Re: Removing Savage Accutrigger?
It is stupidly easy. Remove the bolt, remove one pin, it will slide out easily. Pull the trigger off the receiver. Slide the safety to the rear, pull the bottom off, slide the top part of safety off the receiver. That's all there is to it.

It's a bit older, was a "stagger feed" before I converted to CDI DBM. Accutrigger, obviously.

Re: Removing Savage Accutrigger?
I have removed them, replaced them, pretty much did everything possible to them. Very easy to work with all models. Toughest part is getting the bolt release spring back in but that is still fairly easy. I always pulled the trigger before bedding, and fill in the gaps with clay. Although, if you are properly bedding a Savage there should be any epoxy that makes it back that far anyway. Better safe than sorry though.

Re: Removing Savage Accutrigger?
I'm assuming you meant to say "shouldn't" about epoxy getting as far back as you said? Is that because you don't want to bed the tang?
