last year I decided I wanted to shoot VFS and I wanted a 30BR I new that being retired on a fixed income I did not want to spend a ton of money starting out on a action I have several Savages and one Rem 700 all shoot good, I knew all the custom actions are great but the $1000 to $1400 hundred I did not want to spend, knowing that many barrel MFG's see and true up many actions so calling Krieger barrel and talking to one of their guys I made my decision to go with the Savage Target action, I asked what he thought of the Savage compaired to Rem 700 he said many of the savages he checked did not need to be trued or blue printed they were right on from the factory, then we had a Krieger barrel put on, and I bought a $200 stock from Stock Aid Stocks unfinished I then fitted the barreled action to the stock and bedded it useing arcaglass, I practice at 200 yards I am not the best bench shooter yet need better resting equipment but it will shoot 1/4 moa and my best has been .18 moa 200 yards, I took it to it's first match and the gun told me what I needed to know it can shoot a perfect score as far as points are concerned I had many mistakes at 100 yards pulling one in the 4 ring i knew i was out of the contest then because I knew these guys are good, but I came back well at 200 with some mistakes mostly my dam bag moving on me and shot 242 10th out of 20 shooters. That made me feel better after the disaster at 100 we had a good 20mph wind, I have a MCmillin stock coming UpS tomorrow so it is up to me now to get my trigger pull right and my rest I know the gun will do it. To be in top 10 i have to shoot 498 or better , better being 500.Since I have a 200 yard range in my back yard i plan to practice all winter and learn to shoot a lighter trigger pull mine is 2 lbs now.
