Great videos. I put mine in an oryx chassis and you could park an 18 wheeler under the barrel-positively no interference. Seems to shoot well, if I can just do my part

i put a mdt xlr chassis in mine . groups went from ok to under 1/2 in group at 500 yards . the stock was the real accuracy problem with this rifle . the overtravel adjustment in the trigger was not set correctly when it left the factory too.. now i can set it real super light safely . cant believe sav let it go like that . if you set the trigger lower it would go off while closing the bolt .. BIG SAFETY PROBLEM SAVAGE !!!!!!

I have this rifle in 6.5 PRC and .308. My son has 2 in 28 Nosler and 6.5 PRC. They All shoot sub moa. My 6.5 PRC shouts .25 moa 3 shot clovers. I roll my own and with each rifle finding the right nodes made all the difference. Most accurate rifles out of the box I’ve ever owned. It also takes awhile to season the barrel. I’m shooting barnes and son is shooting Hornady .

That’s awesome! Shortly after this video, I purchased an XLR magnesium element 4.0 chasis to use. It dropped the group size significantly

I think that this gun is largely mean to run that cold bore shot with that stock. If you have the XLR, you'll have a range and hunting rig. Looking forward to the side by side

That Fusion 165 is good. Windage issues are usually from the shooter. The winchester is acceptable at both 100 and 200. I'm 99% certain it's the stock at this point

So your $1500 carbon barrel throws groups the size of a shotgun? I own a pencil barreled ultralight savage that groups in a quarter size before it heats up. None of their mags work very good anyway. I guess I'll keep buying Tikka and Winchester.
@motoriderguy3854 2 жыл бұрын
I doubt accuracy is affected by the stock being rested on a bag ,the forend takes a fair bit of force to make contact with barrel, the weight of the gun by itself is not near enough to flex the stock and touch barrel. I have the same rifle .
@isaacspoon 2 жыл бұрын
Well as soon as I changed the stock it shrunk the group size to about 1/2 moa with the same box of ammo tested in these videos

I'm waiting on another 280 ai I'm having built by alamo rifles ,so that will be exciting . Also I polished my savage bolt up inside and out ,that made it alot smoother cycling .

Was the XLR stock upgrade a direct bolt on? Or was there any smithing involved .
@isaacspoon 2 жыл бұрын
Direct bolt on, no smithing, and it increased accuracy DRAMATICALLY! I’ve had a lot of life event popping up in the past several months which is why I haven’t posted a video in a while. But once things start to settle down a bit (should be soon) then I’ll start posting more frequently again.
@55vdub Жыл бұрын
i think having the gun rest on the mag is why you are getting less than the usual sub moa most Savages produce
@isaacspoon Жыл бұрын
It was the stock and how flimsy it was. Once I changed the stock I saw immediate improvements
@ShelbyCase-eu7vu 7 ай бұрын
Nah bro, touching the barrel isn’t gonna throw a bullet like that. You need a more sturdy shooting rest that a single bag under the rifle. There’s a reason bench rest shooters have the setups that they do. You are doing savage a disservice with this video.

What was the outcome on this rifle? Recently purchased the same rifle and having some grouping issues also. Trying a new scope this coming weekend and hoping that’s my issue. Would like to know how yours is doing now? Thanks
@isaacspoon 4 ай бұрын
My accuracy drastically improved with a stock change. The factory stock was making contact with the barrel and was super flimsy. I purchased an XLR element 4.0 to maintain the lightweight desire of the rifle. It helped substantially. I also hand loaded to further increase accuracy after I found the accuracy improved by about 50% from the stock change alone.

@@isaacspoon congratulations on your baby man! One of the greatest gifts God ever gave me was my twin boys and my daughter. I have the same 300 wsm as you and I have definitely had issues. Even with handloading and match bullets the best I squeeze out is .85 Moa for a 5 shot group. My son's American ruger does better than that. I called savage and they said most ppl in the world would be happy with .85. I told them I'm not most ppl and a 1300 dollar rifle should be sub 1/2

@@danielforester6636 thanks!! Yea it’s been life changing for sure!! And I agree. A 1300 gun should shoot better than that… and with a wide range of ammo. Not finicky just to even get sub MOA.
