What would be a good compensater/brake to replace the factory thread protector? Looking for something that would blend nicely to the barrel.

Re: Savage FV-SR question
I just dug into my AR parts and stuck a takeoff A2 on it for now. Maybe I'll find something "cooler" in the future but for now it protects the threads and looks ok.

Does anyone have experience with the DPMS Levang compensator on a 22LR? Does it tame the niose heard from sub sonic 22 ammo?

Not to derail your thread? How does your FV shoot I'm very seriously thinking about pulling the trigger?

I just bought it 2 days ago. I havent had any range time yet. Ive been cleaning the gun since I brought it home due to all the nasty oil and grease from the factory, setting the trigger and lapping parts of the bolt and trigger. I will def let you know how it goes.

Re: Savage FV-SR question
If you're okay with a stainless finish muzzle brake, try RWS. I have his MB on my centerfire rifle, and very happy with it.

But you're doing this more for looks right? I don't feel much recoil off a .22 lr round.

Re: Savage FV-SR question
I got one about a month ago,duracoted it,worked the trigger,added a miculek compensator and weaver 4-16 out of the old parts pile.This gun suprised me,shoots tighter than my kimber svt but just short of my cooper,seems to like cci green tags the best.

I wish I lived in a state that was not so gun paranoid like California.

Re: Savage FV-SR question
I've had my FVSR for about a month now. It will hold MOA- 5 shots- with Wolf MT. I ditched the factory stock and put mine in a Boyds laminate sporter stock- I chose the one that's kinda like an M40. I used new bottom metal from DIP. With some adjustment to the trigger it is much more accurate rifle than it's $400 would suggest- that's with the mods.....

Mullethead, hows the taper from the barrel to the break? Is it pretty clean and flush or is it a big difference? Lets see some pics.

Get a Noveske KX3 if you want to throw some noise away from you, would look sorta cool on there maybe...
