I would like to get a nice target .22 and have it threaded for a can.



Looking at the CMP.



They have a Savage Mark II-FVT, 5 rounds, detachable magazine, 6 lbs weight. for $245

And a Savage Mark II-FVT, 5 rounds, detachable magazine, 6 lbs weight. for $445




Are these good to go? Or are there better choices??

The Savage FV-SR comes threaded and gives up nothing in accuracy to the FVT

Here's what I went with. Scary accurate, even with a 16" bbl. CZ 452 American, already threaded from the factory.  






There's a couple listed on Gun Broker, FWIW.

The FVSR can be found with prices on par with your CMP choices, and you will have the threading already done on the barrel.

Well I just bought a few non-panic MGs.

 



So I am classified as Cracker Rich or ARFcom Rich..

Ok, the reason that I ask is that some of the rifles equipped with peep/globe sights are going to need a little extra barrel work if you planned on threading them.

The Savage is going to be hard to beat for the price.

I like my CZ's, but they are another $100-$200 more.

I would roll with the CZ b/c I like wood bolt rifles.




Which gun is more acute out of the box?

They are both very accurate out of the box.

The CZ has a much higher level of QC than the Savage, so I would not expect a dud with CZ.  Sometimes savage can release a turd.  This is especially true in terms of action/stock mating or inletting, cutting and mounting of attachment points for optics, and the crown.  Simply put, the CZ is a finer grade of rifle.

The Savage has the accu-trigger, It is neat, but don't let this fool you into thinking it is a "better" trigger just because you can tune it down to a few ounces.  The CZ's stock trigger is very good, but needs just a little fine tuning to be made perfect.  Some of the higher end CZ's have single-set triggers from the factory, and are pretty much impossible to improve upon.
