Savage FV-SR

[Hghlndr]

I just purchased this rifle from a fellow ingoer. Today I finally got out to the range. I didn't have alot of time, but it was impressive. I shot 10 round fairly quickly and it was amazing. I can't wait to see what it will do if I take my time. I think the small game around here better watch out.

.22 LR, it is a Savage Mark II FV-SR with a BSA Sweet 22 scope.

That's a Boyd's Tacticool stock. I should know; I just got one for MY Savage MkII FV-SR as well!

Does the stock make a huge difference than the factory stock?

The proof is in the shooting; I haven't shot mine with the new stock yet (still waiting on the rest of the bottom metal from Savage in order to complete it). BUT the cheek weld is much better (I have an adjustable cheek pad coming anyway), the pistol grip area has more natural/comfortable feel, and the forearm will not flex like the standard stock will, allowing the barrel to free-float.

I'm looking forward to reading a review on it.
I'd be interested in how much of an improvement it would make in accuracy.

It was at 50 yards. I wanted to shoot a slow group at 100 yards, but the 100 yard range was being used and I didn't have time to wait.

I really want one of these. For prices around $275 its hard to not buy one right now. How is the cheek weld on the factory stock? It seems like the picatinny rail makes the scope set pretty high.

My FV-SR is Tacticool now, too...

The stock

Is that the same stock Savage uses on the Mark II-TR? Looks identical.

Yes, and on the 64TRR-SR, as well.

Nice looking setup you have there

Very nice rifle, what ammo you shoot?

I have been shooting Wolf Match Target. I'm going to try some Federal 510 the next time I go out.
