Savage Model 12BVSS 223 Rem.

My son in law has a new 26 inch fluted barrel with 1 in 9 inch twist. With factory ammo it shoots very nicely even out to 200 yards with 55 Grain FMJ.

Anyone care to share favorite reloading info?

Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..

Would you believe that I prefer the VV 140 or VV 540 powders... I do.

I was checking to see how the gun shoots? I just won a gun the same model/caliber and now I am waiting to scope it. Can you please give a report? Thanks.
