Many Savages do not have a #2 Screw aka (Three Screw Trigger)

WBM has it correct. Be careful with the #2. The screw is actually pushing against the bottom edge of the sear, which is DECREASING the amount of travel.(engagement) I recommend researching trigger systems thoroughly before adjusting & firing. Incorrect adjustment of the Sear engagement screw can lead to trigger actuation on closing the bolt with authority, bumping the rifle...even on closing the bolt lightly.
It’s wise to truly understand what’s going on before playing around with.
