[QUOTE="Crunchyfuego, post: 1265068, member: 98830"] I purchased a model 12 LRP a few years ago, only savage I have ever owned that shot like garbage out of the box. I went to work on it immediately. bedding the action, working over the barrel with Montana X bore conditioner and eventually added PTG bolt body. Groups shrunk to sub moa with factory ammunition. I've since added a custom mcmillian stock and I love it. A few months ago I tried out the new Hornady ELD-X factory ammunition and I wish I would have taken picture of the groups I was getting at 200 yards. Cannot wait to get my reloading set up back and running. could never get the VLDs to shoot well. I might try the hybrids. Keep messing around with it. Savages are hard to beat. no special expensive tools to work on them needed and they shoot. I just bought a sendero II in 300 RUM, but I think Im going to scrap it and build another savage. wish there was TI actions. [/QUOTE]
