Savage Arms Unveils New High-Performance, Long-Range Chassis RiflesSince 1894, Savage Arms has built an iron-clad reputation for accuracy, innovation and reliability. That proud tradition continues as the iconic gunmaker partners with Ashbury Precision Ordnance and Drake Associates to develop a lineup of tack-driving “chassis-style” guns capable of incredible feats of multi-discipline practical and tactical long-range performance.Savage joined forces with the long-distance gunnery gurus at Drake Associates to expand its Law Enforcement Series’ BA lineup of long-range chassis rifles with the new Model 10/110 BA Stealth. It teamed with Ashbury’s arsenal experts to create the Model 10 Savage Ashbury Precision Rifle.These new high-performance long-range rifles feature a custom look and feel that’s unlike anything else on the firing line. They are designed for serious shooters interested in testing their limits—whether that means extending their effective range another 100 to 300 yards, or joining the exclusive “one-mile club.” Accuracy has long been a Savage hallmark, and this latest crop of long arms cements the company’s credentials for delivering downrange precision. As a bonus to shooters on a budget, the new chassis guns yield stellar groups and sub-minute-of-angle performance matching that of custom-built guns costing far more than these factory-made masterpieces.To reach this pinnacle of performance, Savage dovetailed its high-performance firing systems into the industry-leading Ashbury chassis and Drake chassis made by MDT. Savage’s contributions to the effort include an extremely accurate trigger and stock, plus a floating bolt head and meticulous head-space control. For their part, the Ashbury and Drake frames are rock-solid, monolithic marvels machined from a single aluminum billet.Tackling a process typically performed by aftermarket gunsmiths, Savage goes the extra mile by performing secondary grinding on the action, bolt, bolt lugs, bolt lug recesses and recoil lug to make all of these individually forged surfaces a perfectly matched set.Savage also gave the Drake chassis a facelift, hiring an outside design firm to tweak the external aesthetics without affecting the chassis’ unrivaled functionality. The result was a unique look that sets the Savage rifle apart from anything else at the range.While Savage’s venerable F Class rifles enjoy a loyal following among serious marksmen, these new shooting platforms elevate the ability to snipe bull’s-eyes at extreme ranges to a whole new plateau.A Closer LookThe Model 10 Savage Ashbury Precision Rifle is built to excel at recreational shooting, hunting and tactical competition. Available chambered in 308 Win. and 6.5 Creedmoor, it features a factory-blueprinted Model 10 barreled action paired with Ashbury’s new folding Saber Modular Rifle Chassis System (MRCS-AR).The modular, upgradeable and reconfigurable chassis features a double-locking, folding shoulder stock, along with an octagonal aluminum hand guard with M-LOK attachment system. The Model 10 Savage Ashbury Precision Rifle also features a Magpul MOE pistol grip and buttstock, 24-inch barrel with 5/8-24 threaded muzzle, and includes one Magpul PMAG AICS 10-round detachable magazine.Savage’s industry-leading, accuracy-boosting AccuTrigger is standard issue. The proprietary technology allows shooters to quickly and easily dial in the exact amount of trigger pull to match their personal taste. As a result, shooters enjoy the crispest, cleanest, lightest pull possible, without sacrificing safety or paying a gunsmith to perform the modifications.The Model 10 and Model 110 Stealth rifles represent lighter, more compact additions to Savage’s popular long-range BA family. Both feature a factory-blueprinted Model 10/110 barreled action, which is machined from a solid aluminum billet and married to a Drake Hunter/Stalker monolithic chassis customized to fit Savage’s specifications. As a testament to the platform’s potential for going the distance, a similar Savage/Drake combination recently took first place for a National Guard Team and 8th place overall at the 2015 U.S. Army International Sniper Competition.Both versions of the BA Stealth offer an M-LOK fore-end and Picatinny rail for easy configuration. And, like the Model 10 Savage Ashbury Precision Rifle, they also feature Savage’s adjustable AccuTrigger system.Chambered in 300 Win. Mag. and 338 Lapua Mag., the long-action Model 110 BA Stealth sports a 5/8-24 threaded muzzle with brake, Drake one-piece long scope rail and Fab Defense GLR-16 six-position buttstock with adjustable cheek riser.The short-action Model 10 BA Stealth is available in 308 Win. and 6.5 Creedmoor options. It features a 5/8-24 threaded muzzle with protector, EGW one-piece scope rail and Fab Defense GL-SHOCK six-position, shock-absorbing buttstock with adjustable cheek riser.right511810Weights And MeasuresWhile the new precision rifles aren’t necessarily lighter than traditional hunting rifles, they are lighter than Savage’s previous chassis gun, the Model 110 BA, thanks to a sleeker design that shaves metal and ounces from the platform.For example, both chamberings of the Model 110 BA Stealth tip the scale at 11.15 pounds, compared to 15 pounds for the original Model 110 BA. While an 11-pound gun is far from a featherweight, trimming nearly five pounds of heft still helps lighten the overall load, and is certainly a boon once a scope and bipod are added to the rifle. Both the 300 Win. Mag. and 338 Lapua are 49 inches long and feature a 24-inch barrel.-9144079375The Model 10 BA Stealth is even lighter, weighing in at just 9.2 pounds. The 308 Win. version measures 42? inches long overall, including its 20-inch barrel, while the 6.5 Creedmoor option has a 24-inch barrel and spans 45 ? inches. right269875The Model 10 Savage Ashbury Precision Rifle weighs 9.85 pounds. It has a 34 ?-inch overall length (with side-folded buttstock), measures 43 3/8 inches with fully collapsed buttstock, and stretches out to 46 5/8 inches with the buttstock fully extended. Collectively, the Model 10/110 BA Stealth and Model 10 Savage Ashbury Precision Rifle offer serious long-range shooters exciting new options for extending their downrange reach while enjoying both practical and tactical long-range performance.### ................
