Any opinion on the Savage FCP rifle: 10FCP, 110FCP ,10FLCP?

for what purpose?

If you are talking about the HS stocked model, it is a great shooting rifle.

I just noticed this on savages site also, haven't checked the law enforcement section in a while.

10 FCP Mcmillan is a great out of box performer.

don't worry too much about a stock....it's an easy swap

If your planning on shooting in compititions don't get something with a muzzle brake. They are normally not allowed.
I myself prefer the 12F/TR.

My friend bought the 10FCP McMillan - the stock has a great fit & feel, but I haven't tried shooting it yet (possibly this weekend).

I have 2 FCP Mcmillan's in .308. I'm gonna take the barrel off of 1 and cut it down to 20" and replace the other with a 6.5x47 barrel I have on order with mysticplayer. The .308 with the stock 24" barrel is shooting really well with no ammo playing yet. I shot a 10 shot group that was .750" at 100 and I know it can do better because I've been out of it for awhile. Too busy it seems.

I've been thinking of picking up one aswell. Just got into rifle target shooting at the start of this year with a 223, time to upgrade!

I'm buying one, gonna dumpa falcon 4.5-18x56 on it, I think.

Update: just tried my friend's FCP McMillan for a good 40 rounds - barrel needs to get warmed up a lot before groups start tightening up. I took it out at -15C and shots were going all over the place until I went through 8 rounds, but accuracy was very good thereafter (a bit under an 1"@100y without rear bag, clover leaf with rear bag). This was surprising since I didn't notice the same issue with my rifle - might be because the Savage has a thicker barrel profile than mine (more metal to warm up), or lack of fluting? Who knows, but it was a pleasure to shoot once it got settled in.

You won't regret buying it.

Good choice fry.

The one I have ordered is apparently 'metric' in milradians I think. However after reading reviews and a few sites, these are growing in popularity and are very easy to use.
