Savage Introduces New Line of Precision Chassis Rifles
The new line of tack drivers includes model 110, B22, B17 and A22 rifles, all with aluminum chassis and adjustable stocks from MDT.
In conjunction with Savage Arms’ sponsorship of the 2019 GAP Grind/Bushnell PRO/AM on Oct. 4, the gunmaker has released three new precision rifles with chassis from Modular Driven Technologies (MDT).
The three rifles mark the launch of a new family of Savage firearms dubbed The Precision Series.
“We’ve been working with the team at Modular Driven Technologies to realize the full potential of these Savage rifles, and the results are outstanding,” said Beth Shimanski, Savage’s Director of Marketing.
“The MDT chassis are an ideal match for these Savage actions,” said Jessica Treglia, Sr. Brand Manager at Savage. “The pairings will allow shooters to custom fit every aspect of these rifles to suit their needs.”
110 Elite Precision
First up is what Savage is calling the pinnacle of the latest design of its venerable Model 110 bolt action. With its Cerakoted aluminum chassis from MDT, the Savage 110 Elite Precision rifle weighs a hefty 12.5 lbs., which helps absorb recoil and stay steady for the longest shots. The overhaul includes all the upgrades long-range precision shooters demand today, including:
- Savage factory blueprinted action
- MDT ACC aluminum chassis with fully adjustable stock for LOP and cheek weld
- ARCA Rail along entire length of chassis
- Stainless steel, flash nitride target receiver
- Titanium nitride bolt body
- 1.5 – 4 lbs. user-adjustable AccuTrigger
- Self-timing taper aligned muzzle brake
- MDT Vertical Grip and AICS magazine
The Savage 110 Elite Precision rifle will be available in .223 Rem, .308 Win., 6.5 Creedmoor, 6mm Creedmoor with an MSRP of $1,999 and in .300 Win Mag, .300 Norma, .300 PRC, and .338 Lapua with an MSRP of $2,149.
