Attempted to eliminate some creep on the rimfire Savages last night.
So we polished on the sear some.
Mine went from a very gritty and creepy 5-1/2 lb to 4-1/4 lb. with just a bit of stagey creep when you first start pulling. Marv's saw a similar improvement.
Better.
A problem is the pull is erratic. Every once an a while, it's still very gritty. Every once and a while it's a pound heavier. Every once and a while, it's both.
I think I want to try mounting an Accutrigger® to mine.
I found (I think) the part number at Savage: One Piece Trigger Assy RH AT E-Recvr - p/n 700027 for $47.
The main wrinkle is that it's a gunsmith only part, so you can't just order it online. I'll have to call them and ask how a shadetree mechanic could get hold of one.
PS, the serial number range for the Wal Mart 93F in .22 WMR appears to be 2592494 through 2619732.
