Well yesterday I went and brought home another Savage rifle in the model 12 Savage, caliber being the .223. Brass easy to obtain and this one matches the model 12 that was purchased earliar in 22-250.

These are great rifles for the money and very accurate right out of the box. I do need to mount a couple of those outstanding Bushnell 3200 series Tactical scopes on them and I'll be range ready and give a range report on both those rifles.

Another half-inch shooter. Ho hum....
Have fun!

Hey Tonk, Need a price check as I am trying to sell one now on the classifieds. Mind a pm about what you paid? Thank you

I paid $570 dollars for the model 12 with accutrigger and stock, blue steel with their special butt pad.

Take a look at the Mannlicher-Schonauer replacement spoon bolt handle for that Savage available at Sharp Shooter Supply...I don't own a Savage but always thought the spoon bolt would improve the Savage aesthetically; it may/may not be your thing, but something different.

Hey gents, I just brought home another SAVEAGE model 12 in the .223 caliber. It is the twic of the last one I purchased in 22-250 caliber. Guys at the gunclub been really shooting those tiny grops on paper with these type rifles.

I have one in 223 that is now rechambered in 223AI...it is an outstanding shooter.

I been thinking about doing the same thing down the line with this model 12 in .223 cal. I been reading up on that Ackely caliber, it seems very sound.
