Quick Picture of my Savage Mark II

[thehouseproduct]

Loving this gun. This was my first attempt at a camo job too.

[zuke]

Nice!
Is that a fluted barrel?

[thehouseproduct]

It's a factory fluted heavy barrel obviously threaded. Not much more to ask for. I need to dig up reasonable ammo and see what it can do.

It appears that you've added a higher rise cheek piece to the comb of the original stock. If that's right it should make getting a good cheek weld a lot easier. The stock Savage stock is almost silly low. Even with plain iron sights it's more of a jaw weld than a proper upper cheek weld. And with raised sighting systems such as your scope or even the peep sights supplied on a couple of their models it's more like a chin weld!

I have a Savage, love the gun, my favorite 22 that I own. The 10/22 is fun for just blasting away, but the bolts on those actions are just sweet. Love mine, great camo job.

[tomme boy]

The stock is a Boyds Tacticool stock. It has a raised straight comb.

My Mark II is in 17 Mach 2, and is deadly accurate at the ranges I shoot it at - mainly between the front door and the bird feeder (22 yards), where the brown-headed cowbirds eat the seed we put out for the worthwhile, or harmless, birds in our area. And the occasional rock squirrel, which will undermine all manner of structures in our part of the world. I had to replace the plastic feeder with one made of steel skillets, because the bullet fragments from the .17 M2 were fracturing the plastic. The cowbirds weren't able to complain, one way or the other, because bird fragments made frequent cleaning of the plastic bowl and overhead screen a necessity, as well.

Not to glorify any of this, but the cowbirds are parasites, and native birds are in danger because of their parasitic activity as to nesting (cowbirds do not build nests, but lay their eggs in the nests of native birds and let those birds raise their young, often to the detriment of their own offspring).

Good practice for breathing control and trigger squeeze practice. And the rock squirrels simply quit when hit by the 17-grain bullet moving at some 2200 fps.

The Savage Mark II (mine with an aftermarket trigger) is an extremely accurate and effective pest control device, but mine isn't anywhere near as pretty as the one pictured at the beginning of this thread........

[TheGrimReaper]

I think you did really good.

[thehouseproduct]

Thanks. With all this ammo shortage silliness I still haven't been able to find any match ammo to see how accurate this gun really is.

[LeftyDon]

Very nice! I have a Mark II BTVLSS stainless bull barrel with thumbhole stock, mine's set up for LEFT hand too.

[sniper]

Nice-looking smokepole! How do it shoot(at longer than bird feeder distances?) Inquiring minds (nosy people) Want to know.

[John Allen]

The Camo job looks really good. It sure beats my brown paint and then some ferns for patterns sprayed on.

[sniper]

WOW! Nice! Who makes it, and is the flash hider threaded onto the barrel?

[starmac]

Just so you will know next time you are looking to buy, savage makes those with the bolt on the correct side. lol I had to say that. I have one, but have never even loaded it, I bought it strictly because it is a lefty. Mine is nothing like yours though.

[ProfGAB101]

WOW! Nice! Who makes it, and is the flash hider threaded onto the barrel?

It's a Savage MK II FV-SR The -SR denotes a "Suppressor Ready" factory threaded barrel (in 1/2-28, with knurled thread protector)(so yeah a standard AR flash hider screws right on)

As mentioned he added a BOYD's stock prior to his custom camo job. ( Good Work! )

I have an OEM version of this with a 6x scope that I keep as my "loaner" rifle here at the ranch for guests who want some range time. These guns out of box will deliver dime size groups or better with most ammo.

My Personal MK II is a GL (left hand action) with the longer barrel and nice Wood, it is a dream shooter that only too much coffee and too much wind keeps it from being one overlapping hole.

I have one in 22lr and 17hmr. Both bull barrels and both are tac drivers at 100 yds
