Reviews & Ratings for Timney Triggers Savage Accutrigger Trigger — 21 reviews — Page 1

I already have a model 12 with a Tiney 638 trigger and it works pretty good so I figured I would try another one. After installing it I couldn’t get the bolt to go in. I called Tim left a message for them to call me back, they never called me back that day the next morning I called several times to finally get a woman who kept me on the phone for an hour and 15 minutes, but couldn’t get me fixed up. It seems that Customer Service is not what it used to be a few years ago for Timney.I made a quick phone call to Jard They answered the phone ordered the trigger. Got it installed. I’m happy now. Shouldn’t have to call a company eight times to get someone to answer the phone. They won’t get my hard earned money anymore .Sorry Timney

Bought another trigger for my savage lrp and had a issue getting it adjusted and the safety working properly.Called Timney and had to leave a message for a call back.1 1/2 hours later i called again and the message said they were now closed.Maybe i will spend my hard earned money on a JARD next time!

Works as it should, a great improvement imo! Installation is easy and straightforward. ‘A clean crisp break every time with not accutrigger blade to mess with.

If you own a Savage rifle with the accutrigger on a model 10 bolt action rifle, this is the replacement trigger to use.
It is not the trigger for the A17 model rifles.
If you try to set the trigger pull weight to minimum with a accutrigger, a problem can arise where the firing pin gets blocked when the trigger is pulled. The interposer will not allow the firing pin to hit the primer with enough force for the round to go off. This is indicated by a mark on the primer (small dimple). This has happened with several different shooters using my rifles.
The Timney replacement works very well, BUT you may have to set the sear engagement screw for more engagement of the sear. This is necessary if with the safety fully engaged, the trigger is not fully locked out.
I have replaced the Savage accutrigger with the Timney trigger on all of my Savage models 10-12 with great success (8 rifles).
Very easy to install.

Timney makes great triggers. However, this trigger has no over-travel adjustment. For the Savage Model 110, make sure you watch their installation video. There's reference to a shim washer that helps. The written instructions do not mention using this shim washer. I found a mm washer at Ace Hardware.
But for the Savage AccusStock, the Timney pull weight set screw might touch the rear trigger guard screw internally and/or the plastic boss that the screw goes into. The screw can be shortened about 1/8" and the boss relieved with a large drill bit.

Very good replacement trigger. Crisp , clean , nice adjustable pull weight. Easy to install.

Watch out! Ordered 631 not knowing any better, couldn’t get it to work properly, even watching videos. Noticed video trigger different from mine, Optics Planet exchanged for correct one and I lived happily ever after. Install super easy and learned more about this weapon during install.

The Accu-trigger is a good trigger in most cases, but in some cases they are junk. (personal experience)
If you have one of the junky ones that like's to "lock up/go into safe mode" "Because you PULL the trigger wrong" (per Savage Arms) This is a good replacement for that. As long as you don't try getting crazy with low low pull weight this trigger does great. Crisp and consistent. Easy to install. It gives you the old world(Just a trigger no trigger safety) clean trigger shoe.
Just my opinion. If you have a good Accu-trigger and can live with the safety blade in the middle then stay with that. The actual break is close to the same. Timney is just cleaner without the "Accu-" blade.

Very easy to install and setup to your preferred trigger pull. This is a great improvement to the standard savage accutrigger. I converted all of my 110's to this setup. I would highly recommend thisbtrigger

Change the trigger on my 308 savage axis. installed Timney trigger and adjusted trigger pressure works great.
