Savage 11FXCP. .243, detachable box magazine, still wearing the original synthetic stock and Bushnell 3x9. Both of those are liable to get upgraded, but not this year. This year, I'm just going to take it hunting as-is.
Only Savage I currently own is a Model 12 BVSS in 22-250. It will shoot the cheap Wally World Remington into about 3/4 inch and good ammo like the BVAC into under 1/2 inch. In the pic (was sighting in and not really working at a great group) the group on the left was not much over 1/4 inch at 100 yards (the lower hole is torn paper, not a bullet hole)
This is my Steven's 200. It began life as a .223 rem but now is a .243 with E.R.Shaw heavy barrel and Boyd's Prairie Hunter laminated stock. Scope is a Leupold VX-2.
This is my current "long range" stick, a Savage Model 10 Precision Carbine in .308 Winchester.
It's got a 20" medium/heavy barrel, detachable box magazine, Accutrigger, digital camo Accustock and a Harris tilt/swivel bipod. The scope is a Bushnell Elite Tactical 3-12x44mm (FFP, mil/mil, illuminated reticle) with Butler Creek flip-caps, mounted in Seekins Precision medium rings on an EGW HD-Low 20MOA rail.
I plan on having the barrel threaded at some point but, other than that, it shoots well as-is, so I'm not going to change much.
I got this, what supposed to be 12-LRPV, but for some reason it came with benchrest stock. Anyway after playing with it I discovered heavy chatter in its chamber which made fired brass useless, so I replaced it with CBI 30" bull barrel, so here it is:
Here's 5 shot group at 100 yards, bt the way this is 6mmBR.
A friend bought a M110 stainless .270Win. "package" gun . I don't know what scope it had except it was a 3X9 with silver mat finish.
His first 5 shot group was about 4" high and 2" left.He moved the scope adjustment the wrong way and next group was 2" farther left. He moved it back where it was and his next group was on top off the first group. He moved it 2" right and that group was on the center line. He went down 1" and fired 2 groups, the second to confirm the previous. All groups were 5 shots @100yds with cooling between groups. All were 1" or less with factory Remington 150gr.Core Lock. The rifle was new and had only been cleaned of its factory gunk. Some guy who was watching and had been testing handloads in a custom rifle packed his gear and left when he found out what Dave was shooting. I don't have pictures but thought this was an interesting anecdote.
My wife and I have five Savages. The .223 's are that accurate, the 7mm WSM's aren't quite and my M99 ,.308 isn't.
I have 6 Savages 2 standard 110 223 a 10 police 223 in a lamented stock bull barrel. All three have the Tammany triggers. In the 243 one 11 THS lamented stock and a 243 synthetic stock. The 25.06 is a standred wood stock. All have 6x24x44 scopes some with fine crosshair target scope and some have the Mil-Dot all have all have 1/8MOA
I jest sold my best target gun it was a mod 12 243 BVSS. My best buddy got it in Oct from me. It was a little two heavy for me.
Sadly I have no pictures of my rifle on my PC... I will try working on that...
Anyhow I have a 30-06 Model 111 Hunter with walnut stock, detachable magazine, accu trigger with a Tasco scope. I hope I got the model number right... I often misquote that.
Personally I think I over paid for the rifle but the at the time the accu trigger was new which for whatever reason sold me on the rifle... but overall I am highly happy with the rifle, it shoots right where the cross hairs are held and I can't ask more than that. Also it has about the same recoil as my 7400 .243 which is awesome for a 30-06.
