My friend, I really appreciate your honesty and passion. I have a Savage mk2. Only issues I had was mk2 needed some lapping and better platform. I love a challenge. After 45 years plus years of building many types of .22lr. The serious shooting community will find the Savage mk22 a great option. Yes I have cz,rim x and the over rated VOODOO. MY SAVAGE SHOOTS OUT PERFORMS THEM ALL. I ENCOURAGE EVERY PERSON TO BUY ONE, SPEND SOME TIME TO GET RID THE ACCU TRIGER AND BUY A BASIX TRIGGER. IM VERY HAPPY WITH MY RESULTS COMPARED TO THE HIGH DOLLAR PRETENTIOUS VOODOO. THE VOODOO WILL NOT MAKE YOU A BETTER SHOOTER. ONLY THE SHOOTER NEEDS TO PRACTICE. ILL PUT MY MK2 UP AGAINST THE VOODOO OR MY RMX. LOVE THIS SPORT
Bill tell me a little bit more about lapping your barrel how you did it etc. I am trying to make the tough decision to keep it all Stock OR put it in the spare oryx chassis I have and change the trigger.
These Savage mark 2’s are very underrated. I love mine, but run iron sights, and they produce ragged hole 10 shot groups with the ammo they like. Your bolt seems to be a little rough. You asked what we’d do with that rifle. I’d leave it alone, unless it consistently shoots a flier. Then I’d look at the bedding. Leave it in the Boyd’s stock. It’s a good looking rifle, and appears to be shooting well. I also agree, there should be a factory class rimfire challenge
I think a factory rig showdown is in order. I just picked up my Ruger PRF in 22LR today form Bass Pro cashing in my reward points. I'm kicking around what scope to get for it. Outstanding shooting and love your content.
I recently purchased this same rifle and am getting consistent sub .5" at 50 yds with SK Standard Plus. I have an Arkin SH-4J GENII mounted and am loving it!! Keep up the great content!!!
This is a great video because you are so much fun! Josh is so damn serious! This is supposed to be fun! Aside from that, this rig is pretty damn good for what you spent. I don't have a 3000 dollar gun, so I appreciate the "cheap gun" review!! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the factory setup as too often a lot of 22’s barely resemble the original rifle other than the action so nice to see for us mere mortals on a budget
Thanks for the video ! That’s pretty darn good ! 90%of the performance for only 20% of the cost. The barrel ain’t even broke in ! That barrel actually looks really good . My Sako p94s looks about the same when I get it squeaky clean . Fwiw , the Sako shoots better when I only clean the chamber , I wonder how much better that savage will be when it gets some fouling in the barrel? It’s pretty darned fantastic right now with Eley match
I went a different route for a budget factory class rifle build. Ruger 10/22 Talo edition light varmint in stainless. Amazon scope and bipod. All in with rifle, scope, pic rail, bipod, phone adapter, and 42" soft case. Under $900 for everything. The Talo edition came with a heavy tapered barrel and looks nice. Have been sick and not shot it yet. But have CCI green tag, 3 different Eely to test. And bunch of Federal stuff to get it warmed up.
Yes, you sold me on the Savage MK ll. I just went out and bought one and it's a tack driver, but I definitely need a better scope. I also have a Ruger American gen 2 rifle in 223 caliber that thing is a hoot to shoot. My 68 year old eyes hit a 10" plate at 300 yards. I'm hoping to find a video on the Ruger American rifle by you. Good shooting.
I know you said you are not messing with the bolt throw. Just in case you change your mind, chuck up a wooden dowl with 500 grit sandpapler taped to it and hit the inside of the receiver with low speed hand drill. Also polish the bolt and it becomes butter smooth
I hope that you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Savage has long had a reputation for shooting well above it's price point, a reputation that your new rifle clearly upholds. The borescope shows a very nicely done bore; better than some more expensive rifles I've looked at. Put it in the Oryx chassis and give it a try. WRT the Springfield 2020, the reviews have not been good and I won't take a $400 chance on one. I'd buy the Savage first.
GREAT video !! I just purchased a new Savage MKII FV-SR from my local for $229 and came with a cheap Bushnell scope with it .. sold the scope for $70 (already had one) so I basically got the brand new gun for $159 and it sure shoots nice !!!
Very cool, that ones a keeper! im redoing the crown on my Mark II FVSR when the tool comes tuesday. hoping to get similar results to yours! it shot great at one time but *somehow* the crown got wonky... as always, great video! thanks muchly.
Hey, good JOB! Like the from the store to the range idea. I have a couple of 457s and I don't think they shoot any better than that but I will be sticking with them. Hope Josh has an answer to your challenge.
Come on Josh!! Man Eli that is an awesome setup. I inherited a Savage MK II BV from my step-father. I didn't think much of it until I started shooting it. Complete factory other than a cheap scope and it shoots really nice tight groups. So seeing this one of your preform I can see why. It appears they are just made to preform very well straight out of the box. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. My Savage Mark II FV is not in a Boyd’s stock factory. It was an add on. But, rifle, Boyd’s Agility, and Riton X1 Conquer 6-24x50, and it will shoot sub MOA at 50 yards with CenterX, and Eley Tenex. All for about 650 bucks. Would I like to get some more expensive rifles, yes. But in the meantime, I do enjoy my Savage.
I was going to say that you should have purchased the B22 - but hey - that thing with the 22” barrel goes pretty darn good - i would put it in a MDT LSS Gen 2 Rimfire Chassis System which would stop the groups from “Drifting” …. Also sort your ammo ;)
The gun shoots decent for what it is thanks for demonstrating that, and alot of us if we have a he money will want get the most accuracy out of it , if its me even hunting squirrels if i cant hit them in the head its not good enough clean kill but to make sure hat competive to shoot like wookie i wouldnt do anymore then piller bed u have guns for precision work but thats just me u do some great vids thanks for that
Great video just picked one up today with a Leupold rimfire 2 to 7. Quick group off the tractor hood looks like it'll shoot. Hitting the range tomorrow see what she'll do.
Just about any Savage I've seen would shoot perty darn decent right out of the box, but the kicker has always been to find one that would consistantly function and that one there you got never had one hic-up. I would say it's a keeper.
Did I miss how many yards? I have a savage mk11 I bought about 8 years ago, put a Nikon prostaff 4-12×40 on it and shot Aguilera subsonic solid point 40 grain through it and typically did a dime size group at 45 yards. If memory serves me right the gun cost %200 and scope was on sale at Cabbels for $70.
