Howdy, guys and gals! I'm Kyle Broderick. Welcome to The Social
Regressive. We are kicking off a new project rifle today, and this is one
that's been highly anticipated not just by you guys but by me. One of the most
constant questions that I got when we were building the Savage Axis project
rifle of the past year and a half or so was when we would do a project rifle
that ticked the budget up a good bit. People wanted to spend maybe more around
a thousand dollars rather than trying to make kind of a bargain-basement
long-range rifle for around 500 to 750: what we ended up with last time. So your
wish is my command. We are looking at a Savage 12 FV build right here and you
can see that I already have the rifle built out - kind-of. I had to take this
rifle out and do a shoot with it. It's a super-secret project that hopefully I'll
be able to tell you about here in the near future, and yeah, this rifle is a
shooter. It is amazing. Our new target this time, instead of 1,000 yards like we
were trying to get with the Axis rifle, we're going straight for a mile. I want
to be able to take this rifle out and be able to pretty repeatedly tag a big
steel target that we have out at 1 mile. We have the range now, we have the
ammunition I believe, and I think this rifle is going to get the job done. We're
actually going to strip this down take it back down to its individual
components, build it back up together, and I hope that you guys will join me. We're
gonna take a close look at the parts today, and before we do that I just
wanted to address the YouTube Commie apparatchiki out in the audience. No,
we're not manufacturing a rifle; You can put the ban hammer away. We are just
taking a rifle that's already squared away really well and we're just gonna
swap the stock and we're going to put a scope on it. It's no big deal.
One quick announcement before we jump into the specs and parts on this rifle: I
plan to add a new dimension to this build by including live streams every so
often. I want to talk with you guys. I want to field your questions, and I want
to have individual topics of discussion. If you guys have any ideas for topics of
discussion, go ahead and kick them out there. I am on Facebook, on Patreon, and of
course through YouTube. You can get in contact with me; I want to talk with you,
want to see what you guys are building, what you think, and just kind of take
whatever questions you guys might have about your individual builds. So now
let's take a look at the rifle that we're working with. This is a Savage 12
FV. This is a rifle that I've talked about in the past. This is a hidden gem
in the market. A lot of people that like to build rifles know about this because
it is a great platform to start from and when I say that it's a hidden gem I
really mean that it's hidden. This is not in the Savage catalog at all. This is
an Exclusive, built for Cabela's. This used to be in their normal catalog, but
now only Cabela's sells this, and it's - yeah - it's the only place you can find it.
And one of the really cool things about this is that it takes your basic, you
know, your standard Model 10 action with its barrel nut and all of its good
parts it adds an upgraded varmint bolt knob which is quite large, and the Accutrigger
down here, of course, so that's a major upgrade over the Axis that we were
building a year and a half ago or however long that was. Yeah, this is a
major upgrade. This has all kinds of neat performance parts and, of course, one of
the biggest ones is this barrel. This is a 26 inch heavy barrel and this comes in
a variety of chamberings. You can get everything from 204 Ruger, 223 Remington,
22-250 Remington, 6.5 Creedmoor, and 308. And as many of you will probably have
already seen, yes this is chambered for 6.5 Creedmoor. We're going to discuss why
I chose that. We're actually gonna compare 308 versus 6.5 Creedmoor. If you
want to go ahead with any of those other chamberings you're gonna end up with a
really great rifle and actually, if you want to go for a different rifle overall,
a lot of the techniques that we're going to be doing in this series are going to
apply to any of the Savages in the catalog: everything from the model 11 up
through some of the new models. Yeah, a lot of these accurizing techniques are
going to work just the same. Some of the parts are going to
interchange, and then heck, if you're doing a whole totally different type of
rifle a lot of these will also apply as well. So if you're doing a Tikka or
something you might want to follow along with this project anyway because there
are going to be a lot of similarities. While we're talking about the 12FV I
have to point you toward Vaughn Precision's channel. Go check him out. He
has done some amazing builds with the 12 FV as his base. He does things a little
