    Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique

    Re: Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique I saw that picture when I was originally looking at my options! Nice looking gun you have, but the Evo stocks just aren't my thing. Wish I could have a suppressor like that though. Did you pillar or glass bed that rifle?

    Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique

    Re: Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique It isn't a matter of being able to, or not being able to shoot at close distances with a 25MOA base, it is a matter of not needing it for the distances I do shoot. My range is 40mins to an hour away, and only goes to 100 yards. The next nearest...

    Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique

    Re: Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique Leaning back towards that APT... Rimfirecentral has some really good things to say about it, and this will be my first scope. The only optics I have owned in the past are EOTechs, Vortex RDS's and Aimpoints, so I am really out of my comfort zone...
