I went too big 5 tonight I checked out their savage 17 hmr. I like the wood model has a bull barrel going for 209.00 I noticed it doesn't have the accrue trigger I had the manager take the trigger lock off to make sure.The trigger is not split so its not adjustable right? WHY is that I thought they all had that trigger set up.

No, I don't think that model comes with the accu trigger. I will try to bring one tomorrow and you can see what a Rifle Basix sear will do for it.

I could have sworn that the wood models have an Accutrigger? They usually have a red stick near the trigger stating that it has the Accutrigger. Big 5 puts those Savages on sale for $199 if you want to wait and save $10

Your looking at last years model. According to the Savage website all 17's come with the Accu-Trigger. I would pass and get the newer model.

What rr762mmfmj said:All the new models come with Accutrigger.They are still selling the old model at the new model price

I just picked up left handed 93 witht the wood stock, bull barrel and Accutrigger for $200. They are out there; maybe Big 5 would order it for you?

The B % here in Citrus Heights won't order them. The just stock whatever the main office orders.db

[Cranky Farmer]

That bites. I'd look some where else.

[ShooterJohn]

Shoot-it, River City Gun Exchange up here in Sacramento will order them if they don't have them in stock. Their number is 916-428-0377 so you can call. They've got good prices on their stuff too.

Johnny Go see Dave @ Sierra guns on Carpenter Rd. ph 5441911. He's a good guy and will order whatever you want at a decent price and save driving too far.

[ShooterJohn]

Dale's probably right I don't know the shops in your area. So I'm sure that would be a better choice.

[bzzrd feedr]

John The only reason I brought it up is with gas at $3+ and having to make two trips one to buy and one to pickup from jail, plus the time it takes driving, saving a few bucks one way or the other is no big deal. Johnny you could try Bilson's in Turlock or there used to be a shop in Los Banos as an alternative. The shops will deal if you tell them you're going to go check out Big 5, even if you are bluffing. JMHO

[Shoot-it]

Hay thanks for your help guys I will check Serra out Bilsons I am sure they won't have a savage for 200 they mostly carry the higher end stuff like laminated stocks etc. I am in no hurry.........

I agree Dale, I just didn't know any of the stores in your area but knew the place I mentioned carried them. I agree whole heartedly with driving less and saving more. That translates into more ammo for John.

These fuel prices are INSANE! What are the reasons for it now?

I think the technical term is "BECAUSE THEY CAN!"

[Cranky Farmer]

This fuel price jump is nuts. I am seriously considering parking the diesel truck and buying something that is a little better on gas.

[joel1316]

They are "speculating" that fuel prices will reach $4-$5 a gallon in June!

[Cranky Farmer]

That's sick

[ShooterJohn]

That's sick

I thought "sick" meant cool? Am I behind the curve on these terms?

[Cranky Farmer]

You're not, I am. I still use "sick" and mean "bad" in the negative sense.
