trevor Posted April 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 here is the update yes it is a savage the model is the 93r17-btvs at my zero point i found that at 100 yards this gun was great i was consitanly getting 1/4 to 1/2 inch groups at a 100 yards the only problem i had was the accutrigger was to heavy so i set this to about 2 1/2 pounds and all was good went out that night and shot 23 rabbits there is one other problem i dont think my sako finefire 22 will ever come out agin had to put a pants scope on it could not get the mounts for the s/b to go on need hight weaver 30mm mounts here are some more pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnGalway Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 What scope did you put on it Trevor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor Posted April 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 the scope that is on it at the moment is a zero option made by webly which is 3-9-44 but i have a schmidt and bender 8x56 to go on no 4 reticle but need 30mm hight weaver mounts which my local dealer did not have which was a bum.

Axe Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Will the S&B offer you enough magnification for the long shots the HMR can pull off on small targets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axe Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Yeah that came out wrong, didnt it. But i'd have to use the force to shoot a crow at 200 yards on 8x mag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
