It did shoot better after I found out the procedure for tightening the action screws.
I think I got one of last F T/R in 308 at cabelas on clearance, great deal.
I have a hard time shooting my other guns, just not as accurate. it spoiled me.
no idea number of rounds. it does looks like some fire cracking in front of the chamber. I may have to rebarrel it. I'll see after I clean up the bore and shoot it. not going to shoot any matches, just tear up some paper. it is a beautiful gun, thumbhole laminated stock.
Your favorite loads for your Savage model 12 F T/R. mine is imr4895 with nosler 168 CC or Sierra 168 target match with acc 2015.
Love this gun. one of the best shooting guns I've owned.
A shop near my has a EAA Witness in 10mm for $225.00. the gun look to be in good shape, no frame cracks. maybe a good gun to see what I think of 10mm. only use for paper.
