Oh OK I guess I'll post a pic of mine too again. Redid the factory crap stock and did the metal in Gunkote. This thing is stupid quiet with Wolf match ammo, it keeps them subsonic.  Sub-MOA at 100 yds ona calm day  The other day I was shooting spent shotgun shells at 100 yds with pretty regular hits.

I like my FVSR but I absolutely hate the stock it comes in I think I'm going to get a stock off of the BV for it I didn't like how the tacticool felt on the 16'' gun.

I know what you mean about the stock, too bad they don't design it for scope use.
I wish Hogue made an overmold stock for it.

I have this model rifle with a BSA Catseye 4x16x44 scope but I cant find any rings locally that are low enough to get a good cheek weld to the stock it seems that the base is adding to the height. What options do I have to help lower the scope height ? Or raise my cheek weld up...

I'm thinking about the same issue as I wait for my rifle.  

On the first page you can see the camo rifle has two rails which come on the TRR? and are very low.

Does anyone have the part number for those?

Mine, has an EGW 20 MOA base on it now. Haven't quite gotten the accuracy I want out of it yet so far, around .44 with Wolf Match at 50 yards is the best it's done. Rem Subs get .55 or so. Need to try more ammo

I have had a MKII since before it was cool to have a MKII.




This is one of my buddy with a nice CA jackrabbit he got with my MKII while we were out calling coyotes.


I have two Pre-Accutrigger, Pre-Ereceiver guns, they have both proved to be very accurate and a lot of fun.

Off a bench at 100ys the bull barreled one will sometimes shoot Rem Goldenbullets in a less than 1inch 10shot group!

Finally got some range time with the Savage MkII TRR SR. I was impressed with the accuracy of all the ammunition utilized and was especially surprised by the 60 grain Aguila Super Sniper ammunition. This particular barrel seems to stabilize that round at least out to 50 meters.



Burris Extreme Tactical Rings

Vortex 6-24x50 mildot

SILENCERCO Sparrow





Ammo tested





CCI mini-mag high velocity. Rounds 26-30 through weapon at 50 meters





Remington sub-sonic. Rounds 31-35 through weapon at 50 meters





Aguila 60 grain Super Sniper. Rounds 36-40 through weapon. Dirty bird...on the dirty bird target...was the target at 50 meters. I was very happy to get this kind of accuracy with the ammunition running suppressed. Most of the noise was the heavy round hitting the 1/2" plywood backer for the target.

TAG FOR PICS. (can't get to a photo hosting site at work)
Got mine in the Boyd's stock, slapped on a TRS-1 in the very same Burris xtreme low rings, harris bipod, etc. Sighted it in on targets once, but I use it to shoot my steel popper out at 150 yards. Does it with unfaltering reliability with CCI Blazers even. Very impressed so far. Might have to get a new rail as I've just about max'd out the elevation adjustment at 150 yards.

I love my TR MkII. I like this stock for prone shooting because the grip fits my hand nice. The thumb hole stocks are just a little off for me when prone.



I have 3 Savage rim fires and they are very good rifles. I have two .22s and a 17hmr, very happy with all of them.

My gunshop FINALLY got one in. It was the right model and everything (not the Lipsey's one). I bought a Millett TRS-1 just for this rifle. Probably going to end up swapping it out for my VXII 6-18 AO, but I figured I'd give it a shot. The TRS-1 is meh. But for a .22, it should do fine.

ETA: Bought 1/2" (med) burris rings, but the rail on this thing is SO high, I had 0.4" of bell clearance, trading for low rings, which should leave about 0.15" clearance, perfect.

The first thing I noticed out of the package and a good cleaning.

- The bolt is sloppy, not unlike a lot of savages out there. If you cant the rifle so that the handle is even slightly skywards and try to push it home, it'll bind. This was WELL greased up too with Rig that I use for break in process.
- The trigger is AWESOME for a stock .22. Even at the lowest setting it's still heavy, but VERY crisp. I'm sure with some screwing with the springs and wet sanding I can get it down to the 1-1.5 lb area
- Stock is crap. Absolute crap. I have no idea why the BOLT FV-SR is $10 MORE than the SEMI TRR-SR with the better stock and a more complex action. WTF Savage?

And of course now that I actually have the gun, Stockys is sold out of blued/black bottom metal. Looks like a can of spray paint and I have an appt.

Did anyone have the non-rectangular 'magnum' plate on theirs? 99.9% mine was completely squared up and not trapezoidal.

ETA 2:  Called without my serial # (DUMB, HAVE THAT IF YOU CALL SAVAGE, THEY CAN CHECK RECEIVER TYPE) but I told her it was the squared up mag well. The plate, trigger gaurd, and TG screw was like $37 shipped. Added 2 Mags @ $14 or $15 piece and came to $66.

So to re-cap:

TRR-SR :$475

FV-SR: $275
Stock:  $105
Parts:  $ 37
––––––––––––––––––––––––
FVR-SR ;) $417

The only difference being the forward rail on the TRR-SR for NV optics. But honestly, looking at it, unless you ran an aimpoint or small RDS, your optic would cover the whole rail anyways.


Do you have the part numbers for the parts you had to order?

Here are a couple of pix of my refinished FV-SR.
I had it parkerized then moly coated Field Dark Earth(FDE)
The thin factory blueing wore pretty quickly, I only have about 4k rounds through it. A friend of mine has a full setup for refinishing firearms and does mine occasionally :D
I wish I had a little rubber stamp of a fox and a cat to mark on the stock its kills but it wouldn't have enough room on the stock already !
I really needed to raise the comb otherwise with a good cheek weld I was looking at the back of the bolt.
I also added an inch of foam between the stock and pouch.
Now it fits perfect.

Was in Dick's the other day and bought their TR with scope for 399. I did not have a mount to mount a good scope so I used the one marked 'China 3x9".
It is on a little crooked but had enough adjustment to zero. I wanted to shoot, and did.
Some nice 1/2" groups with CCI ammo @ 50yds. Bipod / body.
CCI Subs were awsome on clay fragments left on the berm about 96yds. out. About a 6" hold.
Happier than more than half of my CZ purchases. I have had two CZ rifles that shot as described in the threads. This is my second Savage and two for two now.
I like this rifle and have another on order, another variant of the TR.
