Savage Arms has an elaborate history, some of it filled with interesting facts that aren’t as well-known as the accuracy of the rifles the company produces.
Vista Outdoor sold Savage Arms and its subsidiaries, Fox and Stevens, to Long Range Acquisition LLC, an investment group that includes Savage’s current president and CEO, Al Kasper, for a price of $170 million.
The Savage Arms Special Order Department may be the best-kept secret in the firearms industry—especially if you want a rifle chambered for a non-cataloged cartridge like the 9.3x62mm.
Scout rifles—first made popular by Gunsite founder Jeff Cooper more than three decades ago now—have experienced a revival of sorts in recent years. Among the latest additions to the market is the Savage Arms Model 11 Scout, having made its debut at SHOT Show 2015.
The Model 11/111 Hog Hunter stems from the Model 110 rifle action that has made Savage so popular. Designed with the nation's ever-growing feral pig population in mind, the Hog Hunter features a 20" barrel that comes factory threaded for any muzzle device that you might have in mind. And, starting this year, it became available in .338 Federal.
