Savage 10FP Tactical in 308Win/Leupold 3.5-10x50mm. Ken Farrel bases/rings.
The factory plastic stock was crap so I upgraded to the Savage model 12BVSS laminate stock and had it stainless pillar bedded. There's also an upgraded trigger installed as well. Rifle wasn't expensive, but it shoots. My humble opinion is that the Savage platform still suffers from the blind magazine design. If they upgrade to a drop mag/floorplate like a Rem700, it will be one of the best out there for the money. I have had the rifle since about 1998 which was well before the availability of the current offerings of quality stocks. The recycled soda bottle stock that it came with was just not working well. The Laminate Savage BVSS stock was the practical choice. It was either that or a Choate....

Saiga 308 Version 21
I had decided to buy the Version 21 but had a VERY hard time finding one. My buddy highwaydrifter forwarded me a message on Facebook from Mississippi Auto Arms last month...they were discounting Saiga's for year-end. They happened to have the one I wanted listed, so....it's here finally.
I ordered three Surefire 20rd magazines and a Tapco gas piston to maintain 922r compliance. We swapped it out tonight at the FFL (who's also a gunsmith.....well, not much of one but that's another story).
I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the wood on the furniture. Being Russian, I wasn't expecting something I'd leave alone. The magazines don't fit well...I need to file off the rear tabs...they're making it a super tight fit in the well.
On to the pics.

A .175" 5-shot 100 yard group shot at a benchrest match with the rifle. Sub .25" groups take lots of patience to shoot. The square aiming box on the target is one square inch.
