I shot one this weekend and found the bolt to be awkward. Definitely something that would take some getting used to. Did you have any issues working the bolt at first?

I'm seriously interested in this round. (especially considering the lower ammo cost)

Do another post when you kill something with it. Really interested.

I have the same scope on mine. Got to shoot it for the first time last weekend. Very accurate rifle. Loving it so far. Can't wait to ride around and shoot shite with it at the camp.

Jealous! Mind if I ask how much you're into it for so far? I may have to add said varmit slayer to the gun case. 3000fps in a rim fire is crazy.

Thank the Lord. Savage had such awesome rimfire rifles with such incredibly shitty clips.

ST,
Just curious, but did the rings in the first pic come w/ the rifle? The scope sure is close to the barrel in the front and the bolt at the rear. I have a Ruger 77/22 whose factory supplied rings were so low that bolt hit the rear ocular of the Simmons 4-14X scope I mounted on it. I ended up having to buy a set of high rings to properly mount the scope.
