Default New Savage 116FLSS

My Savage finally came in last week. I figured it was finally time I got a 30-06 to fill the gap in my arsenal. I mounted my nickel finish Burris Fullfield II on it and took it out to the range just to break in the barrel and at the same time get rid of some old Norma factory ammo (for the brass) and to get the scope close. It was darn cold and windy but after shooting one shot, cleaning, adjusting scope, repeating again and again then firing 3 shots cleaning and repeating again and again the rifle stillmanaged about 1.5 MOA with my last 3 - 3 shot groups. I can't wait til the weather breaks and I get to shoot some different handloads through it. I suspect that like my other Savages, this one is going to be another shooter and with the right combo should be around 1".
