I'm not saying you can't do it because I don't know your skill set or background. When it comes to playing with triggers changing a spring is one thing. Just remember a trigger is the largest part of a safe rifle. A trigger done incorrectly can even cause a rifle to fire while the safety is engaged. I personally prefer to pick up an aftermarket trigger and follow the instructions to set it the way I want it. I ussualy lighten it all the down until it fails then work up until I can mess with it with no failures no matter how bad I slam the rifle around or how hard I squeeze the trigger with the safety engaged. I like a light 1-1.5lbs trigger with no slop and very little overtravel. Just a nice clean break and that's it. I was able to accomplish this on my Axis with a Rifle Basix SAV-1 and I'm going to install a SSS Competition trigger on my my 110 Build. It's safe and they were designed by Gunsmiths.
If you want to tinker with it that is fine, that is what we all love about our Savages. Whatever you choose make sure it is 100% safe for you and anyone who may be around you when using the firearm.
