    Savage Striker in action


    I got to play with my .308 Savage Striker today. I took a short video and put it up on YouTube. I'm still amazed how mild the recoil is with this thing.

    Put a squeeze bag under the rear grip. Use left hand to squeeze to adjust elevation and right hand controls the gun. Your groups will shrink. I also use a piece of think carpet under the bipod to help with the bounce on the shot. Those strikers are a lot of fun!

    Thanks! I'll give that a try next time I hit the range.

    Get one of those foam kneeling pads for under the bipod legs. Works much better than carpet.

    Watching this makes me miss the Striker I had in .22-250.
