Just bought this 22lr Savage BTV in stainless with the thumbhole stock for our on line 22 lr comps and for me to get back into the club level matches..Its a Savage BTV with the 21 inch barrel in stainless mounted on a bi pod for now..The scope is a Mueller 8-32 with the target reticules and have found it to be an excellent scope with repeatable clicks. Looking forward to shooting it soon..

I had that same rifle, it was a heck of tack driver. Loved Wolf Match Extra, really wasn't fond of CCI SV

Just bought 500 rounds of the Wolf match to start with in this gun because Its worked pretty well for me in the past..Ive tried the CCI SV in both my old Savage and CZ 455 and didn't like it either. Strangely, I was looking at some local club scores and found a guy shot a 98 out of 100 with a factory gun. This means he hit a 3/8 inch circle 98 times out of 100 at 100 different targets @ 50 yards. The best I could do ever was 90 and had to find out what he was using, so I called him.. He was using the CZ455 Tactical with is a Manners stocked 455, when asked what ammo ? CCI SV and he loves the stuff.. Needless to say, I was floored when I heard that..
 
Looking good
I see you haven't submitted your target yet, well no one has. I just rejoined my old gun club since now I have some time to shoot due to a new position at my job. Im going to get it sighted in this weekend and throw up a target on here for everyone to laugh at.. Hey ! Its going to take a lil bit of time tinkering with the rests and get used to shooting again. Its been over three years since I pulled a trigger..
 
I am hoping to get some time this weekend. Busy month with work and family and RAIN!! Glad we have some sunny days coming up.
 
I shot mine 2 weeks ago, just haven’t gotten to posting it yet.
