Was at Bass Pro the other day and they had a 12FV 223 in the close out rack. [It was the stagered feed model] Picked it up and noticed that when you close the bolt, it will automatically pull itself down as soon as you start to lock it. When I got home I checked my 12FV [center feed] and it doesn't do that. Did they change something? I also noticed they changed the tupper ware. The new one has a bigger overmolded beavertail type forend that is flat on the bottom. Not like a ramline stock. Maybe the people at Savage have been listening to you guys.
