I just purchased a 93 R17 FVXP. This came with a Bushnell 3x9 scope and a grey synthetic stock. I can't find the FVXP in the Savage lineup so am wondering what the V stands for and the best ammo to purchase that is inexpensive? Also wondering how my model compares with their other models as far as quality?

Thanks,

JohnM

Welcome to the site. You need to look at the package gun on the web site to find your model.
The v stands for varminter weight barrel. What is the best ammo to use it is all trial and error, each gun is different, you will just have to buy a box of each and see what it likes.

Thanks,

I checked out the web site but couldn't find the V, so I'm assuming it has all the characteristics of the other numbers.

Yes,
F = Plastic stock, XP= package gun (scope rings etc.)
