L Cazador Report post Posted February 20, 2018 Anybody have this model Savage? How well does it shoot? DavidI have one in 6.5 Creedmoor. Bought it at Cabelas in December for $319 plus tax. Got a Savage $100 Visa reward on it which brought the price to $219! Shoots in the 2's, average .230" out of the box with a Leup 6.5X20 scope. Stock trigger set at just a shade under two pounds. Shooting neck turned Lapua brass with small rifle primer. I think it will do better with a better stock. So I ordered a thumbhole laminate from Boyds that I will pillar and glass bed. I'd say that's darn good shooting for a factory rifle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle mountain ranch Report post Posted February 20, 2018 Don’t have or owned the model you mentioned, but most savages I’ve come across shoot lights out right out of the box . Not the prettiest but they shoot. I got an old 110 in 22-250 that is ridiculously accurate no matter what you feed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CatfishKev Report post Posted February 20, 2018 I also got the cabelas deal but screwed up the rebate somehow. But it shoots pretty darn good. With a bull barrel and accutrigger you can't go wrong. Especially when it's on sale 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azhuntnut Report post Posted February 22, 2018 I ordered a Creedmoor, but might switch out the barrel since I already have a Creedmoor. Cell4soul- Is your gun a small or large shank? Im assuming small. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHREK Report post Posted February 26, 2018 I haven't done a thing to it. I am using Nexus 142 grain match ammo. They are a local company up by deer valley airport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
