Honestly I hope you are right! Lord knows I don't need to buy another. But if they do $100 rebate on these in the next 2 weeks, I'll be getting one lol. If not, it'll be used for ammo. So it's a win either way lol.

I got an email saying my two rebates were on the way. I don't remember when I sent them off, but it was fairly late in the promotion.
I received the same email this morning. Mine was sent the second week of may.
I bought one in June. Cabelas had a sale on it for $350, plus $100 rebate from Savage. I also noticed a small scratch on the stock and got an extra 5% off. Total was $250 after tax (pending rebate). Could have gotten another $20 off if I signed up for cabelas card, but decided against it.
I opted for the 223 but they had others available. Can't wait to outfit it with a scope and shoot it.
both my rebate checks came yesterday. ;)
It's hard. I'm not real patient at all actually. LOL. I bought it right before my vacation. And I just got back a week ago. Picked out the scope while I was on vacation, I just have to get it now.
What do you guys think of the following:
EGW 0 MOA Picatiny rail
Burris rings: Signature Zee Rings or XTR??? <---- I have to take measurements, but I think Medium rings to clear the scope.
Primary Arms 4-14 FFP Scope, R-Grid Reticle
My check arrived yesterday and I purchased in late June. Pretty quick. So, I purchased my .223 12FV for a net $275 after rebate, which is fantastic. It has a nice action, pretty bolt, lovely barrel, and really decent stock trigger now adjusted to 1.5 lbs.. Then, it got expensive... I junked the sh!t stock in favor of a B&C Medalist A2. It is at CDI getting fitted for a DBM right now. Of course, there was a base, rings, and a SWFA SS 12X optic. Add on a pair of 10 round magazines. Now, I've got over $1,000 in this animal. I'll post a photo when I get it back. It will be worth it.
Burris has measurements for their rings on their website. If Primary arms has scope specs on the website your all set to determine which rings. Any reason you decided to go with the 20 moa base and z rings?
I liked the fact that Zee rings have the inserts which eliminate the need to lap the rings. As far as the rail I figured might as well just get the 20MOA, just to have it - not because I need it.
Although I just realized that the Zee rings also have the MOA inserts, so I could go with 0MOA rail and just get the inserts.
Could the target trigger from a PTA be installed on this gun?
Haha, no I couldn't resist the temptation to shoot it! It is boringly accurate, despite not being a chambering I tend to shoot.
I know what you mean. Mine is easily the most accurate rifle I've ever seen. That's the problem! Lol I shoot it so much that I can see me burning the barrel out of it in a couple years or less. I have heard of a lot of guys buying them for builds so I figured I would look for a new take-off to keep as a spare. Love this rifle so much that I wish they made it in 243.
A fast twist .243 Winchester or a 6.5 Creedmoor would make it an ideal long range starter rifle. Well, it'd still need a cheek rest, but it would still be a better starter unit than the RPR or Stealth.
Yep. A 26" in this contour, with a 1 in 9.25", in one of the 6 mm flavors would definitely be a "reach out and touch 'em" piece for sure.
Just got my check back from the rebate for my 12FV.
FYI they also honored the $100 rebate on my 10T 6.5 Creedmoor I submitted even though it wasn't specially listed on the rebate.
Nice!
Just got an email notification that my 12FV rebate is on its way! :) Mailed it 1week before the deadline.
That's insane. I called and asked about that rebate and was told it wouldn't qualify. That's the reason why I held off on buying one. It's on sale now and I am basically getting it for $100 off now but still, I would have liked it earlier.Quote:
