Thanks for the reply. Hopefully I can get it dialed in. What are some of the best factory loads for Predators? Federal Match? I was hoping this rifle could be a little flexible with ammo and shoot decent with modest priced ammo not Russian junk but standard ammo. That is one of the reasons I chose it over the Rem 700 tactical. Remington owners report that 700 are a little more finicky with ammo. Years ago I had a ladies and youth model 110 .243 for my then girlfriend and it was so accurate it was crazy so I felt very comfortable buying another Savage but left the range today feeling a little concern. Matter of fact that Lady and Youth model .243 was the rifle I killed my biggest whitetail with. I had to use it as a back up rifle after falling down a small cliff with my M-77 Ruger 30-06 damaging that scope. Nice big 21" wide Whitetail.
