My first modern Savage. Nicely finished. The box magazine is not my favorite setup, but seems to be what the market wants. A five round internal magazine would be better for what is essentially a bench gun. First 5 shot group out of the gun at 100 yards was 0.75 inches with 77gr match kings over 22.9 grains of TAC at 2.26” OAL. Next group was 0.55 in. The barrel cleaned up easy, so it is well made. The bolt release system is a little goofy. I am getting used to it. I am looking forward to trying my supply of 80 gr SMK bullets. The barrel has a shorter throat than my AR15, so the 80’s have to be seated to fit the magazine, about 2.41” which is still generous compared to an AR, which requires single loading with those bullets.