bit differently - we have a lot of overlap, and we're probably gonna be talking
between each other on this channel about maybe some things that we do differently,
how we approach things, but yeah he has built some just brilliant machines out
there and you really need to go see what he's done. I plan to take a kitchen
gunsmithing approach to this whole build I want you to be able to build this in
your garage. Basically if you have a drill press and a dremel tool you're
going to be able to build this rifle out into a real long range monster. The 12FV
has everything going for it. It has that oversized bolt, it has the Accutrigger,
good action, good solid action, that barrel nut, and the big heavy barrel. But
the one thing that you're probably going to want to swap if you swap anything out
at all is going to be the stock. And it's not so much that there's really a
problem with the stock itself as far as accuracy goes - this is a plastic stock,
but it's actually a really good one. This might actually be reinforced because
this is very rigid. I wouldn't expect this stock to mess
with your group sizes even if you're running off a bipod. There are a lot of
cases where a plastic stock is gonna mess you up. It's gonna throw your shots
off and just because of the twist and the bend that you're gonna get out of
that forearm. This is not the case. This is going to get the job done. There are
two reasons to swap this stock out and the most important is right here. This
has a hunter style pistol grip which is going to be great if you are out hunting,
if you're shooting offhand, and you want to be able to track along with game, that
sort of thing, this is the right shape for you. However, if you are shooting
prone or from a bench this is a torture device. It's going to really kink your
wrist up, especially as you're there for longer and longer sessions. Out
prairie dog hunting, yeah, my wrist would just really hurt after a full day of
shooting. So what we want to do is end up with something that has a more vertical
grip and that's why we're looking at the Boyd's At-One stock right here. This has
some wonderful parts to it. Now first off overall this is a hardwood laminate. This
is going to be very rigid. You don't have to ever worry about any kind of bend or
flex if you're running off a bipod or if you're shooting off a sling or whatever.
This is going to be very rigid, very tough; it's going to be reliable all the
way around it's not going to mess up your accuracy. But this particular model -
and I've done a full review on this (I'll put a link around here somewhere) -
this has adjustable parts so you can get this stock to fit you individually, and
when the next shooter goes to put some rounds through your rifle they can
adjust it to fit them. Adjustable cheek riser, adjustable butt pad - which is
actually pretty nice and squishy - this is a very comfortable rifle to shoot and
you're going to be able to get this matched up to your dimensions and you're
going to be able to get that vertical grip. The stock costs about a hundred
ninety bucks not exactly as you see it right here; this does have one upgrade:
these vertical panels cost an extra, I believe twelve dollars off their catalog.
If you buy an At-One, get these panels. You're going to want them. Another good
reason to swap this stock is the magazine right here.
I believe this holds four rounds of 308 or 6.5 Creedmoor and it's not that
there's a problem with the magazine at all, it's just that it's a bit slow in
certain situations. Out prairie dog hunting I would run into situations
where I'd take my final shot and I need to kind of scrounge around real
fast for another round to put in to take another shot. It's a lot better if you
can get a a larger magazine like this ten-rounder right here or a magazine
that you can swap out. Or how about both? So this is one where you could carry a
couple of different magazines in your pockets or in a vest or whatever and be
able to get back on target really quickly. The
bottom metal that you see right here - this is an option if you want to stick with a
blind mag with your at one stock or whatever Boyds stock you fancy. Yeah you
can keep a blind mag in here but you can also ask to have it inletted for bottom
metal like this. This is the Accurate Mag aluminum bottom metal. It has a massive
trigger guard that comes with it so if you are shooting out in some cold
environments you can get your fat digits with your big ol gloves inside here, and
then it has a really nice lever right here. Drop-free magazine - this is steel -
and then this will also support other Accuracy International-pattern magazines
like the Magpul, and we're gonna see if we can run that in this gun. I'd like to
show how you can get a good rifle for multiple price points within this build.
