Savage Mark II

Ive been doin some research and digging, Since im waiting on my 22rf suppressor i wanted a good bolt action 22LR.
I went ahead and ordered a Savage Mark II-FV. Read alot of good and no bad reviews.

Just cant wait to get it in and get it threaded.
Alot of guys are getting them down to the .2" groups at 50yds with very little mods.

Any you guys have one these rifles?

I have the Savage Mark II BTVS and love it. It is without a doubt the most accurate .22lr that I have and that was straight out of the box. IMO, you made a great choice with that purchase.

Don't have one but I want one! Love a savage

Now to figure out what scope i wanna put on it..

You may be looking for something a bit nicer, but I put the BSA Sweet 22 on mine and it's performed very well.

yea i was thinking a Mueller.. i got one my 308 and its more clear than any my other scopes.
I got some looking to do tho..

What's that scope on your 300. Millet??? That thing is awesome. I may be ditching my BSA stealth tactical for one of them.

Florence when I go home and Hattiesburg during the school week

It's my next .22. What model did you buy?

thats a millet LRS 6-25x56 its just a wee too big for the 22 haha.
Midway has the TRS on sale now for 279? I have 2 of them and thats the best scope for the money. It tracks straight and repeatable.

its just the mark ii-fv
heavy barrel free floated, accutrigger, with scope bases, 5rd mag

Sweet I want to shoot it when you get it in.

love my mark II, been knocking down tree rats all day with it, it'll shoot 20rnds into a hole covered by a dime at 75yds

Did you get it yet? If so how does it shoot?

I got it in, took the scope off my 308 and put it on there. Shot it some more at byram today. At 40yds it put 15 in the same hole. More i shot it the bigger the hole got cause i lost my aiming point.
So far i love it, went squirrel hunting saturday morning with it. Cci subsonics are pretty accurate and quiet. Hit one squirrel on the run at 20yds and dropped it drt. Furthest shot was bout 60yds.
I cant wait to get the can on it, then the tree rats are really gonna hate me.

Sweet! Post some pics.

I've got an older laminated stock heavy barrel model (pre-accutrigger) with a Rifle Basix sear in it and a 8-32X Burris rimfire scope on it with parallax adjustment from 10-100 yards (rather than 25-infinity). It initially shot very well and did so for a while, with sub 1/2" at 50 yards being pretty easy with more than one type of ammumition. For some reason the group size opened up on it though and I haven't figured out why. I moved and don't really shoot rimfire rifles anymore, and I bet I haven't shot that gun in 5 years. It just sits in the back of the safe now. I need to pull it out and see if I can figure it out. I remember being really frustrated by it, and I tried cleaning it really good and then shooting it until it was dirty again and nothing helped. The muzzle never got dinged that I am aware of, but maybe having it recrowned would help.

It's a shame, because I have this sweet little rimfire plate rack with different animial silhouettes (chicken, ram, turkey, prarie dog, pig, and seems like something else as I was thinking there were at least 6 plates) that is a blast to shoot. It's not official size or anything, but the smaller ones are a real challenge, especially at 50-100 yards, and it is resettable with the pull of a rope and can provide hours of entertainment.

So when are we gonna go get started on blastin them silhouettes?

All it takes is a little time, and digging them out of the barn. I should try to get to it this weekend. Still can't shoot handguns (well not the way I want, anyway) for another month, so I ought to shoot something...
