    Default Timney vs Accutrigger

    Any real advantage or gains reached by upgrading from Accutrigger to Timney? Worth the $130?

    Accutriggers are nice, but I’m yet to find anyone who has regretted a timney. They are great triggers for the money

    IMO yes, I hated the blade in the Accutrigger. I think my PC breaks cleaner and shoots a fraction better.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Timney is hands down a better trigger. Accu triggers are good triggers but they aren't a timney. There is also a huge variance between. Accu triggers even after you adjust them some are still way better/worse than others

    I'd safety check any after-market Savage trigger. I like the idea, but I was shown years ago how you could take a cocked Savage with the factory trigger, give the rear receiver ring a decent rap with something like a brass hammer (safety on), and it would fire the mechanism. Make sure an aftermarket one doesn't do the same. May take some tweaking of sear engagement.

    I would definitely take a timney or rifle basix over a factory accu trigger.

    It’s not safe to slam the bolt on any of my savages but you shouldn’t have it pointed anywhere else but down range. 2 of them do not even have safeties. That is just how I have them set not because it’s an aftermarket trigger.

    I’ve see a lot of the accu triggers dis engage when the safety blade was pulled to one side or the other.

    I've had more than 6 Timney's in Rem 700's, where is an entire new trigger group / mechanism - the Accutrigger replacement from Timney appears to be a single component, hence my question.
    I went ahead & ordered it (Brownells was $18 less than Timney directly) - should arrive by the weekend.
    Thanks for the replies - that's why this place is great!
