After massaging the trigger on my Savage MKII FV, I headed out to the range yesterday to go and test it out. I tried a small variety of ammo while I was out there, some Federal copper jacketed stuff, Federal Gold Medal, Wolf Match Target, and the holiest of holy... Eley Tenex. Surprisingly I did better with the Wolf than I did with the Tenex, granted I did only shoot the one group with Tenex. Most of the groups were in the .5"-.75" range, but here are some of the best groups of the day, all of them are 5 shots at 50 yards off of a bipod.
