Does anyone own one? Thinking of buying it

Great gun. Horrible magazines.

Looking back , would you buy the savage again ? Or would you spend more and get a ?

Got a FVT that I changed to a Boyds laminated thumbhole stock and removed the iron sights and mounted a scope(currently Weaver T24). The BV is a good choice in a inexpensive rimfire rifle. I have not experienced mag problems but have read where some have. Mine is picky about ammo and doesn't shoot the cheap bulk very well shoots expensive (61.00 per brick) great so if you get one get lots of ammo choices to try. I have a Weaver T24 on it that cost more than I paid for the rifle but it is fun.
If you can scrape up another 100 bucks get the CZ 452. You might want to wait until after January as CZ is going to come out with a new and improved 452 or see if they have some sales around that time. My CZ shoots rings around the Savage with any ammo that you can get.

Yes, but I am crazy. I did spend more and got the CZ Silhouette great rifle. Want to buy the savage?

[zrock]

I'll take a look at the cz in jan. Thanks

Good question. I would probably buy a Remington, Ruger, or a Kimber SVT. I'll keep the Savage though. I have to push up on the magazine when I cycle the action or it won't pick up a round. If I can justify spending a grand on a rimfire it would be the Kimber for sure.

I love mine. Extremely accurate rifle out the box. Never had any issues with my magazines. Highly recommended.
