I had the same problem with my new model 10 Predator Max-1 a few years ago. ANY side pressure applied to the trigger would trip the trigger (but not fire it because the blade wasn't engaged). It would have to be recocked by lifting the bolt handle. Adjusting the trigger to a heavier pull weight helped but did not solve the problem. I have 3 Savages with AccuTriggers and the other 2 do NOT do this.
"Learning how to correctly pull an AccuTrigger" is a BS solution. Triggers are NOT supposed to malfunction if you pull slightly diagonally instead of perfectly straight to the rear. Imagine any hunting or field situation where you engage the accu-blade and begin pulling the trigger back, but instead of a bang you get a click because your field position required you to have a slightly imperfect trigger pull that was 15 degrees to one side instead of perfectly straight to the rear. That's not a "design feature". That's a trigger that don't work. No thanks.
I junked that problem AccuTrigger and replaced it with a RifleBasix, which is a better trigger anyways. Now when I pull the trigger, it fires like any gun is supposed to.
My 2 other AccuTriggers have NEVER had this issue and work perfectly even on the lightest settings.
