How do I remove the (accutrigger) trigger assembly from the action? It appears there is just one pin to remove. Is the spring around that pin any trouble to get back right? I'm rebarreling my rifle and need to remove it so I can use an action wrench to hold so I can torque the barrel nut.
Thanks, Justin
Why do you need to remove it to use an action wrench which goes on the front of the receiver? Bolt it to the rear and you will twist the hell out of it. To answer your question yes it’s simple to get that spring back in on the pin, just needs a shove from a punch or the like to fold it in far enough for the trigger pin to get through the hole.

I have a Wheeler wrench.

That’s not an action wrench those are both barrel nut wrenches. One for the new style smooth nuts and the other for the more favorable “splined” nuts. Click the following link to a forum sponsor and scroll down to NSS Action Wrench. That’s what you want, or a barrel vice if that’s more your style. Either will work well when used properly. There’s varying options of both tools but I will recommend the NSS product and James Kessler if you are looking for suggestions. My apologies if I’m not understanding your intentions, just don’t want to see you twist your action all up.

Justin, The pretzel comment from Jim is telling you that you are embarking on a adventure that could have you throwing your Savage in the trash. Before you do anything watch some Youtube videos until you are sure of every step. If you can get someone experienced to help you. You would not be the first person who has had to trash an action by applying torque in the wrong location.
I understand the wrench was for smooth barrel nuts. The plan was to remove the trigger and slide the wrench to the front of the action, up near the barrel nut, this way the action can't be tweaked. Wouldn't that be the same as using the NSS action wrench? I've seen a couple videos on youtube where it was used this way.
Thanks, Justin
It's all done and shooting, the smooth nut barrel wrench worked fine, all I needed it for was to hold while the barrel nut was being torqued.
Thanks for the help.
