FINALLY. Sold Pending Funds. Model 12FV 6.5 Creedmoor

flashpan · Jul 21, 2019

I do like the 6.5 CM but I am moving on to a different long range rifle and cartridge. This has a 26" varmint profile (.830 at muzzle), accutrigger, blind single feed magazine. It's true what you hear about Savage accuracy...this one shot near 1/2 MOA out of the box with factory Hornady 147gr ELD-M Match loads. Handloads even better as you would expect. Round count is 380. Bipod not included and thanks but no trades. $325.00 buyer pays trans fees at A Cut Above or Tigard Pawn. See my add in reloading for dies, brass, powder bullets and factory ammo. Thanks

These are sleepers... You may want to hit up KruelJ here. He might be looking for one of these, since I bought his CTR yesterday..

I will not post pics of the multiple sub moa 10 shot groups I've shot with my Savage 12FV, since it's not the OP rifle. However, I'm quite sure his is a great shooter too. Like most of the other 12FV's I've competed against....

Any trades

Only things looking for now is a scope and rest for precision long range shooting ... Oh and a 45LC 5" Pietta or si,milar.
Thanks

I have one. 1/2 moa all day with handloads in .223. This is a killer deal. List at cabelas (FV is a Cabela's exclusive) is $419 IIRC.

Look at the Caldwell Fire Control. Not an SEB but it's $1000 cheaper.

Clearly I have under priced this rifle and no doubt folks are wondering whats wrong with it. If I were to raise the price, would that restore buyer confidence?

I think it's priced just right. I'd buy it, if I didn't already have one. Your rifle is also bone stock, which is a good thing. Some tinkier like me will come along and buy it, or someone in the know will swoop it up. That's actually a great action to build off of too. It has the more sought after style bolt release. A lot of Savage guys don't like the new bottom bolt release. After having one, I completely understand why they prefer the type your rifle has. I think a lot of it is guys like to window shop and not buy stuff. I've found my best luck at selling stuff has been on GB. However, when I list stuff on GB, hoping to make more money there, someone from another site comes in and asks if that is my rifle that is for sale on GB. I know some guys don't trust group pics, but here's how my 12FV shoots:

Now please keep in mind, mine isn't bone stock. It's properly glass bedded and the fore end is stiffened up and supported as well. But, I've competed against guys using this same rifle in bone stock condition or wearing Boyds laminated stocks and getting excellent results. Also, the seller (flashpan), is a great guy to deal with. Good luck with the sell buddy..

Thanx BSA
Ok if some one wants it a bit more custom I can offer these enhancements. SSS laminated LVT stock, Savage target accutrigger (adj down to 8oz), and a bolt lift kit, SSS stainless single shot feed ramp, aftermarket ejector. Sorry, don't have a cool oversize bolt handle to sell.

Looking sweet man. I wish I would have known you had that stock when I was at your house!!!! Ha ha.. How much for just the stock? Is the comb adjustment knob reversible for a left handed shooter?

flashpan · Jul 27, 2019

The checkpiece knob is not adj as it is, but not terribly difficult to change for a handy person. The current knob position would need a small emblem or ? to cover. Has Anshutz style rail under, 2 1/2" semi flat forend. Would throw in rail adapter for bipod, etc. It was never bedded as it shot 1/2" MOA with just the pillars.. I'm asking 400. Spend 500 on it...waited 10 months from SSS. Sharp Shooters Supply.
