Savage Mark II-G. Opinions??

[Sportsman4x4]

Hey there, Just purchased a brand new savage Mark II-G in .22LR (wood stock). Looks to be a neat little gun for the price. Would love to hear some comments on this rifle.

thanks

I'd like to hear your thoughts on the rifle once you shot a few rounds through it 4x. I plan on buying a Mk2 FVT as soon as my PAL is processed...

Oh, and congrats on the new purchase!

The mark II G rocks.....great gun for the value. Add a tip-off scope and you are good to go. Its my favourite entry-level gun, that shoots as good as an Anschutz.

Actually, the entire Mark II line is awsome value for the buck.

My brother has that gun, I love it. really fun to shoot, and plenty accurate for gophers.

I have a G version myself. I didn't like the brown paint they call stain so I refinished it. It is quite accurate, (Pre-accutrigger) and the stock doesn't feel like a kids gun. Mine does have a problem with the chamber. If I shoot too much, fouling builds up and the rims slip off the extractors. I found if I attach a .22 caliber wire brush to a short cleaning rod, then attach it to a drill, it remidies the situation. Now, I carry the brush and short rod in the vehicle if I'm using that rifle. It really puts a damper on a good day when it happens. But if it's kept clean, it's not an issue. For the record, I had a new model T-bolt, (More expensive) that did the same thing. Invest in good cleaning stuff and your ready to rock.
