Savage model 12 F/TR

[Thror]

Has anyone on this board actually shot this rifle model?

After the article in Shooting Times I got really interested, tried to find out as much about it as I could, mainly on American boards, so I've read a little bad and a little good, but it's as though no one wants to confirm or infirm Shooting Times affirmations. Now I want to know what other Canadian shooters think about it...

So let us have it!

Picked mine up last week and am in the process of installing rail and scope. Should have a report shortly.

Thror,

am also conidering buying one of these rifles.
from SIR/Cabela's in Winnipeg.
read the same article in shooting times "Accuracy Secrets".
beware however that they reported the Barrel twist rate as 1/10" when it is actually 1/12". this will only be a factor if you wanted to launch longer bullets from your .308.
myself i'm partial to 190 SMK's.

good luck and good shooting.

as per,
