I recently traded for a savage model 112 7mm STW it shoots great with some hand loads i just worked up but i have some questions maybe someone on here can help me with.
first i noticed that it has a blued action with a stainless barrel with a muzzle break that you can turn on and off. the fact that the barrel and action are different colors leads me to beleive that this barrel was put on after the fact but the previous owner had no idea about it. did savage ever do anything like this or is my hunch correct about it being a aftermarket barrel? it is stamped savage model 112 7mm STW.
the only complaint i have about the gun is the trigger is pretty heavy, it does not have a accu-trigger and im wonering if anyone knows of a site that could guide me through cleaning it up or if anyone has ever replaced a trigger on this model and would recommend a good brand. this is going to be my elk and bear gun so i dont need to put a jewell in it just bring it down a pound or so. will an accu-trigger drop in fairly easy?
if anyone could help me out with the history of these guns or answer one of my questions i would appreciate the info.
