The following load works great in a Savage I built earlier this year using a factory 22" sporter barrel. Fully prepped RP brass, BR-2 primer, Nosler 120 grain BT pushed by 42.5 grains of Varget. I'm seating the Nosler .012" OTL. Chrono velocity is 2957 fps with groups of five into .632" at 100 yards. I've glass bedded the walnut stock I bought from Brownell's and floated the barrel. It's scoped with a Mueller 4.5X14 APV in Weaver 4X4 rings on a one piece EGW picatinney base. This charge is mid-range in the books so I would recommend working up to it in your rifle.
