sdkid,
Several other options to think about... Savage makes a Stevens model 200 which you should be able to get for around $300 or so brand new. I've never heard anything bad about them yet, and I'm considering one at the moment. Also, Marlin makes a bargain-priced bolt action rifle with a trigger similar to Savage's accutrigger (if you must have one...). The XL7 runs about $300 depending on local prices. If this is strictly a hunting rifle, I'd avoid the accu-trigger or knockoffs. It's a great target trigger, but I had one fail to fire on me once (got the trigger in the crook of my finger and failed to properly depress the trigger safety). I'll never have one on a hunting rifle. I know, I made the mistake. But that was target shooting - no problem. If it ever cost me a shot at a big buck, I'd never forgive myself for not taking the lesson to heart. Just get the standard trigger adjusted by a 'smith, and you'll have a great hunting rifle. JMHO gd