Next time we are at the range we will compare that covenant 5 to the covenant 7 I am running on my Savage 110 precision rifle in 223 and see what you think
GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS-MY ADVICE DONT CHANGE STOCK OR OVER CLEAN BARREL HARD FOR US GUN NUTS TO DUE IF NOT BROKE DONT FIX-THE ONLY THING I WOULD ADD IS BASIX TRIGGER
I enjoy watching your videos. I appreciate you keeping it clean, classy, and fun. I've got several savage mkIIs and they all love Eley of some sort. I've got a TR setup for base division in NRL22 and it's a hammer with tenex. My factory class ARA benchrest mkII likes eley match
I saw you and cyclops shoot 22 hulls today i practice on spent rounds all the time i hit 8 straight one time no misses 8 in a row good shooting bro keep it up. Beagleman
Thanks for the great Video, Think you should leave it in the stock it came in, I have one and love it. also have the FVT (peep sights) and thinking of putting it in the same stock the TR has as well as my Savage 93 FVSS. For me that is the best fitting stock I have ever had. close my eyes and bright it up and the scope is right there. Got to watch more of your Videos.
Well, I can say that your Savage is shooting a lot better than my Springfield 2020. I really love that rifle, but it doesn't shoot worth the dang! The fit & finish is great at the price point, and the bolt runs smoothly. I only have feeding issues with ammo like the Eley Team, and my guess is it's the bullet design that causes that. Springfield had the right idea with using the 10/22 style magazine. All these pluses, but can't shoot a group the save itself. I can only hope that someone will make an aftermarket barrel for it and save it from being kicked out of my lineup. I've tried 10 or 11 different ammo and can't find one that it seems to like. It's like finding the perfect woman, but she can't cook! You know what I'm saying? It's just a crying shame!😢
Where those targets are 20-25 for a pack of 100, how about a monthly online ara challenge. It could be a way to actually start growing that community and yours at the same time. Do it to ara standard, 25 shots plus sighters in 20 min, class rules remain the same. Factory, gun must cost less than 1250, only allowed mods are to trigger. Open class, all other firearms. Make sure folks realize it is scored worst edge
Hey, just found this page. Your excitement is something else. Just got a Savage B17and I love rimfires and have four of them. One thing I noticed that you did as well, is the fact that Savage loves to leave or put that junk in the barrel. Nasty stuff. Love those groups brother. Now I’m off to the range to figure out what ammo my B-17 likes for a diet. Have not tried the Eley, gonna go online and get a couple of boxes for the 22. I’ve liked and subscribed. Stay safe - shoot straight.
Thank you BA. That crap in the barrel someone needs to figure out what it is. Sort reminds me of cosmoline that a lot of the military surplus stuff was preserved in. Sort of scared me in the first patch I thought it was rust because of the color.
I wouldn't do anything to this rifle. It's a low-cost rifle. Keep it that way. The bore looks pretty good. And it shoots pretty well. I think it shoots better than the price would indicate. I would keep it just like it is.
Love to watch you calling out and trash talking Josh, good natured ribbing your buddies and having fun is what it is all about. But honestly, I have to side with Josh here as a budget CZ setup is a better choice and with the aftermarket available for CZ has potential to grow with the shooter to whatever level they choose to advance too.
Surely understand your point though that MTR just the rifle cost what I paid for everything here. I think really my question is if you are going to leave it factory never ever mess with it is it worth double?
@@Dayattherange Savage makes a good product BUT as far as accuracy and small shot groupings the chances of getting an out of the box rifle that really shoots I think you have to agree the chances of success of hitting that high level of precision on an out of the box rifle would have to be in the CZ's wheelhouse and favor. So to answer your question even more so if I wanted a sub moa shooter out of the box and planned to leave it factory stock yes I think the CZ MTR would give me a higher percentage chance of that happening. And IF for some strange reason the CZ failed to deliver out of the box at least I could more easily rectify the issue with a drop in aftermarket barrel and still make my original purchase a shooter where with the Savage it is what it is pretty much. Last but not least as far as resale value that MTR would hold a much higher percentage of its original purchase cost as compared to the Savage so again as far as the initial cost and investment is concerned again I have to say the CZ justifies its higher cost all across the board. Also the MTR is one of CZ'S most sought after models and its popularity and reputation and desirability will help keep its value higher. So across the board I still think the CZ as a precision shooter is the better choice even though its initial investment is higher. Love your videos and content and really enjoy seeing content which includes the normal more affordable out of the box rifles both stock and with the types of mods the average guy may commonly add to the weapon.
I shot the pumpkin challenge today and hit 24 good hits one the miss I hit it on the stem I guess that's a miss but I still had 24 good hits look out here comes the Beagleman almost cleaned it Beagleman
I picked up a Mark II that came in the Boyd's At-One stock. It shoots CCI Standard Velocity quite well but I've never put any Ely or Lapua ammo through it. Now I'm curious.
Please keep the videos comeing. I could watch them all day if i had time. Ive got the savage markii in a boyds stock from walmart. Im useing cci st and getting about a 5/8 group at 50 yards with them. I haven't tried anything else yet but figured its a good sign that cci st is grouping that good.
Great video! My Savage MK II is a shooter too, and i have some thoughts for you... 1.) Ill challenge you if the RUclipsrs don't step up, and it can be MK II vs MK II 2.) I think you should leave the rifle in the factory configuration 3.) I recommend lot testing using either Eley match or tenex
Your videos are outstanding but I'd have to dispute you not being in that $2,000 rifle group your rest has to run $1,000 by itself and it doesn't shoot
One of the best…if not the best shooting channels on The Tube Of You! 👍👍👍
Appreciate the encouragement and support bisley we truly do, very humbled by it.
Your enthusiasm never fails to make me smile. Thanks!
Thanks Krump

