    Looking for something to learn with

    Re: Looking for something to learn with I'll concur with the XT-22 (and I have 3 Savages). Fine rifle out of the box, and with a little attention a great rifle... And shoots like this with inexpensive ammo(adjusting scope during these groups)... Good luck!

    Which 22?

    Re: Which 22? I'd love a 452FS. I have 3 Savages and they're all fine shooters, If the money was there I'd get the FS-just because I want one.

    Re: Savage Mark II TR Range Trip I've had the easiest leveling with Weaver Grand Slam steel, and Burris Zee steel rings(not the signature). I prefer the Burris, but they're hard to find.

    Which rimfire to practice fundamentals

    Re: Which rimfire to practice fundamentals I have the Marlin XT-22, bought the first one I saw. Wonderful rifle for under $200. Shoots nice little clovers @ 50 yards off bags. Rear iron sight is flimsy, but I assume a scope is in order for your shooting. You'll need Weaver #12 bases and the...

    Looking for my first firearm

    .22lr Scopes

    Re: .22lr Scopes I have the Nikon 4.5-14X40 you're considering on my MKII BV... It does have target turrets and IMHO is one of the best scopes I own. Great optics. I also have a less expensive Bushnell Banner 6-18X50 on my project MKII G if big doesn't bother you... Also good optics at a...

    New MKII BV

    My custom build on the Dick's special MKII G turned out so well, I decided I would try a higher grade in the Savage line. I went looking on Sunday and found a laminate stock BV for a reasonable price. Spent about an hour looking for any anomalies and was pleased to find none. Brought it home and...

    Savage MKII G Project

    Re: Savage MKII G Project Thanks Dylan, fixed it. I still plan on a pro target crown somewhere down the road, but for my investment and time involved this rifle is exceeding my expectations. I'm sure it'll do less than 1" at 100 with ammo it likes as it is. Pretty good for less than $250 in...