We're going to keep this stock basically as-is except for this vertical panel but
at some point we're going to swap out this butt pad extension right here. With
this one this is an optional extra that you can get from Boyd's
and this allows you to raise and lower the butt pad so you can get a more
direct contact with your shoulder based on whatever shooting position that
you're in if you are a target shooter you can drop this down a whole bunch to
make good contact with kind of the meat of your of your your pec and then you
can raise this up if you are shooting prone there's also a part that we can
swap in here that will allow us to actually can't this butt pad so that it
gets a bit more solid contact with our shoulder since we are not built along
very linear lines it's nice to be able to take a butt pad and be able to kind
of kick it off at an angle like this it just fits a little neater into the
shoulder another way that we're going to be able to show off a different price
point and a different stock option altogether is this right here this is
the GRS Bifrost this is a brand new stock I did a review a while back on the
Berzerk, which is an extremely comfortable prone stock and actually
it's really good offhand to that one was a little bit heavier this
one is lighter and this has changed up some things quite a bit you still get
this offset grip you can see that it doesn't actually align with the rest of
the stock it's actually set off to the side and it's at an angle it's a really
funky thing but it works it is very very comfortable especially in the prone and
we're gonna do a full review on this stock and this one is going to take the
price point up quite a bit this is a very different beast but for those of
you that are a bit more well-heeled or you just want to be able to put more
into a rifle this is gonna be a really neat option even if you stick with the
original plastic stock there are some parts that we're all going to need we're
going to need a scope of some kind this is the SWFA SS 12x42 FFP scope all
milliradian all the way around they have an MOA one as well and yeah this thing
is great people have been asking me to check out SWFA for a good long while
and I can see why this is a very well-built scope great tracking and I'm
looking forward to doing some full testing with this I have shot this rifle
with this scope on it and yeah it just plain works we're also going to be
testing out one of the more popular models which is going to be one of the
fixed power I have a 12X that we're gonna check out and for our kind of
cheapest build overall or less expensive one we're gonna start with that I'm
actually going to take this scope off well swap over to 12 X for a little bit
and then we'll upgrade to this one a little later you can see that this is
actually mounted a little bit on the high side
so the parts that I'm showing right here I had to slap this together for that
shoot but we're gonna head in a different direction for the real build
what we're gonna use for a base is this 20 MOA mount from Weaver this is a
pretty long one we might have to trim it a little bit short but yeah this is
going to work out really well for us it's going to get us that extra
compensation that we need for a shooting at a mile because we're gonna have to
really put a lot of dope into the scope and
we're gonna have we're gonna need as much elevation adjustment as we can get
so we're gonna pop this on there I have links to all the parts that we're going
to be using on this rifle I'm gonna put them down in the description box make
sure you check all those out if you want to go ahead and just build this rifle
the same way that I am all those parts are gonna be waiting for you down there
and one of the issues that you can see okay the scope is sitting really high I
want to get this lower to the bore so what we're gonna do is we're gonna swap
in these right here both of these are weaver rings these are
for whole tactical rings Picatinny bases right here and then these are the low
ones these are mediums we're gonna kick this down to low we want to get as close
down to here as we possibly can if you do buy one of the SWF a scopes go ahead
and grab one of these sunshades right here you're really gonna need this if
you're shooting into a sunset or a sunrise these are really handy one of
the biggest questions people have about building a long-range rifle is which
scope to pick I'm going to give you a few different options we're gonna have a
whole video where we break down which scopes I might prefer for this rifle
we're gonna show off some Falcons like this one this is the one I had on the
last project rifle this is the M 18 plus we're gonna take a look at some
Bushnell's and a really slick one from Nikon we're going to show a number of
price points now for stability we're going to need a reliable rest if we're
going to hit things at a mile what you see right here is the Caldwell
lightweight bipod I think that's what they call it I'll put a link down in the
description like I mentioned earlier this is a very good bipod for field use
it's not all that rigid this does can't back-and-forth it still gets the job
done and this is one that we might use for some of our more practical
challenges like maybe out hunting this is a relatively tall bipod and that is
the kind of thing that I want to be able to get over grass if we're out in a
real-world situation if we're in a more range situation I think we're going to
