I'm curious to hear what your dealer will give you in trade for your 770. It has taken a fairly sound trashing online. It may be considerably less than you'd expect (I hope not).
If your a fan of the Savage, you may consider the Stevens Model 200 - essentially an entry level synthetic stock Savage without the Accutrigger at a very reasonable price. Note, however, that the Accutrigger addressed long standing complaints with the older Savage models' triggers. Accordingly, the Stevens 200's trigger is probably nothing special, but other aspects of the gun should be an improvement over the 770. Check some online reviews. They're quite favorable for the cost. Personally, I'd spend the extra bucks for a good trigger. Life's too short to shoot a gun with a lousy trigger.
