Just in case anyone wondered if Savage rifles were present in force @ F-Class events...



...including John Weil (2nd), John Chilton (5th), Darrell Buell (6th) and Mark Houseman (9th). 4 out of the top 10 F/TR... not too shabby!

Buell shoots a bone-stock (no bedding, no nothing) 12 F/TR; Weil shoots a 12 F/TR with an aftermarket cheekpiece and buttplate, Chilton has a 12 Palma wearing a 12 F/TR barrel (from the Savage 'custom' shop), not sure what all Houseman has done to his. Weil was shooting Berger 155.5BTs over 8208XBR from Lapua cases, and was making up ground hand over fist @ 1000yds despite some of the others (Rorer, Chilton) using heavier bullets like Berger 185 LRBTs. Sometimes its the Indian, not the arrow...