be using a kind of lower Blackhawk this back here is the protector leather rear
bag this is another one that I'll put a link to this is an excellent rear bag
that has a kind of notch that cradles the the butt back here and you can slide
this back and forth to change your elevation all of these parts should add
up well but we do need to go through a few techniques we're going to bed the
base to the action we're going to bed the action to the stock and we're gonna
do and you know pillars at the front and at the rear and we're gonna do a full
epoxy bed as well we're also going to check out the front up here so make sure
that you don't miss any of these videos so that you can properly a cure eyes
your rifle as well some of these might be familiar to you some of these might
be a little bit weird once we have all this in place though and we've
eliminated variables we've turned the rifle into a constant now it's time to
address the next big variable which is ammunition we're gonna take a look at a
couple of factory ammos right here we have American Eagle 140 grain these are
excellent open tip match in all the rifles that I've tested this so far
this has worked out very well this one has been a little bit more finicky the
CMM G loved this but some of the other rifles like the savage stealth evolution
and the model 10 gr s did not really like it
we're talking about like inch and 1/2 groups somewhere up in there but this
one with its longer barrel might be better set up for that but what we're
really gonna do to get maximum accuracy out of this if you guys have a hand
loading set up we're gonna go through all that naturally we won't be able to
show it on youtube because they're really cranky about well basically
anything they hate our guts but one of the things that they really throw a fit
about is hand loading so we're gonna have to post this somewhere else we're
going to put these videos out on some other kind of platform and then show
them on the reloaders network we can get all kinds of great reloading information
I'll link to all that when it eventually comes around but some of the bullets
that we're going to get into we have all of these except for one or 140 grain we
have a one and eight twist in this barrel so we can handle some kind of
heavier bullets but we have the new spear gold dot these are turning out
very very well I'm a huge fan and these will be great for practical shooting if
we're out hunting hogs or whatever deer these are
gonna be great 140 grains spear hot core these are
another good hunting round not as slick as these these have a flat base so
they're gonna be four more kind of closer range shooting and then we have
140 grain BT HP match from Hornady these have worked very well in all the rifles
that we've tested so far definitely well sub mo way down below half em away even
without doing some really crazy hand loading these come out really well these
are the heavier bullets we're gonna try out these are 147 grain eld em bullets
and we're gonna see how these doing this rifle we have that little bit of extra
barrel length we're gonna get a little extra velocity these might work out
great and the powder we're gonna use for everything is going to be real odor 16
this has worked out very well in my hand loads so far this is what I've been
counting on to get very reliable performance in any kind of temperatures
or other weather situations one last note about the savage 12 FV keep your
eyes on the Cabela's Flyers these rifles go on sale for that hundred
bucks off every six months or so I'm not exactly sure how often they do it but it
might actually coincide with a savage rebate as well I actually picked this
rifle up for the same price as that savage axis a couple years ago 220 bucks
thanks a heap to patrons of the destructive arts you guys purchase the
rifle itself and some of the parts that we'll be attaching to it
thank you Peter our 300 Win Mag patron and to our newest patrons sportsmen
guide who's coming in at the 338 Lapua Magnum level you guys are keeping the
lights on around here keeping the project rifles coming and actually if
anybody else wants to chip in a buck or two a month I'll put a link to patreon
in the description box or somewhere around here
because we have some other projects coming up in the future the next rifle
coming on the heels of this one is going to head in a totally different direction
but I think a lot of you guys are going to find it interesting and practical
anyway I also want to thank some of the manufacturers that have provided some of
the gear that we're going to be testing on this rifle we have SWF
providing scopes for this Boyd's bring it in this stock accurate mag with the
bottom metal and magazine that you see right here
GRS with this stock and then I think we're gonna be playing with some scopes
from Bushnell so yeah thank thank you very much to the various corporate
sponsors that have kind of added some of the gear that we can play with here make
sure that you subscribe hit that notification bell so that you know when
new videos come out this is going to be a multi-part series and you don't want
to skip any one of the parts in here they're all gonna add up to a rifle that
in the end I think is going to be very capable even out at a mile thanks for
watching if you like this video be sure to like share and most importantly
subscribe even if you didn't like this particular content go ahead and
subscribe there's probably something coming that's more up your alley check
