Savage 10FCP HS Precision First Range Session

I received my new rifle last Friday. Installed a Rifle Basix SAV-2 trigger set to about 1 1/4 lbs, EGW 20MOA HD base, Vortex / Seekins 35mm low rings, a Vortex Razor HD 5-20x50 scope, Matthews Kydex cheekpiece, and a Harris bipod. Took it out to the range yesterday afternoon after work to break it in.

We shot at 100 yards, shooting 10 rounds first, cleaning after every round (what a PITA!). Then five five round groups, cleaning after every five. The last group I shot was five rounds of Lapua 167 grain Scenars (factory Lapua loads), with those five rounds going into 0.416", 0.397 MOA. I think this rifle has potential.

You tighten those knobs down and it doesn't move at all. Works great, inexpensive, easy to install.
