Cannot recommend them enough if you restock them. My old 12 fv was seeming to need a new barrel and I have been debating which barrel to purchase. A man was selling some of his guns to my local dealer and I asked him about the savage. He said it was too heavy for hunting and wanted to trade it for a lighter .223. I told my dealer to call me if he traded for it. He did and I bought it. I put on a spare SWFA 12X42 and took it to the range. I shot a round of different weights and loads. Out of 8 different loads, all were under 1" at 100 yds and most were under 1/2". That settled it , I went home and swapped out the Boyds stock on my target 12 fv for the Tupperware factory stock and it shoots great. Can't wait to see what a new barrel will do on the old one if I can decide on which one to buy.
