[QUOTE="EastTNHunter, post: 4941216, member: 8364"] Well... I shot the Savage MLII with the takeoff barrel. I took it to the range, knocked over my gun, and killed my Leupold VX3i. It goes back to the factory tomorrow. But the first two shots (39gr N110, 250 FTX, short black MMP) at 100yd before then were within 1”. After the bump, no bueno - couldn’t keep them on paper at 100 or 50, and I was letting the barrel cool at least 15 minutes between shots. Hopefully I’ll have it back before ML season starts. So, I mounted a VX-1 on it that I had just picked up from a member and had mounted/zeroed on my 760, then I shot it to 75yd in the backyard (longest that I can get in my backyard). Below are the results. Three shot groups out of the ML, except the bottom left, and the marked sighter on the bottom right. Guess which one was the absolute shoulder stomper that I was hoping wouldn’t be the most accurate? I’m going to retry the 250gr FTXs and 39 & 40gr of N110, and also the two RL7 loads. [/QUOTE]
