Last Month I bought the Savage FP110 .308,
yes I know the first thing I have heard to
replace the trigger assembly with an aftermarket
one, Just got done with reading the new issue
of Shooting Times (Feb2003) and on page 61
they are comparing bolt action rifles and it
says under the Savage 110 series rifles that
the trigger is adjustble, I'm not a gunsmith
so I get all of the paper work out that came
with the rifle and there is nothing about
an adjustable trigger, Does anyone know how is
this done ? I'll take it do a gunsmith if I have
to, but want to learn myself

Quoted: Yes, the Savage trigger is adjustable.  Info here: www.snipercountry.com/trigger.htm www.varminthunters.com/tech/savage110trigger.html Having said that, you will still probably not be very happy with the Savage trigger. I *strongly* urge you to replace it with the SharpShooter trigger.  Even Savage themselves use this trigger on the varmint version of their rifle.  It is absolutely the best trigger for Savage rifles. www.snipercountry.com/Savage_SSSCTrigger.htm www.varminthunters.com/sshooter/ -Troy

From what I was told yesterday, the new trigger from Savage won't be much of an improvement either.

Geometry is the same, the change is mainly for liability reasons to prevent slamfires when closing the bolt.


Strongly concur on the SharpShooter Supply trigger.
