Title: Just put this one together tonight
Post by: savagehunter on July 04, 2021, 10:15:34 PM: Savage long range hunter in 6.5 creedmoor 2nd gen. With some work i was able to drop it in a GRS stock. Topped it off with some ARC rings and a nikon black X1000 6-24 ffp scope.
I bought the gun when cabelas clearance out the LRH . The factory accustock was scratched from being a display model. Not a custom gun but man it looks slick.

With a heavy barrel, the Berserk tends to be a skosh soft on a bipod and thats one of the things they addressed in the Bifrost. Less forward flex on the bipod. All in all we got to test several at Box To Bench Precision and found them very enjoyable to shoot.
