    Savage 12FV Range results


    I bought a box of reloads (500) last summer for plinking and they turned out to be EXTREMELY accurate, in both my AR, and my 12 FV. So I began inquiring as to the load make up, and of course got turned down for that info.

    So i talked to the distributor, and a couple of others and got a fairly consistent answer on powder. So I tore down the last ones I had and measured the load weight, and got an average.

    I then made up my own copies of the recipe and low and behold they are as good perhaps better then I was getting.



    Only mods are Rockite in the forearm, and a turned down minimum trigger pull.

    I have some TAC and will give that a try just for ghits and shiggles. What jump, brass and primer are you using? Where those shot at 100 yds?
    Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.

    Thanks for posting. I am not getting quite that good yet, but having fun with mine. I may try your recipe. I'm using 8208 right now and it is real close to TAC.