I have a savage exactly like this. Amazing rifle.
You can get 20 rnd coustume made mags for this rifle.
I ordered 2.
They work flawlessly
I saw where some expert said it takes 750 t0 a thousand rounds of ammo to actually get the barrel to a point where it consistently shoots well.
I went a different route for a budget factory class rifle build. Ruger 10/22 Talo edition light varmint in stainless. Amazon scope and bipod. All in with rifle, scope, pic rail, bipod, phone adapter, and 42" soft case. Under $900 for everything. The Talo edition came with a heavy tapered barrel and looks nice.

S&K Match in the Red box is really good ammo, it does very well in my mkii heavy barrel
It's not broken in yet; it needs a few more range sessions before you do anything to it. You'll get a better handle on what it needs as well.
GREAT video !! I just purchased a new Savage MKII FV-SR from my local for $229 and came with a cheap Bushnell scope with it .. sold the scope for $70 (already had one) so I basically got the brand new gun for $159 and it sure shoots nice !!!
I have 2 covenant 5s and a covenant 7 on rimfires I own. Not bad at all for the money!
Very cool, that ones a keeper! im redoing the crown on my Mark II FVSR when the tool comes tuesday. hoping to get similar results to yours! it shot great at one time but *somehow* the crown got wonky... as always, great video! thanks muchly.

