And here’s the Savage MkI FVT. I only shot a single series with it scoring 195x3.
This was my starter rifle… It’s accurate for sure. It’s biggest weakness is it’s stock. The down side is by the time you buy an aftermarket stock for it, you’re getting close the the $1k mark… and I think it might be tough to find a suitable stock that wouldn’t put you over the 4kg limit. For that money you might find a better rifle on the used market. The factory stock offers a chin weld only, and it’s but slips off my shoulder often while being shot, resulting in the the ugly 9’s here. The trigger has been set to 1.1kg same as the Anschutz above. The Anschutz has a two stage trigger that I prefer over the accu-trigger but I don’t think the savages trigger brings any disadvantage to someone shooting sporting rifle with it… The rear iris definitely benefits from being shaded by a visor and using a blinder for your non dominant eye. I put the visor on and a blinder for diagram 4 and really took my time producing what might be my best group off hand with this rifle…
