Re: Savage FV-SR

I mounted up a Tasco 3.5-10 Tactical and it shot pretty well. I didn't like the turrets on mine though so I'm waiting for a Weaver 3-10 Tactical mil/mil to show up, then I'll do some more shooting. Initially it really likes CCI Standard Velocity and CCI Subsonics. CCI Green tags shot a little better but I don't plan on spending the money to buy more of those. The only thing I didn't shoot was any Wolf .22 ammo. If I can find some match stuff I'll give it a try. The Gemtech Outback II didn't change the POI at all as far as I could tell at 100y. Paint job in process while I wait for the scope.

Savage 10PC .308
Leupold VXIII Tactical 4.5-14 Mil/MOA

Savage MKII FV-SR .22
Weaver Tactical 3-10 Mil/Mil

Krylon GAP

Settled on CCI Subs as the round of choice. No shift in POI with the can on and for the price/accuracy/availability is probably the best middle of the road choice for me.
