welcome back to the social regressive guys and gals. I have a couple of quick
announcements to make before we get down to the videos where I show the pillar
bedding and epoxy bedding on this rifle. that's going to be the last real work
that we have to put in on this. we might do a couple fun little tweaks on here to
just get it ready for the big day, but in general that's just going to be the
last of the work. the the last kind of time intensive piece of this whole
rifle. now I'm really looking forward to it and I'm mostly looking forward to
getting out and having some fun testing with this we have a good hand load now
even using rather inexpensive brass I'm really excited to see what we can do but
let's jump into this first off there is a new source for the savage 12 F V I've
mentioned before that the only place that you can get this rifle is through
either Cabela's or Bass Pro now that they've kind of merged you can get it
through either one and that usually hovers around four hundred twenty bucks
and now there's one other place that you can get it in case maybe you don't have
access to those stores maybe they don't ship to an FFL near you or something
like that you can get this rifle now through the Sportsman's Warehouse thank
you to mark eagle-eyed social regressive viewer thanks a bunch man and remember
that the twelve FV is kind of a strange little rifle it's one that Savage has
continued to produce for a while even though they don't actually list it in
their catalog it's one that you're not going to find on their website you're
not going to find any info out there about it it's one that's made just
exclusively available to these I guess these three retailers now it's a really
great bang for the buck the one at Sportsman's Warehouse is gonna be a
little bit more expensive maybe they're gonna do the sale every six months or a
year or whatever like Cabela's and Bass Pro have done for a while now it's
coming in at about 500 bucks for that one ships
I believe so you might want to check it out and see if maybe it's shipping
matches where you want to be yeah you can check that out some other really
cool news though first off this this one's big for a lot of you guys that
maybe you've wanted to follow along with this and do a similar rifle if
you have the the savage 10 FCP-SR as well this is going to be a
big deal for you Boyd's has released new inlets to fit
not only a heavy barrel channel for a lot of their stocks like this one the at
one and the pro varmint and others like that actually basically every stock that
they have in their catalog for a centerfire rifle they have released it
so that not only can you have a heavy barrel channel up front but you can have
that detachable bottom metal and let down here so if you want to be able to
run an external magazine you can do that I thought that maybe when I had made my
my purchase that I had kind of run into an error that maybe I ordered the wrong
thing but as I was going through the catalog I noticed that you couldn't
actually get those two things at the same time you couldn't get a heavy
barrel channel and you couldn't get a detachable magazine at the bottom those
two were kind of mutually exclusive either had to get a blind magazine heavy
barrel channel or you got the sporter weight barrel channel and this and I
ended up with the sport sport or weight barrel channel and kind of opened it up
and I think that's what a bunch of you guys have been doing too but I talked
with Boyd's for a little bit and we kind of saw that gap in the catalog so
they've gone in and they've come up with a new Inlet so yeah now you can get the
heavy and you can get the the DBM here and yeah that should leave a whole lot of
us a lot happier be a lot simpler you can just drop it in without having to
modern ething and for those of you that maybe you ended up with a stock that
does have too narrow a channel - barrel channel when it's set up for your sporter
weight barrels I'm gonna link to a video that I did in the past that was
the the savage axis I had to open that one up a little bit as well and you can
see how I did that you can just use a dowel with some sandpaper on it and then
just kind of thread sandpaper in afterward to be sure that you have
enough clearance and that should do the trick and yeah that's what I did with
this one right here now the last thing that I wanted to point out is also from
Boyd's if you have a Ruger American they not
only have all their stocks set up for American we did a swap with one of
those where we we just swapped the stock on it to get it a lot prettier
and probably get it a bit more accurate too and if you want to know how that's
done because it is a little bit of a trickier process than with the savages
I'll put a link to that video around here as well but what they have done is
they have come up with their own bottom metal so Boyd's is now not only in the
business of making stocks but they actually have bottom metal now for the
Ruger American so if you want to be able to run those single feed kind of single
stack short action at least I don't know if they have long action yeah I haven't
haven't seen that so far they look like they're all short action but they do
have their very own bottom metal now for their own stocks so you can order the
stock with the the inlet for detachable mags actually I guess they always do
anyway but yeah it'll fit up in there and you can run your like your pmags the
the single feed AI ones anyway and maybe you're accurate mags I'm kind of curious
to hear from you guys that have Ruger Americans and see which magazines run in
yours I've tested out a couple of different rifles and sometimes there's a
little bit of incompatibility I would recommend probably starting with the
pmags they're inexpensive they tend to feed really well they just run really
smoothly through the action you tend to get just a really quick action overall
go check those out so that's it for today ya in the next video like I said
we're going to be getting into the pillar bedding and epoxy bedding be
sure you don't miss that this is going to apply to all of the savage models
basically because they're all just kind of based on to action screws one of the
front one at the rear and it's actually a pretty simple job it's just a little
bit time intensive and I'll show you how all that is done but yeah we'll see you
guys around and thanks to patrons of the destructive
