The Savage Impulse Big Game is a straight-pull bolt-action rifle chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor (brand part no. 57859), built for hunters who want to cycle a fast, silent follow-up shot on game without lifting their cheek off the stock. Savage’s Impulse action trades the usual rotating bolt handle for a straight rearward pull, letting a shooter run the action nearly as fast as a semi-auto while keeping true bolt-action reliability. An OD Green stock paired with a tungsten metal finish gives the rifle a rugged, weather-resistant look, and the 22-inch barrel matches 6.5 Creedmoor’s ideal balance of velocity and handling. With a 4+1 round capacity, the Impulse Big Game keeps multiple follow-up shots ready for deer, antelope, or other big game.
