Savage MK2 FSS

[l3asturd]

I bought this rifle on a whim. Actually went to buy an SR22, which was just purchased by the guy in front of me. They had just received the Savage MK2 in both 22LR and 17HMR. I wanted the HMR but I already had thousands of rounds of 22LR on the ready.

Took it home (after wait). Put a Simmons 3-9x40 on it. Bore sighted. Disassembled. Waited.

Finally took it to the range and waited last to shoot it. What a pleasant surprise. The scope only need a minor adjustment and suddenly I was a crack shot.

What a fun gun to shoot. The guys I went with wanted to try it and all agreed it was a blast. Both agreed it was the best 22 they'd shot. They had a Ruger and Marlin with them.

I just wanted to share my experience with my first Savage. I'd give it five stars if I thought anyone cared.

I was kind of hoping someone else would chime in who's bought a similar model. I know they're not as popular as the 10/22 but there must be someone else who loves this thing?

OK, I'll chime in. I have two MK II's-one for me, one for son. When you get a good one, they are really good....... These were done at 75 yds and is typical of their consistenty with good ammo. Wolf Match target seems to work best

I would have agree with ya both, the Mark II's are great guns. I picked one up for one of my boys a year ago and it's a great shooter. I actually just ordered a new Boyd wood stock for it. The Savage was such a good gun that it made me lean toward the Savage for my .308 bolt gun. They are fun to shoot...

I'll take mine out to the rifle range and post some pictures of my grouping! This should be fun. lol
