    Put a Boyds on the 220 and a good scope and you have an attractive accurate right.

    Bought the Savage 220 and a Nikon inline 3x9 scope. Thanks for all the input. Let you know how it goes when I sight it in. Any thoughts about ammo and base rings feel free to chime in IMG_0405.jpg

    Atta boy!! Good choice! I like Burris QD rings with either Vortex or Leopold 1-4 power or 2-7. Illuminated dot is nice too, but adds another 100 bucks. Good luck , cheers, Jim

    DNZ Reaper was the best one piece set I bought for any of the 220 I owned but the regular weaver bases and standard rings work well too.

    I've sighted in 12 220's between ones I've had and friends. The following were the best and you should try them out with 5 minutes (time it!) between shots and run a bore snake through after every third shot.

    2 3/4 accutips
    3 accutips
    2 3/4 Federal trophy copper
    3 Federal Trophy Copper

    When sighting in control muzzle lift.

    Tighten action screw and set trigger 2 or so pounds pull

    That should get you 3" groups at 200 yards.

    Congrats on the purchase! I will echo Big Jack a little here and suggest Accutips. 3" work best in the few that I have seen. Wait the five minutes between shots or you will be frustrated.

    One guy who uses that "rifle" down at my dads place has found that the 2 3/4" slugs group better for him but it can be very gun specific. I know that buying a box of each and using a lead sled to shoot off the bench (remove human error) is not an inexpensive endeavor but if you can that is the way to go to know exactly what round shoots best in your gun. These things are crazy accurate, with a matched slug you should be able to do better than many rifles with standard ammo.

    I hope so, big decision going to a 20 ga. And bolt action too. Getting excited decided to put the Nikon 3x9 on my ML and pick up the Nikon slug hunter for the 220. Talked to a guy that has good results with the Hornady 2&3/4 SST I have 6 boxes in 12 ga. Lol

    That's a surprise as I've tried them a few times with 3 different 220's and result was always bad.
    Hey you never know till you try!
