So I'm looking to by an inexpensive .22 plinker, the one that I'm thinking about in particular is the Savage Mark-IIF. The basic model with the synthetic stock and the standard barrel. Was also giving some thought to the Marlin 925 or 981T but I've heard good things about the accutrigger on the Savages.
Any thoughts anyone?

We've some issues with the Marlins, in there actions. While they are similar to the Savages, I'd take the Savage.
Actually... no... I'd save a few more bucks and spring for the CZ.

Ya I plan on getting a CZ 452 American 16 at some point that I can suppress, but for now for just plane old plinking I can't justify the price difference between a Savage and the CZ.

I tried that weird savage trigger today. Awesome. If that 22 has the same trigger, and it looks like it does, Id get it.

The Accutrigger really is a gimick. The silver bit is a safety catch. If it didn't have that catch - the accutrigger would be flat out dangerous. I don't like it. It's Savage's way of cheating to get a decent trigger, by having the sear sit on so little metal, instead of just cleaning up the metal that is there.
Just my opinion. But so many dude groove on the Accutriger... so I guess it's fine for most.
My Savage rifle... I specifically got the one I got - because it has a regular old trigger and not the Accutrigger.