Can’t complain about my Vortex Venom 5-25 either for a cheap 5-25. Vortex sells the refurb ones for 350. But it is made in china as well.

I would LOVE to see a Factory rig showdown!!!!
Here in Europe the Savage MKII TR alone will cost around $800. You definitely got a good deal. And a CZ 457 MTR you can pick up for under $700.

Tim thanks brother for watching and the advice you have given me something to think about here.
Yes please give a comparison to the Springfield. Enjoy all of your videos.
Great video just picked one up today with a Leupold rimfire 2 to 7. Quick group off the tractor hood looks like it'll shoot. Hitting the range tomorrow see what she'll do.
Oh man let me know how she does shoot me an email and let me know. I am trying to still yet decide should I bed it or put it in an old chassis I have.
@Dayattherange ok you got it. I'll email ya a picture so you can see how it does. Great content sir!
@Dayattherange what is your email I have some pictures for you.
Just about any Savage I've seen would shoot perty darn decent right out of the box, but the kicker has always been to find one that would consistantly function and that one there you got never had one hic-up. I would say it's a keeper.
I got my Savage MKII TR -SR a few years ago. I absolutely love mine. I mounted a Arkon scope on it. The rifle is dead on Acurate!
Did I miss how many yards? I have a savage mk11 I bought about 8 years ago, put a Nikon prostaff 4-12×40 on it and shot Aguilera subsonic solid point 40 grain through it and typically did a dime size group at 45 yards.

I really enjoy you and your videos. I have 3 mark ll just love them. Most days they shoot close to my 457 I've found all my rifles like SK ammo.
Next time we are at the range we will compare that covenant 5 to the covenant 7 I am running on my Savage 110 precision rifle in 223 and see what you think
Ok cool -- They did not have any 7's plus I am sure it would have been out of my price range trying to keep this a budget build and all.

Sweet Looks like a great set up!!! Nice Barrel and crown👍🏻like the keg bolt as well.
Waiting for the Christmas Ornament challenge to come out.😝

Buds guns has the mark ii TR for $384. I bought one. Killer rifle for the money
Shit I just looked and they are $510 now
I really love the idea of the factory showdown and hopefully, Josh will respond.
Oh its going down, not with that 2020 but i will get something together lol
Well, I can say that your Savage is shooting a lot better than my Springfield 2020. I really love that rifle, but it doesn't shoot worth the dang!

