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.”

For the ultimate in accuracy and functionality in the field, the 110 KLYM includes a user-adjustable 1½-4-pound AccuTrigger, a tang safety, a blueprinted action, a drilled and tapped receiver (8-40) and a one-piece Picatinny rail. Available calibers include options from 6.5 Creedmoor to .300 WSM.

The Impulse KLYM is also available in calibers from 6.5 Creedmoor to .300 WSM.
