Get ready for the next epic rifle series! This time we're heading for the mile marker, and the long range Savage 12FV in 6.5 Creedmoor will get us there for around $1000.

(This is a re-post to fix some problems.)

If you want to work along with me, here are the parts I'll be using:
1. 6.5 Creedmoor Savage 12FV from Cabela's
2. Weaver 20-MOA Base: https://amzn.to/2yBDBB8
3. Weaver 4-Hole Low 30mm Rings: https://amzn.to/2tPXTE2
4. Accurate Mag Bottom Metal & Magazine: https://bit.ly/2EW91In
5. Boyds At-One Laminate Gunstock: https://bit.ly/2CkWMn8
6. GRS Bifrost Gunstock: https://bit.ly/2PsFKZT
7. Blackhawk Sportster Bipod: https://amzn.to/2Q8wveL
8. Caldwell Lightweight Bipod: https://amzn.to/2yTXh5Q
9. Protektor Rear Bag: https://amzn.to/2M7lWGE

There are a lot of great options right now on the optics market. We'll take a close look at each of these new candidates for a 1 Mile scope:

4. Bushnell Forge 4.5-27x50mm FFP MRAD: https://bit.ly/2PULE2O

And don't forget some of the optics we've tested before! These tried-and-true scopes will get the job done:
1. Bushnell HDMR II 3.5-21x50mm: https://amzn.to/2kTqKmF
2. Bushnell XRS II 4.5-30x50mm: https://amzn.to/2C5k4NN

4. Falcon M18+ FFP: https://bit.ly/2M74juu
5. Falcon M18+ SFP: https://bit.ly/2Kkak5Z

Recommended ammunition:
1. Federal American Eagle 140-grain OTM
2. Federal Gold Medal Berger Hybrid 130-grain OTM (Maybe)

I will mostly custom load 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition for the 12FV using these components:
1. Hornady BTHP Bullets 140-grain
2. Hornady ELDM Bullets 147-grain
3. Speer Gold Dot Bullets 140-grain
4. Speer Hot-Cor Bullets 140-grain
5. Alliant Reloder 16 Powder
