My photo "quota" is almost used up but here is another group I shot with nightmare this morning. 3 round .245" Getting more confident that this barrel is a "hummer." Huh "from bummer to hummer" could be a country western song lyric.

One of the best shooting Savage rifles I have had is a cut down 6.5CM 12FV heavy barrel..22"...have it on a Boyd's thumbhole also...shoots great!
FWIW...the very best load in that rifle was with 43.5gr Winchester 6.5 StaBall and 140gr Nosler RDF. It shot so-so(less than MOA) at 2.810" COL but just drilled small holes when I went just short of the lands. 6.5 StaBall performed better overall than H4350, RL-16, or H4831 in 140gr weights,
