SavageMKII Let's Go Fishing: Fish In A Barrel Challenge: Part2

If you have seen the previous video • SavageMKII Let's Go Fi...
I found the scope base loose on this rifle. I now have it blue loc-tite down to the right torque and giving it another try.

A little advice? Instead of using the course vertical wheel for the fine adjustments set it to the center of the target and lock it down then use the rear base adjustment screw to make all your fine adjustment. You will need to set the fine adjustment so that you have full range of the target. Also a fore end stop will help as well ensuring the rifle returns to the same place each time. And lastly ensure both bags are settled to help with consistency. Those Ransom rests are excellent. Love your channel Marine!

[@susanball1311]

I was thinking the same thing. Table manners ! That front rest needs to be as tight as a bears ass during fly season. Otherwise the torque you have on the rifle gets transferred to the front rest.

[@Dayattherange]

@@susanball1311 Thank you MUCH appreciated

[@cervus-venator]

Good Job Eli. You would not believe that I've loaded up 4 different rifles in the truck and went to where I shoot 4 different times and was never able to shoot. I'm low on shooting footage too for my channel. Hopefully this weekend, but it is supposed to be thunderstorms. It is times like these that I wish I could shoot in my back yard.

[@Justoneperson-hu3nh]

Those dang MK II's can be Crazy Accurate! I love mine, best $275 I've ever spent!

[@Dayattherange]

Yes I need to find ammo it really likes.

[@robertscotti7970]

Wo,I guess i did good locally. (Shocking). I pd $230 a few months back. Great rifle. I have 20 round mags for mine. Hes located in Florida. He makes them to order. Got them in a week shipped. $60

[@ron8566]

That was fun. Certainly better than last time. Thx. for sharing.

[@Dayattherange]

I think my next try might be with some Lapua ammo.

[@ron8566]

@@Dayattherange Roger that. Good idea.

[@kyfirearms]

Nice shooting. Those little fish are scary.

[@brendonbenson]

I wish I had your sense knowing when your luck is about to run out. Nice shooting 👍👍

[@jamesmelton818]

Way to make a comeback. No harm in knowing when to call it good. I'm wanting to try some SK and Lapua in my B22 just to see if one runs tighter than Eley Contact.

[@Bob-ux8sn]

Nice shooting will try again next week Thank you.😊

[@Dayattherange]

Not much tie left looking forward to seeing your results.

[@Bob-ux8sn]

@Dayattherange Probably will get DQ again

[@CountryRimfire]

Hey, no shame in stopping when you're not confident with the rifle/ammo that day 😊 I had to do the same thing Elijah 😉 😜 wasn't consistent enough for me that day to try for the little fishy 😅

[@Dayattherange]

Man I am trying to keep the game warden away from my house LOL. I am not looking for trouble. lol

[@CountryRimfire]

@@Dayattherange haha for sure!! 😉 😜

[@ThecrazyScotsman]

This is a tough one for sure nice job Brother and I think your right to put at least a 1000 rounds or so through it first and see where it goes from there

[@Dayattherange]

TCS I don't know what you are waiting on brother, time to jump in the water it's warm lol. Where is that target.

[@ThecrazyScotsman]

@Dayattherange I need to order a higher power scope 14 power just ain't enough to see those tiny targets

[@donniepowell7146]

Glad you figured it out.

[@Dayattherange]

Yeah so am I Donnie I was about to be on the verge of depression LOL. Now I just need to find ammo it likes.

[@guyfranks4354]

FYI, MK Maching has 11 round magazines for the Savage Mk II.

[@Dayattherange]

Oh man nice thank you.

[@timvest8141]

I feel your frustration brother. I think that Mark ll just doesn't like that RWS.

[@Dayattherange]

I agree with you.

[@fredshebester-wg4vb]

Good luck with your next try! Shoot some sk standard to see how it does with weapon.

[@craigp187]

Great video as always. Love watching you shoot! Can you tell me the exact model of front rest it is that you are using? Thanks.

[@HSmith-uk9hl]

Before shooting a benchrest match I alwys shoot between 10 & 15 rounds to warm the barrel. Then, on my first taget, I fire an additional 5 sighter rounds before going to my first bull. However, I've tried RWS Rifle Match in several rifles and there were simply too many fliers in all of them. IOW, I've never had good luck with it. Just my experience.

[@Dayattherange]

I have shot it in a sporter Anschutz and it loves it. I guess it will be used only for that rifle.

[@HSmith-uk9hl]

@@Dayattherange Excellent. If your Anschutz likes it, that's great.

[@setapart1forever]

GOD BLESS BRO

[@WalnutandSteel]

Heading out with my anny today

[@Dayattherange]

NOW THAT I am anxious to see.

[@WalnutandSteel]

Schedule for premier at 8pm!

[@bfox87]

Im sure there's a flavor of sk or eley it'll like. Mine likes a clean barrel and very little contact with the rifle.

[@Dayattherange]

I am going to thoroughly clean the barrel and chamber.

[@drpietrzak]

Nice work. No reason to risk it with the small ones.

[@Dayattherange]

I don't need the ole game warden snooping around. I all ready live under the thumb of the law living with my wife LOL

[@drpietrzak]

​@@Dayattherange I hear you. When my youngest daughter was a teen living at home I had 2 of them.

[@jinks6410]

I have a Savage MkII and ammo has to be dialed in. You are deffinitely out shooting that ammo/gun combination.

[@susanball1311]

Question on the rifle classes. Shouldn't any rifle with a corncob on it be in open or unlimited class. That is the way it is any place I shoot and on any planet I have visited! Certainly doesn't qualify as VINTAGE !

[@blakemontrose6111]

That’s why I got rid of my Savage B22 and got a CZ id get a nice group then the next group could be 1” plus at 50 throwing wild flyers I’m not sure what’s going on with it. It’s sad cause I love savage rifles.

[@Dayattherange]

Just takes a little work to find out what it likes as with most rimfires.

[@randysmith7040]

Now what did PA say?

[@SPRINTGTO]

What sort of rest is that ? SPECS?

[@adamyankie5252]

Do you still have your factory TR stock?

[@Dayattherange]

Yes sir I do
