Description
Savage 12 FV Bolt-Action Rifle
The Savage® 12 FV Bolt-Action Rifle is specifically designed to deliver precise shot placement at long range. The 12 FV comes with a synthetic stock, featuring dual pillars for a solid bedding platform. The heavy-contour barrel is free-floated for optimum accuracy potential. Savage's AccuTrigger® is user adjustable to obtain a light, crisp release with no creep; a lever mounted within the trigger body blocks the sear unless the trigger is intentionally pressed in the center. The basic bolt design assures that the locking lugs fully contact the receiver, holding the headspace to a minimum every time the bolt is locked. The tight headspace contributes to the excellent accuracy Savage rifles are known for. The bolt operates with a push-feed design, utilizing a sliding-plate extractor and a spring-loaded plunger-type ejector. A 3-position receiver tang safety is easy to reach with the shooter's thumb, and allows the rifle to be loaded and unloaded in the safe position. A blind magazine stores ammo securely. The Savage 12 FV Bolt-Action Rifle comes drilled and tapped for scope bases. Made in USA.

SUPER DEALGot this in the 308 Winchester about two weeks ago. Have had it out to the Range Twice, it just gets better and better. Its not a Rifle you want to cart up and down mountains, but for Varment, blind and bench shooting you won't find a better deal.
Getting Sub MOA with my hand loads using Varget, IMR 3031 and H4895 good with RL-15 also.
After todays Range Trip I put an AT-One stock on it, looks and feels good, will see if it holds to under half MOA.

UnbelievableI bought the 22-250 last weekend. First of all I read all the reviews on the model 12 FV. All were to good to be true. The stock is a little lacking as said in the reviews. But that is the only drawback. The accuracy is unbelievable. Out of the box at 100 yards it shot better than any gun I’ve ever shot!! I used 3 kinds of ammo all shot great. This thing will shoot 300 yards. For the price you can’t go wrong. I don’t write reviews but I had to on this one.

Accurate, feeds well, great shooterI purchased this rifle hoping it would do MOA. A factory load made this clover-leaf of 3 shots. 140gr BTHP at 2660 chronographed.

Out of the box Amazing Accuracy!1st time at the range: After a quick bore sight in then a 50 yard scope sight in I started evaluating various Frontier 223 Match loads through this out of the box Savage 12V using the factory plastic stock and factory Savage Accutrigger. My Frontier Match 223 55gr put 3 shots in one hole about the size of a 30cal bullet at 50 yards! At 100 yard shots were 1/4 to 5/8 inch groups. Amazing considering an of the box rifle, factory match ammo!. Note: My 1/4 minute mill dot creates a challenge seeking one hole performance! (Wish I had a fine crosshair scope!) Next week after reducing the Accutrigger to is lowest setting and learning the feel of the Accutrigger went to the range again. This time the same Frontier Match rounds were touching with one 3 shot/one hole group. All I kept say was "WOW and Amazing". Thank You Savage!

Shoots as well as my precision setup!I am a long time shooter, load my own ammo etc etc. Those are my bona fides.
I bought the 12FV at Cabela's and promply put it in the safe for months on end. I eventually decided to turn this into a 'budget build' and see if it would shoot anywhere near where my high end setup shoots. To that end, I glass bedded everything in sight LOL. Stock, scope base, rings and made sure the plastic stock was not toughing the barrel. I adjusted the trigger as low as it would go.
Since I load my own ammo, I decided on new Gunwerks brass and several projectiles. Just yesterday I shot the first 10 rounds of 142 grain SMK's over RL 15 through it. Shots 1-4 were for sighting in. Shots 5-9 were at 102.1 yards and as you can see, the first 4 were probably 1/4 inch or so but I dropped one at the 5 o'clock slot to balloon it to .38 MOA. Round 10 was the final sighter to get the scope on point.
The scope BTW is a VX3i off another rifle I own. Decent scope but in no way the equal of what I run on the Bergara.
My 'budget build' is one heck of a performer!

Very impressed with this gunPic says it all , making my own Ammo for the 6.5 creed testing for load accuracy. 70 yards after bore sight top right hole , after one adjustment hole underneath bullseye, moved target to 100 yards shot three shot group all through the same hole. Factory stock needed to go , just wanted the gun anyway

Tack DriverI've had this rifle for a few years now. I paired it with a Nikon Prostaff 3 scope and it's been incredible. It is my first rifle and at the range my groupings are within 1" and many times 4 out of 5 shots are touching at 100 yards. Shot a deer with it this year at 200 yards and he didn't even take a step. Buy it! You wont regret it.

Savage 12FV 223Using this for long range fun. Sub Moa out of the box. 26" inch barrel really gets max performance out of the 223. The 1-9 twist is fast enough for 75gr hpbt. All loads tried were under a inch. How much more can you ask for.
How many shots can you make without heating the barrel with a .308
Asked by: Tecuany
Per the Manufacturer -
"We really don’t test to see when a barrel heats up but can tell you that from personal experience you are looking at 15-20rounds fired quickly before the barrel gets warm. If you are at the range and shooting with time between each shot it will likely stay warm and not scolding hot. "
