Savage Impulse Mountain Hunter .300 WSM Straight-Pull Rifle

The Savage Impulse Mountain Hunter is a .300 Winchester Short Magnum straight-pull rifle (brand part no. 57896) built for hunters who want magnum reach and the fastest possible follow-up shot without giving up bolt-gun accuracy. Savage pairs its straight-pull Impulse action with a Proof Research carbon fiber wrapped stainless steel barrel, cutting weight while keeping the barrel stiff and accurate for higher-altitude hunts. The user-adjustable AccuTrigger breaks clean between 1.5 and 4 pounds, and the AccuFit system lets shooters dial in length of pull and comb height on the gray synthetic stock, while AccuStock three-dimensional aluminum bedding locks the action in place for consistent accuracy. An ambidextrous, removable bolt handle and a 2-position tang safety make the Mountain Hunter comfortable for right- and left-handed shooters alike.
