Savage KLYM Rifles Lead

Savage Arms has announced the introduction of its new KLYM rifle series, featuring exclusive partnerships with PROOF Research and Fine Ballistic Tools (FBT) to deliver lightweight rifles that are accurate and durable. There are currently two models available: The bolt-action 110 KLYM and the straight-pull Impulse KYLM.

Both KLYM models feature a PROOF Research carbon-fiber wrapped, steel cut and 5/8x24” threaded barrel. When combined with the FBT custom carbon-fiber stock, these rifles will allow hunters to go further and hunt harder with significantly less weight. The stocks also include one-button adjustable comb height, two sling studs and a Magnaswitch system installed.

“The KLYM line truly is revolutionary for big-game hunting,” said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing at Savage. “PROOF and FBT helped take us to the next level. Hunters accustomed to long hunts and backcountry expeditions that span multiple days and numerous climbs will appreciate the lightweight platform that maintains the ultimate in accuracy and reliability. Everything about this rifle was made to perform as it stands up to the elements and puts the latest technologies in these comprehensive big-game rifles.”

5 Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before My First Elk Hunt

I grew up hunting whitetails in the Midwest, and while I thought I was in “elk shape” on my first western hunt, I quickly learned that chasing elk at high elevation requires an entirely different level of fitness. You’ll likely hike for hours, oftentimes at high elevation, and many of trails you’ll follow are filled with deadfall and uneven rocks. If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts. 

Ruger Halts Production of Several Models

On Oct. 13 Ruger issued a memo to distributors informing them that after an exhaustive internal review of its product portfolio—that weighed demand, manufacturing expense and complexity—production of four revolvers has been halted. Pending orders were cancelled.

Smart Optics 101

Smart optics are changing the way hunters and shooters approach distance, accuracy and confidence in the field. Rangefinding riflescopes, dial-up turrets and integrated ballistic systems are no longer gimmicks. They work, but only if you take the time to understand them and use them to their full potential.
