Accutrigger Adjustment on New Style 111...HELP! Please!

[brangus1111]

Hey everyone, Im a brand new here so i'll try to make this as clear as I can without pics. I just bought a new Savage model 111 FCNS 30-06. I sat down to try and adjust the accutrigger (with the help of the manual) and ran into some trouble. When I was attempting to remove the assembly from the stock, I couldn't get to the screw in front of the trigger guard. It's covered by the bolt release button and cannot figure out how to get it and didn't want to continue without asking someone who knew more than I. Has anyone had this same problem with the new models? Please help,...thanks!

The button can only be pushed in after releasing the trigger (fired position).

yea, dry fire it, then remove the bolt. You should now be able to depress the buttom and have room to get to it.

You don't have to dry fire if you don't want to, although it doesn't hurt anything. You can hold the trigger back and lower to bolt at the same time and it will close without being cocked allowing you to depress the bolt release.
