A month ago I bought a new 116 (in .30-06) from savage-rifles.com and it is the AccuTrigger / AccuStock version. I called savage and found out that it was manufactured about 1.5 years ago (or so).

My "brand new" rifle has the wedge as described above, so it is the older version of the AccuStock. I don't know the lingo, but I've zeroed it at 100 yards and get, what I assume are, great groupings (less than 0.5" 3-shot groupings with cheap factory ammo). So I am not complaining about having the wedge, though I wished I would have known that the rifle was of the older design, but that is what you get with internet orders.

I don't think I'm going to mess with the trigger (make the pull a bit lighter) just because I'm worried about screwing up the AccuStock configuration.
