The Savage Mark II FV (Flat Bottom Varmint) is the heavy-barrel black synthetic variant — a bull-profile 21-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel on a matte black synthetic stock with the AccuTrigger. The flat-bottom fore-end of the synthetic stock sits stably on sandbags without the rolling that affects round-profile fore-ends. The FV is the most commonly recommended entry-level precision rimfire bolt-action for benchrest beginners.
