The piano wire trick is a must on the 110/Stevens 200. I also polished the seat surfaces (polish it don't file it). It break s clean at 2lbs, not gritty or scratchy. I think some Savages triggers are like AR-15 triggers in that aspect. It isn't as buttery smooth as my worked over Weatherby trigger but a must if one doesn't want to spend a $100 right away and you don't have to be a gunsmith to do it. Always function test to make sure it can't slam fire. I don't think I'll even upgrade one of them (tactical setup) as its such a non issue.
