Hi guys, well finally got a new rifle for my shooting bench. This is sort of a long intro but it needs to be said. Over the years OSOK (Charlie) have become close friends and talk a lot on the phone. Now Charlie saw I was trying to get bug holes with my marlin 60, and we talked about it trying different things to improve its accuracy. A lot of time was spent on that project and could not get it to work, a semi was not a bench gun. I knew really what was needed was a bolt gun, but being retired and on limited funds I couldn’t afford a new gun. Then out of the blue Charlie said we needed to talk, he saw I was struggling and said he’d send me his famous 'PEEP & GLOBE' at 50 yards... Savage MKII. Once he got his CZ452 the Savage was parked and he wanted me to have it. I was overwhelmed by his generosity and friendship and I thank my big brother Charlie for this opportunity to show I could shoot good. So this journey started in August, and a lot has been done to this rifle to get it where it is today. THANK YOU CHARLIE !!!!
First day back from the FFL dealer I was like a kid at Christmas, got it all unpacked and mounted a Athlon 6-18x44 on it. Off to the bench I went, needed to get the scope dialed in. Got that dialed in and set a 1" dot in the target and pulled a .393 5 shot group out of it with Eley Contact!!!! and was still using his homemade torpedo tuner on it at the time. And this story goes on for awhile as it evolved into a real good shooter.
