Not another Savage.............

[doubleA]

............ but...

a M22 that Cooper built just for me in 6.5x284. I furnished the wood on this project. I threw a Nikon on it for now but it will soon have either a Leupold Mark 4 8.5x25 LR M1 mil-dotor a Swarovski PH 6x24 with TDS4 reticle for it.

I probably wont shoot it till I have the new scope but will get back with a review on how it performs. The test target used a 140 SMK and R-22 powder and 3 shots were into .050", they guarantee 1/2" or less.

I will get a Savage 6.5x284 when they are available, it looks like a nice one, though I dont care for Savages





Not a great pic but I will get some others soon.

Definitely not a Savage... Very nice wood grain and I like the design of the stock. I"™m just waiting for the review...

The Savage has always got the job done well for me at a very good price. To each his own. I don't need pretty if I get excellent results.

Good for you James...

Hey whats wrong with the nikon??? That is a great looking rifle,I bet you are proud of that one!!

This wasnt meant to put down Savage guns, I mentioned Savage on account they just released news that they were bringing out a 6.5x284 and I had just recieved this one. Maybe I should have pickeda different header.

Yes James, I believe in "to each their own" also, we all put different values on different things and that's what makes us all different.

doubleA, had you posted that pieces of rough cut wood that was used for this stock? For some reason the wood grain looks familiar from a previous post from someone...

Dan.....Absolutely nothing wrong with the Nikon other than this one has a fine target reticle and is very hard to see in low light shooting situations and lacks any ranging capabilities.
I putthe Nikonon the rifle so if I really had the "wants" to shoot it right away I could. I have to wait till the 18th for my other choices.

Yes Trailer, I had posted it several months ago before I sent the blank to Cooper.


Here is a picture of the blank........
