JOHN ODDONE from United States, PA Public Profile

I'm getting a little older (Almost 72) My eye sight isn't what it use to be!...... These sights really "POP" outside in the light....... made my Old Marlin 25M into a New useable Ground Hog gun again!!........ Front Sight, when on perfectly (My 25M had a screw holding the front sight, and the kit had a new screw)...... the rear sight dovetail was very tight, but drove in straight...... I like that after you mount your rear sight, you don't have to drift it, for windage adjustment, as the sight itself can be adjusted...... couple of shots and I was Zeroed in at 25yds....... I think this setup is a excellent Value

Great Upgrade for Benchrest shooting....... easy to install, and easy to adjust........But be careful!!........ I've got my trigger set at about 1lb with Zero creep and if I shut my bolt real fast the gun will go off!! (Always make sure your barrel is pointed in a safe direction!!!!)....... I should add a half turn to the trigger pressure spring and back out the trigger creep setscrew adjustment a 1/2 turn............ For the record the manufacture recommends setting the trigger at 1 1/2 lbs minimum...... and NO Creep setscrew adjuster!!........ I did start as they suggested, but I like it better with the creep adjustment........... So far I made my adjustments, by removing the entire action out of the stock (Boyd's At-One)....... but I'm 90% I can get to the adjustments, by just removing the trigger guard

If your shooting a Savage MKII and want a 1.5lb trigger pull, with a clean crisp break the "Rifle Basix SAV-RAT" Trigger is the ticket!........ Fairly easy to install, not to hard to adjust and when you hit the sweet spot....WOW!......Feels almost as good as a Anschutz!...... In my MKII the trigger had a little bit of side play so I add a very thin washer to one side...... your first adjustment will be the trigger pull spring, seems below one pound the sear doesn't engage 100% of the time...... I've got mine about 1.25lbs.......2nd adjustment sets the safety........ they tell you to start without the "Trigger Creep" setscrew....... but that's the best part!........ with that adjustment, you can set your trigger with "Zero" creep and a super clean break....... granted it's a $100 trigger in a $200 gun....... but it's like night and day......... for shooting squirrels not really necessary, but for ARA Benchrest shooting worth every penny!

I've been shooting a Savage MKII FV-SR in a Boyd's At-One Stock in ARA 22LR Benchrest shooting for the last couple of months........ since I'v upgraded the stock they put me in Outlaw vs Factory..... I'm way out classed, so I'm doing the best I can with a $300 rifle vs $1800!!........ Anyway after piller bedding the stock, and upgrading my scope (Vortex Venom 5-25X56) I swapped out the AccuTrigger (which I had cut the spring and had the pull weight down to 2lbs) to this Rifle Basix SAV-RAT trigger and set it at 1.25lbs trigger pull...... Excellent Upgrade for Competition....... it's not quite a Anschutz, but it's pretty darn good!....... As the directions suggested, I didn't install the set-screw to set the trigger creep, but now after shooting 50+ rounds at the range that will be my next "Tweek".......... if the trigger and firing pin sears were polished, I'm sure you could get a consistent clean break below 1 lbs......Very Nice upgrade for a Budget Rifle........BTW my best score is 2100 so far with SK Standard ammo........ as of this review I don't have a score with this trigger, because this last shoot was a charity shoot where the targets were coins in a "Show Me The Money" target

First, Great deal from Opticsplanet (Again!!) ...... Fast Shipping and well packed, no issues.......I mounted this scope on a Savage MK-II FV-SR in a Boyds At-One (Pillered and Bedded) Stock, and took it to the local 22 Bench Rest Shoot...... Held Zero perfectly...... unlike the eBay Westhunter I upgraded from....... (hated to spend $400 on glass for a $500 rifle!)........I did OK, shoot 2100...... (I'm still chasing my action screw torque setting)....... my only complaint is the reticle is very "Busy" so after sending a round down range most times where it hit was covered up by the hash marks on the tree....this force me to move the scope around to see where my point of impact was, so I could change my hold point....... the all black reticle made for poor sighting in on my Splatter Targets at home....... but now I'm Zeroed and it's good on the 50yd benchrest targets........ I think to get a better scope, you'll have to spend two to three times as much........ so Yes $400+ is a bit pricy for a budget scope on a budget rifle, but unlike No Name Brands it will hold a good used value in the future......especially with the Vortex Lifetime Guaranty
