savage MKII FV-SR in a Boyd's At-One Stock in ARA 22LR Benchrest shooting for the last couple of months........ since I'v upgraded the stock they put me in Outlaw vs Factory..... I'm way out classed, so I'm doing the best I can with a $300 rifle vs $1800!!........ Anyway after piller bedding the stock, and upgrading my scope (Vortex Venom 5-25X56) I swapped out the AccuTrigger (which I had cut the spring and had the pull weight down to 2lbs) to this Rifle Basix SAV-RAT trigger and set it at 1.25lbs trigger pull...... Excellent Upgrade for Competition....... it's not quite a Anschutz, but it's pretty darn good!....... As the directions suggested, I didn't install the set-screw to set the trigger creep, but now after shooting 50+ rounds at the range that will be my next "Tweek".......... if the trigger and firing pin sears were polished, I'm sure you could get a consistent clean break below 1 lbs......Very Nice upgrade for a Budget Rifle........BTW my best score is 2100 so far with SK Standard ammo........ as of this review I don't have a score with this trigger, because this last shoot was a charity shoot where the targets were coins in a "Show Me The Money" target

Replaced the Accu Trigger in my Savage MarkII FXP rifle to reduce the trigger pull weight. Installed easily & seemed to work fine on the bench. When I got to the range and tried to chamber a round, the rifle dry fired upon closing the bolt. This happened several times. Upon removing the barrel from the stock and closely inspecting the trigger, it was apparent the notch on the trigger wasn’t deep enough to adequately engage the seer.
I am attempting to use a diamond hone to slightly increase the depth of the trigger notch, but this should not be necessary if the trigger was correctly machined by Rifle Basiks.
