Savage mark II

[saders]

Been looking at getting a bolt action rifle and i am liking the the savage mark II just wondering if all the modles of the mark II are the same or are there any diffrance with them.

 

[mosinmaster]

Main differences are stocks, sporter vs heavy barrels, open sights vs scope, and stainless vs blued.

Go for a heavy barrel.

which model would be best

 

[WAT5ON87]

depends what what YOU want... use savage's gun finder, enter your wants and volia

I like this one I got from a CGNer.
Has synthetic stock, blued barrel, heavy barrel , swivel studs for sling, accu-trigger. scope mounts.

So far its very accurate at 50 yards and I am impressed.

Down side is that there are NO OPEN SIGHTS. Only scope shooting.

i like the look the of the Mark II BRJ and not many of the them have iron sights and i like the wood stock

You can do what I did, get a mark ii G for open sight plinking and get a mark ii BSEV for target shooting.

Mark 2 F comes with open sights if you want them.

I have owned a Mark 2 F and a mark 2 BTSV. They both have triggers but the one on the BTSV has a much ligher adjustment range.

They don't like to feed hollow points...

 

[mosinmaster]

Get a bolt action for scope, and lever-action or semi-auto plinker with irons.

I have a Mk II bv heavy bbl. This thing is a tack driver with CCI Stingers.

I've got a Mark ii G, if you plan on getting a savage make sure they have the weaver mounts in stock at your location before you get a model that doesn't come with the mounts on it.

I just picked up a Savage FV-SR and look forward to shooting it the free floating barrel is awesome.

Unless you want iron sights, the MKII FV-SR is the best bang for your buck. Plan on dropping it into an aftermarket stock at some point... I am not a fan of the Savage synthetic stocks on their rimfire rifles. Here is a couple of my MKII's below;

Hey Hoyt, What glass and rings are on those two magnificent creations!?

I went out to Silverdale with a fellow CGNer and plucked away at his MkII. I was really impressed. Inexpensive gun with a very nice trigger, some good glass and we were putting together some very nice tight groups.

What muzzle break is on the bottom one hoytcanon?

Hey Hoyt, What glass and rings are on those two magnificent creations!?

The purple FV-SR has a Hawke Varmint SF 3-12X44mm and the red FV (HM2) has a BSA Contender SF 6-24X40mm (but has since been changed to a Hawke Varmmint SF 6-24X44mm).

What muzzle break is on the bottom one hoytcanon?

The muzzle brakes are the same on both guns... made by Ross Schuler of Mountain Home, Idaho... web page below;

You can't buy one and export it from the U.S. without a DOS export permit, if that's what you're getting at.

Correct that's what I was getting at thanks AR180shooter I will look for something local.
