Long story short.
My friend bought a semiauto ar10 6.5 platform.
Couldn’t get it to shoot any better than a consistent MOA.
No he probably didn’t break the barrel in correct and he’s not really not patient enough to work on load development. His theory is if it want shoot stock match ammo “it’s not for me”

Anyway

Traded it for a 2020 ultralite 6.5

Wow savage. Great job.

Gun shot .3-6 pretty consistent with SMKs in a match load.

I don’t like the stock. His isn’t the camo one.
I would still bed the lug area with JB weld.
Savage skiped the accu stock to save money. It’s called the accu fit stock and may confuse a buyer that might not be aware.
We didn’t shoot it crazy but burned some lead through it. Barrel never got over warm.

I think it would look great in a thin stream line wooden stock to match the beauty of the fluted bold and action. The barrel wrap has a hefty feel to the touch.
Bottom metal has never been a fan of mine. I like to thumb push load blind mag but to each and his own.

I don’t like where the bolt release is. I like older 10 receivers.

Anyway.
He missed a big deer with the 6.5 ar10 platform
So this savage will ensure that doesn’t happen again.
Cheers
