Thanks Winnie. Looked up the SAV2, but I don't really want to shell out a bunch of money on a trigger. I'll just being using it for hunting, so do you have any recommendation altering the current trigger. I just want to make it a little crisper. I'd rather spend the money on optics/mounts, than a fancy trigger.

I managed to shoot it well but have to admit, the hardest was the terrible trigger pull, it was at least 6 lbs. The current trigger was set as low ass 1.5 lbs but increased and maintained it at 2.5-3 lbs for hunting.
nice speed goat, feenix. Thanks for sharing. I actually had time to tinker with it tonight. After adjusting trigger, I found that the trigger weight was turn way up. I turned it down and I have a MUCH crisper pull now. Very pleased. Going to strip the stock down and refinish it a little darker and put some nice optics on it. I'll post pictures of the progress when I'm finished. Thanks guys.
Thanks! For some reason, I was not able to adjust the factory to a lower trigger pull safely but I was successful with the factory trigger off my Savage 110 to 2.5 lbs ... go figure.
I'm glad you were able to adjust yours to a more acceptable pull. Good luck and enjoy!
