    Are Finger Adjustable Scope Turrets Needed In F-Class?

    One of the scopes I'm considering is the Bushnell 4200 Elite Tactical: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=234058&t=22164010 One of the things I like about it are the finger adjustable windage and elevation turrets. The newer 6500 Elite has higher magnification...

    Parker Hale Bi-Pod?

    http://www.fidelisfirearms.com/bipods.htm Does anyone own and shoot one of these? The Versa-Pod is supposed to be a knock off of this original design. I was wondering if this model was better? A lot of guys don't like the Versa-Pod because of it's instability, and the fact it tends to "tip...

    Swapping Out Savage Bolt Handles?

    Do you simply grasp the bolt by the handle in padded vise jaws and apply the wrench with a short pipe? That would seem like the easiest method. Bill T.

    Swapping Out Savage Bolt Handles?

    I'm thinking of swapping out the bolt handles on both my Savage 12F/TR, and 10FP rifles with a couple of these "tactical" models from Sharp Shooters Supply, http://www.sharpshootersupply.com/ Has anyone done this? I'm told Savage really tightens the heck out of everything at the factory, but...

    Bushnell 4200 Elite Tactical vs. Leupold Mark 4?

    I have 2 Savages I'm going to be scoping out later this fall. An 12 F/TR and a 10 FP, both in .308. I'm looking for opinions on the Bushnell 4200 Elite Tactical, 6-24X 50MM and the Leupold Mark 4, 8.5-25X 50MM. There is a significant price difference between these 2 models, and both receive good...

    Savage 12F - Reports?

    That's a very good article, and makes me feel a whole lot better. I doubt you can honestly expect more from a factory, box stock rifle than that. Bill T.

    Savage "Round Top" Receivers & Bases?

    How well do the 20 MOA Picatinny Rail bases from the different manufacturers align from a windage standpoint? Has anyone had any difficulty? I ask because of the design which puts you at the mercy of the radius cut down the center of the mount itself, instead of a flat base design that allows...

    Savage 12F - Reports?

    Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear you have had good luck. 8" 10 shot groups at 1,000 and 4" at 600 yards is damn good shooting! If I can get mine to perform that well, I'll be a very happy camper! I have to say the fit and finish on both of my rifles is better than I expected. I just wish the...

    Savage 12F - Reports?

    You guys are scaring the hell out of me! After much thought I just purchased 2 new Savage rifles. An Model 10 FP, and a 12F/TR in .308. These are my first Savage bolt guns. I went with them based on all of the good reports I've read on various forums about the great results guys have been...
