I just found this place, and would like to give info on what I have ndone to my Edge/Axis chambered in 308. My trigger pull out of the box was 9.5 pounds, way too heavy. I had put bipods on it. I was stunned by the kick it had. It would raise the bipod 4 to 6 inches off the table when fired. Even my nephew who was a machine gunner in the Marines said it had a nasty kick, and insaine trigger. Calling Savage was a waste of time. They said the accuetrigger will not fit, and any mods will void warranty. This even included removing part of the plastic stock where it rubbed the barrel. It's supposed to be free floating. The plastic stock appeared to have warped after it came out of the injunction mold, before it had fully cooled. Savage said they would not replace the stock, and any mods would void the warranty, again. I voided the warranty. I'm a machinist, so I polished the faces on the trigger and sear. Pull is about 4.5 pounds. Still jumping off the table though. Since I only target shoot, I only have to carry it from the car to the bench. I pulled the buttcap, and barrel. I then mixed epoxy and #9 lead shot, and filled the openings in the foregrip, and butt of the stock. It now weighs 17.8 pounds, and stays on the table. That is very close to the weight of the M40A5 Marine Scout Sniper Rifle (.308). Then I found the muzzle drop on trigger pull due to the flex of the wrist of the stock. To fix this, I drilled 2 holes back into the stock from the back of the where the trigger guard fits. I then formed 2 pieces of 3/16 diameter steel rod to slide into the stock, and lay along the stock to the front of the mag well. The sides of the trigger guard were relieved or inletted to hold the rods. I then used the Loctite metal/concrete epoxy to bond the trigger hard in place. This stiffened up the wrist a large amount. It still flexes, but it is now less than 1/4 MOA of movement. I also ground away part of the foregrip to allow the barrel to float. The flex there also helped the rifle to jump when fired, but the lead helps keep it under control. My next step is to fit it with a muzzle break. This will allow me to adjust out the remaining rise, and the tendency to snap to the left when fired. With the muzzle break, it will be a kitten to fire. It all ready is taimer than my youngest nephew's .270, and my brother's 25-06. I hope this helps any of you that are fighting Savages poor stock and trigger. I am happy with the barrel and action. I have shot several sub-MOA groups. I will probably change the spring as given in the thread, and will run David Tubb's Final Finish rounds through it next time I go to shoot.
