I can't figure it out. Savage Elite Precision bolt head disassembly. There's no hex bolt.... Pic enclosed

this has really got me. Every Savage bolt I've taken apart has a ex bolt at the end that lets you remove the guts. This Elite Precision only has a small button. No slot, no hex...nothing. How does this come apart? Here's a pic I've taken. If it's something simple I'll be very pleased to feel stupid.

Never mind, I'm dumb. You just de-cock it and it reveal the hex...

Glad I'm not the only one who has done this. My first Savage (Model 10 Trophy Hunter) I had this same question until like you, I decocked it and the light bulb went off. :D

Me 3. But I knew it was there before so I just kept looking. Now if I can just keep the damn thing on there now that it's been loosened.

Looks like the same way an Axis bolt is disassembled.

Are you installing a bolt lift kit??

I would also love to know, I just picked up an elite precision in 6.5 and my bolt lift is measuring 9 lbs. on my trigger scale. I would would love to see that reduced some.
