I just held the Savage 64FXP .22 in a local store and really liked the look and feel of it, as well as the longer barrel (compared to the mossberg, ruger, & marlin). This was not a brand/model that I was seriously considering until I saw it in person.
The main thing that I'm wondering is whether any of you have had negative experiences with this model, and how well it does with feeding and ejecting cheap bulk .22 ammo (at least compared to others, such as the Marlin, mossberg, & ruger). Lastly, I'm wondering what your experiences with its shooting accuracy have been.
I don't want to make my decision based on price alone...but it doesn't hurt that this model was cheaper (at least in my local store) than all the other .22 options, and also happens to come with a cheap 4x scope. $139
Any insights you have would be great.
Thanks!
