Hogs don't stand around waiting for you to run a bolt. That's the whole idea behind the Savage Impulse Hog Hunter. Its straight-pull action cycles with a quick pull and push, no lifting, no rolling your wrist, so you stay behind the scope and get on the next pig in the sounder before the group scatters. Savage's Hexlock system uses six hardened steel bearings to lock the bolt into the barrel extension, giving you that speed without giving up the lockup you expect from a hunting rifle. The bolt handle can even be swapped to either side and rotated to the angle that fits your hand, which is a nice touch for lefties or anyone shooting off a tripod.
This version pairs the Impulse action with a 20 inch medium-contour carbon steel barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor, a combination that keeps overall length at 41.5 inches so it swings easily out of a truck window, a blind, or thick bottomland brush. The 1:8 twist stabilizes heavy-for-caliber bullets, and the muzzle comes threaded 5/8×24 for a suppressor or brake right out of the box. Up top, a 20 MOA rail is machined directly into the aluminum receiver, so there are no bases to loosen up and you get extra elevation for stretching shots past typical hog distances.
The OD Green synthetic stock rides on Savage's AccuStock aluminum bedding rail, and the AccuFit system lets you tune comb height and length of pull with the included inserts until the rifle points naturally with your optic. Add the user-adjustable AccuTrigger and you've got a crisp, clean break you can set to your preference without a trip to a gunsmith.
At around 8.5 pounds bare, it settles nicely on sticks or a rest, feeds from a detachable 4-round box magazine, and does double duty as a deer rifle when hog season slows down. Fast, accurate, American-made, and adjustable to fit just about anybody. That's a hard package to argue with.
Instead of lifting the bolt handle, rotating, and pulling back, the Impulse cycles with a straight pull rearward and a push forward. That keeps your eye in the scope and shaves real time off follow-up shots, which matters when a sounder of hogs starts moving. The Hexlock system locks the bolt with six steel bearings, so you get the speed without sacrificing a solid lockup.
Yes, the 20 inch barrel comes threaded 5/8-24 from the factory, which is the standard pitch for most 6.5 Creedmoor suppressors and muzzle brakes. The shorter barrel also keeps the overall package manageable once a can is attached, which is one reason this configuration is popular with suppressor owners.
No iron sights or optic are included. The receiver has a one-piece 20 MOA rail machined directly into it, so you just need rings and a scope to get set up. The built-in cant gives you extra elevation adjustment if you plan on shooting at longer distances.
More than most. The bolt handle can be moved to either side of the action and rotated to different angles, so a left-handed hunter can set it up to cycle with the support hand. The safety is tang-mounted as well, which works the same from either shoulder.
