Savage customer service comes through again. *Update new gun groups*

[jLorenzo]

I had a MKII FVSR that I shot the SHIT out of and broke the brazing loose where the bolt handle threads into the bolt. Gun headspaces off the bolt handle so I was getting FTF light primer strikes. Sent gun to them, 2 years out of warranty and they're sending me a brand new gun no charge. Gotta love that customer service. For a 250$ gun with 100$ Boyds tacticool + DIP bottom medal I've shot sub 1" 5 and 10 shot groups many times. I couldn't even begin to guess how many rounds I had through it. Excited to see how the new one shoots.

Awesome. It's always good to hear about great customer service, esp in this business.

Well I shipped it to them on the 15th and just now the Brown truck brought a present! Opening it later on will post pics and results. Excited to see my new gun, and I only paid the shipping to savage.

Brand new gun. I'm happy.

So threw the new gun into the Boyds stock I had from the original, put on the Athlon Argos BTR 6x24x50 that came in the mail today and hit the range. These guns like to be dirty, only had about 20 rounds of CCI quiet through it then shot these groups with CCI standard and Eley Edge at 55y.
First groups are Eley edge, flyer on the top target to the left was a sighted from before, then the second pic is CCI standard.
That big target has a couple groups of .223 in there. I'm liking it.
