Cabela's Savage 12FV THREAD FEST

[Mozella]

I got my arrival notification today for my order placed 09/08/2017. Now I'm just waiting on my TC Compass!
Did you happen to notice when they marked your backorder as "shipped"? I'm guessing it is part of the current "huge" shipment from Savage designed to clean up ALL the backorders.

Mine changed to "shipped" on Monday and I assume that means shipped from the Cabelas warehouse to my local store, not as shipped from savage.

Their FAQ says something like 5 to 8 days in transit and nobody at Cabalas seems able to track this huge backorder for me. I live four hours from my closest store and I need to make travel plans ahead of time, so it would be nice to have a hint as to when it will arrive at the store. But I'm not holding my breath.

Moments after making this post, I got a notice that my guns are ready for pick up. Good news.

My email said my .308 should ship by 11/25....I hope so!

Just got an e=mail saying I can pick up my rifle. No ship date on this email but the girl at the store Tuesday said her computer said shipped on Monday October 16. The last one of these I bought (in 22-250) came from Ipsy's and it took just a couple days.

Thanks Nic for the info!

My order on 223 still shows Back Order but online catalog shows limited stock. Called Cabela today and was told they have 223s in and "unloading the truck" will be in store in 8-10 days for pick up. So how is the Savage $100 rebate? anyone has success?

Good to hear. I also see Limited Stock for the .223 and 22-250. Many have been approved for the Visa card offer. I sent mine in online and was approved quickly. But I'm still waiting on the card to show up in the mail. Sounds like many will be seeing their rifles soon.

I didn't notice the change. Sorry. The first I knew there was any change was when I got the pick-up email.

My rifle has a jeweled bolt body and may be the oiliest Savage I've ever seen!

What's the link for submitting the rebate online?

Thank you!

[russellc]

I have been approved for one, go to the promotion site, outdoor Vista, and there is a rebate status tab. I got a "not approved" at first. Call the number and they will tell you what they need.

Savage 12FV in 6.5 CM in my hands. Plan to bed the scope base tonight and mount scope tomorrow. 😎

[Blacktail Sniper]

Order status on the 6.5 CM I ordered on Sept 11 just changed from In process to shipped....WOOT!!!

[penna shooter]

General Cabela's site had changed 3 calibers to "In Stock"......Hope they bump my order....

[celltech]

My .308 arrived yesterday and now I have to go pick it up....yeah me! Then starts the project of cutting down the barrel and making something fun out of it...

[Blacktail Sniper]

The website saying there are limited stock seems to have made a big difference when I ordered my .223. It was ordered on 9/20 and I carried it out of the store on 9/23...

[hereinaz]

I got the car, my 6.5 Creedmoor is in that I ordered around September 9th I believe.

Got email today that my 223 is ready for pick up. Thanks for the on-line rebate link. Glass, chassis, bi-pod...

Thanks for all the good info in this thread - kept me going while waiting

I ordered a .223 and a 6.5 September 10. I got the .223 over a week ago but still no 6.5. My son's .308 came in this past weekend.

Edited to add that it now shows my 6.5 as Shipped.
