Country Rimfire's New Years Budget Challenge. Savage 64 Precision.

[@chrislang5659]

Those first six balloons are going to give me a panic attack!😮😅🤣😂

[@FukuYTmark6]

I know right lol

[@NoPro1962]

Now that’s a free floating barrel👀 😝Thanks for sharing Boom Happy Holidays!

[@FukuYTmark6]

Blahaha 🤣 You got that right lol

[@chrislang5659]

Now that's a flier!😅 Hope it's fixable. Nice to hear the kids having fun!

[@FukuYTmark6]

Actually 60 degrees today. I almost wore shorts lol

[@CountryRimfire]

😳😯 Woah! That barrel is crazy-ness! Wow Boom! I can't even believe that! I wonder if Savage will fix that? That is the craziest thing I think I have seen in a good long while. But thank you very much for doing the target! Very cool video Boom! Now you got to get out and ace it with the Savage or Ruger!!! 😇😁 Now I am wondering if I made some of it too small for Budget. I haven't been able to shoot it yet 😭 my weather has been insane! 40-50mph winds and pouring rain 😰 Snow tomorrow, which doesn't bother me as long as there is no wind with it! Planning a lot of stuff tomorrow, we will see.

[@FukuYTmark6]

@CountryRimfire Already fixed. The screw was loose. I think the size is fine as long as we can use any ammo. I was debating which gun to grab. I thought the Hatsan Escort or BSA Supersport 5 would be under $700. But it might be too easy with those. They shoot pretty good.

[@CountryRimfire]

@@FukuYTmark6 Try it Boom! I would love to see and get your feedback! This being my first official program made target, I need all the feedback I can get. I would like to continue making stuff for budget shooters. The precision market is well covered you know? I don't want to step on any toes. But would love to do stuff for the budget guys/gals!

[@yehudaavshalom6137]

64 has a metal bracket and abolt to lock the barrel to the receiver, you have to take it apart in order to tight it. Happy new year

[@FukuYTmark6]

@@yehudaavshalom6137 Yep the screw was loose. I put some Loctite on it and tightened.

[@JimE6243]

That's Savage's version of '"Precision"! As you just experienced, it's self adjusting. JimE

[@FukuYTmark6]

@@JimE6243 Seems like someone talked me into buying this 🤣 Maybe this was the problem all along and now it will out shoot the Tikka and Bergara lol 😆

[@Dwayne7834]

😂 looks like a limp barrel. Good video thanks for sharing. 👍🇺🇸

[@FukuYTmark6]

Afternoon Dwayne. That pretty much sums it up lol.

[@chrislang5659]

No barrel nut to tighten up?😮

[@FukuYTmark6]

@chrislang5659 I already fixed it. Just a loose screw that holds like a channel clip that holds the barrel

[@chrislang5659]

Easy 1/4 inch of slop!

[@FukuYTmark6]

@@chrislang5659 Truely free floated barrel 🤣 Did you see KY Rimfire just bought a Cricket 722

[@Jdelta22nc]

I think we now know why it was shooting like that!

[@FukuYTmark6]

@@Jdelta22nc That's a really free floated barrel 🤣

[@Jdelta22nc]

@ Truly free floated!

[@billdye3530]

Instead of one of those harmonic balancer things do you think a 3in radiator hose clamp tightened to 32in lbs would help 😂. Or steal a 10lb weight off a set of barbells & slide it down the barrel. There are only 500 people checking their barrels right now😂. 👍🙏🎯

[@FukuYTmark6]

@billdye3530 Already fixed just a loose screw. Hopefully it shoots better now. It still may need a barbell weight lol.

[@billdye3530]

​@@FukuYTmark6Wrap copper wire around the bipod legs for extra weight 😂. Helps on a windy day. 👍🙏

[@JBDRLSOARK]

Not bad shooting with that barrel moving around and all. Hopefully it’s got a barrel nut or something to tighten it up . 👍👍

[@FukuYTmark6]

Yeah it was a loose screw.

[@Kyrimfireandhobbies]

I’d say you better get that barrel fixed buddy lol. At least you kept it real. And showed us anyway. I kinda like problem guns and finding the issues sometimes.

[@FukuYTmark6]

It was a loose screw. I put some Loctite on it and tightened. Hopefully it shoots better.

[@unscrupulousrapscallion9426]

just tap a small nail into the gap where the barrel meets the receiver .. that'll tighten 'er right up and you'll be good to go .. no charge .. just tryin' to give back to the community .. thanks for sharing

[@FukuYTmark6]

I was just gonna go with gorilla glue 😂

[@gunnwild1]

If that rifle is assembled anything like the 64F, the barrel is just pressed in and held in place by a bracket. Maybe the screw on the bracket has come loose

[@FukuYTmark6]

That's exactly what it was. I put on some Loctite and tightened.

[@krm944]

The last time you shot that gun I thought there was something wrong with the gun. I didn’t expect amazing accuracy- but I expected it to shoot a bit better.

[@FukuYTmark6]

@@krm944 Now we know lol. Just a loose screw. Hopefully it does better now.

[@lmbear]

Exactly. "Not what you paid for it". What they are selling for: A big difference. Some guys shooting Remington 541 Target models in the budget rifle challenges is funny as hell. Just sayin. I didn't pay as much for my beautiful Winchester model 52 sporter either, but it definitely doesn't make the cut for these "budget" rifle challenges. Nor does my new CZ457 American. Neither does a Tikka T1x, or my 10/22. The reason I shoot my single shot Savage. I'll be shooting this one soon. CountryRimfire said "ANY" ammo is allowed. Hell yes!! boomer, I'd fix that loose barrel. I've had the Savage model 64 in stock form, and it was a tack driving sob!!!! Good rifles, really for what they are and what they cost. Valiant effort. Some of those balloons clustered in tight remind me of the easter egg challenge we shot. Ol Mike is not going to like this one!!!! ha ha.. You may need to send your rifle back buddy!!! Savage generally has stellar customer service. Good luck with it!!!
