Simpson thinks the Magpul PRS Gen3 stock is the best of the breed. Retail price was $2,400 while the Steyr SSG08, its primary competition at the time, sold for $4,900. The heavy 24-inch barrel had a muzzle brake and was available in. The Model 10 BA Law Enforcement, introduced in 2009, had a Magpul fully adjustable stock, a modified AR-style pistol grip made by Heckler & Koch, and an all-aluminum chassis replete with Picatinny rails. Savage was also one of the first major manufacturers to offer what is commonly referred to today as a chassis rifle.
A right-load, left-eject action made left-handed shooters equally happy. This was made possible by the addition of a second port on the left-hand side of the receiver, opposite the usual ejection port.ĭescribed as “left-load, right-eject,” the idea was adopted by Savage for its target rifles.
This model feeds from a single-stack mag and features a paddle release.ĭifferent ways have been tried to speed up the loading process, and one that became quite popular was operating the bolt with one hand while feeding cartridges with the other. The heart of the rifle is Savage’s 10/110 action, but what sets it apart is the billet aluminum chassis stock. Sending that many bullets downrange in only a few seconds is made difficult by the fact that the turn-bolt actions used in benchrest are single-shots. As wind flags respond to a chosen condition, benchrest shooters strive to machine-gun five or 10 shots into a group before the condition leaves.

The new Target Series of rifles also introduced a design idea that originated in benchrest competition. is built to Palma competition specifications. A similar rifle with a heavy 30-inch barrel in. If memory serves me correctly, its 6.5-284 and 6mm Norma BR chamberings were firsts among the major manufacturers. Called the Model 12 Precision Target, it has a heavy, 29-inch barrel and weighs close to 13 pounds. Back when a long-range shooting sport called F-Class was beginning to take off, Savage was first to mass-produce extremely accurate rifles built specifically for it. Savage has wasted little time through the years responding to trends in bolt-action centerfire rifles.
