They never did have this rebate on the vista promotions sight, regardless of what was printed on your rebate slip or anything printed on this thread. Perhaps in the past they did, but not for this Second Amendment Cabela's promotion. How do I know this? Simple, I went to the site and it did not list it, just the free stuff which doesn't by the way include shipping.
You will find the rebate forms link on the Cabela's online ad for the 12FV;

You simply click on mail in rebate and it will take you right to the forms and instructions.
I bought 2, they are as advertised, blind mag, varmint contour barrel, accutrigger and plain Jane stock. They shoot like most all the Savages, under and inch without any problems and can do bug holes if you put a decent stock, hand loads or factory and good glass on them. Available in Ruger .204, 22-250, 223, 308 and 6.5 Creedmoor
Any other questions?