Not a big fan of the savage 22s, but that one is pretty good, maybe better than anything i got. Eley was looking real good. Super gun for the money.

Thank you BA. That crap in the barrel someone needs to figure out what it is. Sort reminds me of cosmoline that a lot of the military surplus stuff was preserved in. Sort of scared me in the first patch I thought it was rust because of the color.
That's exactly what I thought...Great minds...@@Dayattherange
Nice call out to Josh... I bet he takes you up on it too.😅 Always wondered about the MKII.. thanks for the Informative video 👍

I picked up a Mark II that came in the Boyd's At-One stock. It shoots CCI Standard Velocity quite well but I've never put any Ely or Lapua ammo through it. Now I'm curious.
Terrific performance for a budget gun.
Please keep the videos comeing. I could watch them all day if i had time. Ive got the savage markii in a boyds stock from walmart. Im useing cci st and getting about a 5/8 group at 50 yards with them. I haven't tried anything else yet but figured its a good sign that cci st is grouping that good.
I wish I could find a rifle or had a rifle that grouped well with CCI sv. The new stuff just doesn't like me.
Debating on that TR or a B 22 precision 🤔 . Have you tried both ?
Love watching your vids!
Thanks Jacob
Well, this shows you don't need to spend $3k on a rifle to have fun !!..................................thanks for sharing !!
My man you GOT IT
3:00
5 TO 25 scope...👌👌👌👍👍👍
Many trolls would say 5 by 25...
You should add something for the changes Josh made to the 20/20,
Im not competing with the worlds worst rimfire......🤣🤣🤣
I got a factory rifle for this 😆
@@PursuitofAccuracy Oh my gosh made me spit water all over my keyboard LOL
@@Dayattherange lol
Great video, enjoyed watching.
Awesome Charlie
Is that scope made by Riton? The knurling on the knobs look like my Riton Conqueror.
Online sources say Meopta is the manufacturer of the Cabela’s Covenant 5 scope.
Excellent video mate 👌👌👌👍👍👍
That things a shooter brotha loves that eley awesome stuff thanks!!!
That eley was doing good in this setup
Great video! My Savage MK II is a shooter too, and i have some thoughts for you...
1.) Ill challenge you if the RUclipsrs don't step up, and it can be MK II vs MK II
2.) I think you should leave the rifle in the factory configuration
3.) I recommend lot testing using either Eley match or tenex
Pitting the Springfield 2020 against the Savage is a fool’s bet. 99% sure the Savage will win.
I think that Savage will eat that Springfield 2020.
Nice! I don’t see it, but do you use a level on the rifle?
No there is no level I was trying to keep it as low cost as I could but still achieve good accuracy
Great video as always.👍
yeah, put it in the orix !
Leave it! Buy a arkon sh 4. Or a ep 5.😊
Your videos are outstanding but I'd have to dispute you not being in that $2,000 rifle group your rest has to run $1,000 by itself and it doesn't shoot
Who makes your front rest?
That's a Hammer for any money
Does my Annie count as factory they are both stock 😂
Sure it does lol. Though maybe there might be different classes based on value lol
What mag are you using, is 10 mag
Awesome!
don't touch that set up leave it be as is golden.
Do you ever use J-B Bore Compound and Kroil?
I use Kroil/Hoppe's 9 50/50 mix
if it works dont fix it !
I saw it, ol yes I did
That rifle is bad to the bone!
I have all my czs on 40 in lbs they shoot best on 40.

8 minutes of waffeling on before the first shot, he could talk underwater.
i personally enjoy that, guys got a great disposition! awesome channel
I think first shots was fired at 3 seconds in
Actually 2 seconds in, but so what? The man has an interesting story to tell.
I love some cci( mini. mags preferred) SV doesn't do well for me. Great video
Thanks Freddy
