Savage mark II

[shores]

Tell me what the difference is between the FV and FV SR?
I see that the FV SR has a shorter barrel, but comes with the sight rail for mounting optics easily.
It also has the threaded barrel for adding a silencer, but those are illegal in canada, no?

Why would anyone pick the short barrelled FV SR over the long barrelled FV if they are looking for accuracy?

or they could be threaded for a muzzle brake. Also, why do you think that a longer barrel equals better accuracy? (iron sights excluded of course...) More velocity probably, but not necessarily better accuracy.
