I want to thank Savage for sending me this rifle for a review. I can’t wait to take it to Wyoming with Mossy Oak.

  1. 22 plinkster- have you had any issues with this gun in terms of it feeding properly? Say, after shooting it for a while, and it's a little dirty, does it start failing to feed?

  2. I been interested in this MSR rifle for a while but im not sure, not impressed at all after your video!! I knows there's many scenarios when shooting even one gun to another or the same gun as the other but I can report that my Ruger Precision Rifle (yes I know its a bolt gun) anyhow in 308 I get moa & sub moa all day any day at 100-500 yards easily . No Break in whatsoever from the first shot to this very day its moa/sub moa all day!! I guess ill keep hunting AR10s in 6.5 & see what I can find!! Nut N Fancy swears by the DB AR10 6.5 so who knows!!

  3. Sorry, but being a Youtube content provider does NOT make you an expert! It is IMPOSSIBLE for a projectiles deviation "poa/poi to "decrease" with distance, period! 1" at 100yds will NOT translate to 2" at 400yds. It WILL be linear as in 1"/100, 4"/400 etc. as long as the projectile does not become unstable, or go transonic, which would increase the deviation. Contrary to the internet, no one has yet developed a "magic" bullet!

  4. I agree I would dump that trigger! It really kills me in this day and age with these major companies dumping AR-15, AR-10 platforms on us. Whether they're chambered in 308 or 6.5 Creedmoor or 223 for that matter. My point is stock guns just do not come with nice triggers. There's a few but for the most part they don't come with decent triggers at all. When I first got into AR-15 I was always trying to save a buck or not opening my triggers. So I would polish my Seer and put JP Enterprise Springs in. That would at least give me a lighter trigger pull in about 3.5lbs.. but it just wasn't crisp and there were still a lot of take up and over travel.. now I love my Geissele 3 gun in my Hyperfire Eclipse.. and I think I'm going to order either the Franklin Armory or Fostech binary trigger this week… I was going to hold off an order one later just for having fun but with the NRA getting the ATF to revisit bump fire stocks, there might be a huge backlash into all these triggers. There are any Banning bump fire stocks in certain States which is violating our amendment rights. They're taking them without any kind of compensation whatsoever. But that's a whole nother video. Anyways great review thank you for the update on this phone as I've been looking to purchase one. It's always a pleasure watching your videos

  5. You are a great shot , so don't sweat the second target so much. I have been target shooting for 35 years and I can say with certainty that every gun is a little different. Some will do well with one type of ammo and not so good with others. Savage makes a great rifle, so it is just a matter of finding that perfect cartridge your rifle likes. Looks to me that you are getting off easy, because your gun likes the cheap stuff:) I say go with it and have fun. No one should question your skill as a shooter. I like the rifle, I am thinking of that caliber or 6.8 SPC, so thanks for doing a video on one of them.

  6. gotta hold down the trigger longer until the recoil is totally finished. its not a 22, get a lighter trigger too. that will make a big difference. 2 1/2 to 3 lb trigger is perfect

  7. Federal Premium is a solid supporter for the shooting enthusiast community. Savage and Federal are under the same parent company. Federal really stepped up their support for the 6.5 Creedmoor recently and I am also really excited for the .224 Valkyrie.

  8. Rock solid on every shot? Second Group – First shot: highest at 1:00 O'Clock, Second shot: 3rd highest, Third Shot: 12O'Clock right above bulls eye, Fourth Shot: 4th highest at 1:00 O'Clock, Fifth Shot:damn near a bulls eye. All over the place. It would be interesting to see what you do with this same ammo at 300 yards.
