Anyone have any info if Cabelas/Bass Pro will put on the 12FV on sale again for $319, I need another one and why not get it it again at that price again?! They're currently $419 with a $75 rebate, close enough I suppose. Acquired A Boyds Thumbhole Varmint stock, that needs an action.

Makes me want to go ahead and get some discount gift cards to be ready...but I don't want to be stuck with them if they don't go on sale again. Oh the mental anguish...
This is my Cabelas 12FV. I got this .223 to do some cheap training and kill a few Coyotes. I had a buddy cut the barrel down to 22", and it feels much better balanced and threaded it for 5/8-24. I had the Boyd's stock- that I pillar and Marine Tex bedded and sponge camo'ed, PTG Stealth bottom metal and Nikon X-1000 left over from my 10 FCP-SR build. I have about 400 rounds down the pipe and is starting to really be a great, cheap rifle. This is my best 3 shot 100yd group, stock red box Hornady 55gr VMax at 3240.
Savage is running another $100 rebate right now. I had to make a trip to Cabela’s this morning for a 10T-SR
Cabellas does not show a 100 rebate for the FV. It shows a 100 dollar rebate for the 10T-SR though. Am I missing something?
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
So what are the down sides of using a 10T-SR as a base action? Looks like bottom bolt release, smooth barrel nut and non jeweled bolt (if you care)?
I didn't see the rebate on the 12fv, so it might not apply. Sorry about that. The personal down side of the 10t-sr is my H-S precision stock is for a top bolt release, so I will have to stick with the accustock. This is my first bottom bolt release, and I've had it less than a day, but I think I will get used to it. I bought it because I filed my ATF form 1 for a suppressor build and I need a threaded barrel. I cannot find anyone around me to thread my other rifle, so I bought this rifle and I'm going to sell my other stuff.
I just called the Savage Rebate center and the 12FV is not eligible because it is not an accufit rifle. Anything that has both an accutrigger and accustock is eligible right now.

Cabelas is showing a $75 rebate for the 12FV.
The funny thing is when they first put it up they must have not gotten the 5 up on the $75 rebate guns. All of them showed a $7 rebate and the price was a whopping $7 bucks off.
Looks like they have fixed that now.
Whether there really is a rebate on the FV remains to be seen.
I was looking at the rebate form that they have on Cabelas, and I didn't see the
model 12 FV listed.
Last year rebate was a lot of confusion, Axis went through 12FV hit and miss.
Looks like the black friday ad has them listed at $374.97 this year with a $75 rebate. So at $300, I think I'll pass.
How much of a discount can be had on these gift cards? more than 10% ???Originally Posted by celltech
Running 14.4% off right now...there were some at 20% the other day.
Black Friday flyer in the mail today has the 12FV (.204, .223, 6.5CM, & 22-250) on sale for $299.97 after rebate. Sale runs 11/27 - 12/1.
I wonder about that rebate,,, according to the fine print, the 12fv does not qualify.

Cabela's website aslo states $75 rebate on the 12FV this morning - https://www.cabelas.com/browse.cmd?c...&CQ_zstype=REG
Since the sale starts 11/27 it's possible a different rebate form may show up later. To be sure, I'd take the printed ad and a copy of the their website advertisement to the store and require they provide the rebate form that applies to the advertised sale price.
12 FV TARGET shot this week with factory ammunition at 100 yds benched
15 rds at center bull.
Maybe it’s worth 299

That's why I have a hard time justifying a new barrel for my rifles. :)
I have a hard time justifying a new/different stock on my FV12's (3) when they do things like this on a regular basis. It comes down to a "bling" thing for me to some extent, the factory stock is truly plain jane/mud fence ugly but they shoot lights out.
Mine shot well with the factory stock which also had steel pillars only replaced because I wanted a stock that fit me better.
Yep, stocks are important to fit right if you want your best shooting. But, I like the looks thing too :)
There is a new stock option pro mag archangel . Fits top bolt release and bottom release . Adj cheek and lop. Detachable box mag comes with 7 but ten is like under 40 bucks . Stock under 200 bucks . Fits Gen II And IiI . Cool looking I think . Review in awesome new stock thread . With pics.
Nice to get both at same time as in my case with the Bobby Hart LRT.
I have a 12FV with a Boyd's Blind Magazine. Does CDI still do DBM inletting if I wanted to get a DBM setup? Could I just send them the stock as opposed to the entire rifle?
Also If wanted to get another stock from Boyd's......AT ONE stock Is there a better inletting choice when ordering from Boyd's so that I don't have to send the stock/gun off?
I tried calling them CDI but was not able to get thru.
Thanks
Sadly, the owner of CDI passed away: https://www.facebook.com/CDiPrecision/
