Question About Accutrigger...

[Vartarg]

The accutrigger on my Savage 110 Elite seems to be “locked up”, for lack of a better phrase.

I’m attaching the photo....it appears to me that the sear is not catching on the slot in the release lever bar?

Here’s a photo...

Thanks for your help....

What’s that white thing that looks like it is preventing your release blade from going all the way back ?

The sear is where it should be if you have the bolt handle lifted. Does the sear slide down to the ledge if you close the bolt?

That is a the metal of the lever lifted as a tab. It just looks white from the reflection light. Doesn’t prevent the lever from travel. Is as it should be. Just a camera trick. LOL.


We need a little more info Vartarg... Like celltech said, it’s in position of open bolt. What heppens with bolt closed? When did this start? Have you had anything apart?

[Vartarg]

[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]I’ve had the bolt apart, but haven’t touch the trigger mechanism.

The first photo is with the bolt back, and second is with the bolt down....the sear moves about 1/8”...

Thanks,

When you close the bolt, the cocking piece pin is driven rearward by the cocking ramp and at full bolt open that pin is set on a divot at the top of the ramp holding the firing pin at full cock. At this point the firing pin is retracted with no protrusion. As you close the bolt(The cocking piece pin applies pressure to a part of the sear that protrudes into the bolt lug raceway) the cocking piece pin begins it's fall foreward while pushing the sear "lever" with it by function of the trigger hanger pin as a pivot, the bottom portion of the sear swings rearward and catches on the trigger.

To me, It looks as if the bolt is closed and the sear has not advanced rearward. If what I am seeing is true then for some reason the firing pin is possibly binding and not allowed to move freely.

This leads me to the question, have you disassemble the bolt recently? If so did you disassemble the firing pin?

[Vartarg]

Yes...I did disassemble the bolt, removed the firing pin assembly but did not the front lugs.
