Stopped by Cal Ranch the other day looking for 22 ammo, and they had some clearance firearms that were marked 10% off the clearance price (on a one day sale).  This Savage FVSR caught my eye, having seen the TwangNBang review of the Dead Air Mask, which is currently in NFA jail.  Ended up walking away. Immediately regretted my decision, but was at work already, and couldn't make it in.

I decided that the price was still pretty good, so I went back before work yesterday. Guy at the counter rang it up, and tells me it's been marked down again, this time even lower than the day before.  Paid $196 before tax, $216 out the door. So how'd I do?

Now I just have to decide on a scope. I'm leaning towards the Sig Sauer Whiskey 3 3-9x40 (found an awesome deal on it). Any experience or other options I should consider? A Boyd's Tacticool stock will also be in the works soon (also at TwangNBang's recommendation)

@QuietRiot11 :
You cost me money. Again. But I love your videos and can't stop watching them, so I'm sure it's not the last time.

Rules followed:

I have one and it might be my favorite rifle to shoot. Mine has a Trijicon 3-9 on it, which is overkill but who cares. Also a big old bipod and my thread on can whenever I'm at the range. A few minutes with this quietly plinking at 100 yards and I'm a happy camper.

I want to upgrade the stock and eventually paint it all tacticool too, but just not worth it at the moment.

Best 22 youll ever own.

Now get a real stock.

In the works. I just fent on the Sig Whiskey 3. Optics Planet had it for $123 shipped. I'm tapped out for a few months on the gun budget, but that is next on the list when it get replenished.

I love mine. Wife has stolen it.

PS now you need an Oculus

That would be the CZ455.

My favorite rifle to shoot. Throw a suppressor on it and prepare to giggle like a little girl

My scope came in last night. Seems like a nice quality offering with very clear glass. Normally I'm a Vortex guy, but I couldn't pass the deal on the Sig. Got it mounted before heading off to work. No time to shoot it yet.  Sadly, it may be a few weeks before I get a chance since I'm working nights and in the last two months of paramedic school.

I've been looking closely at the Boyd's stock. Are there any other worthwhile options I should consider?

Now with glass:

At least two extra 10 round mags.

I put a bipod on mine- excellent fun with a suppressor.

I was zeroing mine yesterday for CCI Quiet.  It is about as close to being inaudible as you can get.  Was using a Gemtech Outback IID.

I don't think the stuff is particularly accurate, but I also suspect that my $30 Wal-Mart special scope had its parallax set no where close to the 25 meters that I was shooting.

Have been looking for a decent variable to put on it as 4x just isn't working for me any more.

It's a nice looking gun.  How does it compare to the Ruger American Rimfire?  I've been looking at one of them as a suppressor host rodent slayer.

following to see if there are any good stocks. Mine has been fun again this week, causing grown old men to giggle at the range. can't beat that!

I really love my FV-SR, it's a riot with a can and subs. The factory stock is livable with a cheek riser, it certainly makes for a light package, but I finally got a Boyds Pro Varmint for mine, feels like a real rifle now.

I put this cheek rest on mine.  Makes it way more comfortable to shoot:
amazon cheek rest

I took mine out for the first time recently. I have a SLR aero 22 can for it and I scored a like new nikom rimfire for $40 shipped of the EE. I did highly consider just putting a red dot on it instead of glass however.

How much bullet drop were you seeing with the quiet at 25m?

Congrats, OP.  Don't forget to pick up some WD-40 and steel wool.  'Cause that bitch is gonna rust.
