Needle settings vary from day to day. You literally have to re-adjust slightly every now and then. But don't be discouraged; tuning is easy once you get the hang of it.
 
are you looking for the factory break in settings? or just having trouble getting a tune?

having trouble getting a tune at a full tank of gas it runs rich and i have to lean it but than when it gets a little less than half it gets to lean and i have to richen it
 
ya man thats a common problem with the savage,i run my s.25 with the stock tank and i have it running really rich at full tank. i just tune at half a tank. little slow to get going but i can live with it. hell I've run about 15 gallons like that now. on my .21bb savage i have a new era tank mod that uses a buggy tank in place of the stock tank,its not as big but fixxes the leaning condition,also shorts your run time,so i never replaced the one on my ss?
 
yeah i was just thinking about putting it in between the settings i've been using and only filling the tank up half way
 
there is a dual tank mod from new era that supposedly fixxes the leaning issue also, rolex has it on his in the "bling" thread, i have never used it.... and neither has he,lol. so i can't comment on how well it works. i avoided it because it mounts to the rear shock tower and thats just asking for trouble the way i drive mine.
 
thxs for the help guys i was planning on buying tht at one time but i thought it would worsen the problem but oh well i''ll buy one and see how it works once again thxs
