Savage 12FV .223 new AT One Stock

[graycrait]

Savage 12FV Cabella's special for $249OTD at Black Friday. Only added a Boyds AT One, has older Japanese Tasco 8-32.  Off a rest at 175rds shot the last 6 of AE .223 into a nickel.  To no practical purpose I suppose you could shorten the barrel, a bit more trigger adjustment and bed the action - you might shrink the group, but considering the price the accuracy is good enough. Match ammo might close the gap even more, but why...???

I always enjoy your practical approach to “good enough” accuracy.

I will be buying that same stock for my daughter's target rifle. What do you think of it so far?

One can't beat the cost per ability to adjust as well as all the aftermarket buttplates and the ability to change to two different grips.  There are some "edges" on the stock that I might take a sanding block or dremel too once I shoot with this some more.

 I need just enough accuracy so that I can at least stay in Plinker4life's "rear view mirror" when we are shooting saltine crackers at LBL.  If he gets too high a cracker count over me I get discouraged:)

Ol' graycrait can shoot pretty good. And can man handle a ultralight S&W .357 snubbie like a BOSS.
