Intro: well first, font set at 3 but looks giant as I type. These old eyes can easily see what I'm typing.
- Kentucky is home.
- retired, started medicare Sept 1...
- wife and I love to hunt big game hunt especially out west.
- why I'm here.. good news, first Savage centerfire, brand new old stock 220, getting ready for a hunt on a military base. Bad news....fresh out of the box two days ago, action/safety/trigger working perfect. Set the trigger to 2 lbs., dropped in new Boyds stock, trigger and safety inoperable. If there's a search engine here, I'll see what i can find on similar issues.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your retirement. I'm not familiar with the Boyds stocks but it sounds like there needs to have some wood removed.

Welcome. Yes. You need to find where the wood is making contact with the Trigger or Sear/bolt release. And then remove material(wood) until the obstructed part(s) are free.
