Savage has a "Gun Finder" where you check boxes for the items you want, and it shows you the models that fit.

Checking .223, black, accutrigger, accustock, no heavy barrel gets 5 results, only 2 of which are not stainless:

Looks like the options are the 12FCV which appears to have a medium weight barrel:

and the 11FCNS, which has a sporter weight barrel:

If you are primarily shooting at a range from the bench, get the heavier one.
