How did you arrive at $219?

They were on sale for $319, I didn't add sales tax.

I ordered a 308 because they didnt have one on hand. Guys that have ordered, how long did it take? Im also planning on getting a 223 when they go on sale again.

[RustyShackle]

I had to wait about six weeks or so. Likely your wait time will be less. I would think they could send one from another store to you also.

I ordered two in Sept. Did the on-line order process. Ordered a 6.5 CM on 9/11, which was on "backorder" status when I placed my order, then on 9/20, I decided to order a .223, it was in "limited stock" status when I placed my order.

The .223 was shipped next day and I picked it up 3 days after my order date. The 6.5 CM I didn't get to pick-up until 48 days later.

Sooooo....based on my experience I would say, between 3 and 48 days! :p

Ordered my 22-250 Rem on Oct 14, got a pick up by the end of the month...Soon after processed my rebate and received a confirmation of rebate....Hoping to have for Black friday sales....Optics baby

[BB68]

I guess I spoke too soon. Got an email late today that it was in, just got back from picking it up. 7 business day wait.

I got back out with my new 6.5 Creedmoor, was shooting 1.5 + MOA with Federal Gold match Berger. It is in a chassis with a steel Nightforce rail, Vortex Tactical rings, and a 10 power swfa SS scope.

Shot off a bipod with a rear bag. Wood-stack two or three bullets, but had a distribution of bullets around those.

Going to take it out again this weekend and shoot that thing straight.

I got my 22-250 in early September, and mailed the rebate form mid September.
I didn't see it processed on the automated system on the Savage website so I called them. It was processed on October 31, and should be sent out early next week.

It sure sat in a mailroom somewhere a very long time.

On a sad note, I also called on a Burris XTR2 $100 mail in rebate from late July that I sent off in Early August (within 2 weeks of purchase) and they have no record of receiving it. They said I could resubmit it, but since the last date for mailing is past, I got no assurance that I will receive the rebate :(

Hopefully, you will still receive the Burris rebate. That is why I like submitting rebates online, since it instantly shows a record of the submittal.....much harder to dispute, but I have never had a issue with any rebate I have mailed.

I'm really hoping that Savage will come out with the 12FV in 224 Valkyrie. Would be a good gun to get the new round out on the market for people to play with.

[hereinaz]

Okay, so I'm shooting my 12fv and there is a sharp little Ridge of lead or copper or whatever building up right on the crown. I was able to knock it off with my fingernail, but I don't recall having a barrel do this before.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171118/fae24f39fd58997fd8e40ea9c0e4611c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171118/4409c7556f71206051b6bde0c1b8386d.jpg

^^^My 6.5 has a sharp ridge also. I haven't fired a shot from it.

[RustyShackle]

I’ll second the sharp muzzle. I also haven’t shot it.

I Received the rebate card from my first 12FV today, and the status site shows they have received my submission on the second one.
Now to see if all meets scrutiny, then wait out the second rebate card! Things are moving right along.

Yeah, I received mine as well. I'm waiting on my second one too.

Besides a stock inletted for it, what would it take to convert one of these FV's to a factory detachable magazine?

I received my rebate card too. Is it necessary to set the PIN number before using it? I activated it with no issue but setting the pin hasn't worked.

I had to check this out too. There is no PIN. Go to myprepaid.info. Sign in with your card info. Click on FAQs. Says to use it like a regular credit card. Swipe and sign. The amount is deducted.
