I've been waiting for this to be released.
I called savage and they won't be available till early spring.
Long action only.
I have two blaser rifles and am itching to have an American made totally ambi straight pull rifle.

How do u like the blaser rifles? I know they r pricey

Very nice... Interesting and certainly something worth keeping an eye on and maybe grabbing when they hit the shelves

I have a Tac 2 and an R8.
Awesome, but expensive rifles.
I've shot many R93 models, but didn't like how you need to eject every round to unload the rifle.
Once the R8 model was introduced, I bought the parts individually, as I couldn't afford to buy a complete rifle.
Once you go straight pull, your turn bolts will collect dust.
The savage won't be as quick as the blaser R8, due to the added length of the receiver to accommodate the detachable magazine.
The R8 trigger group is also the magazine, which shaves a couple of inches off the OAL of the rifle and a couple of Oz's of weight too.
Even with the added length, cycling the Impulse will be a lot quicker and smoother than a turn bolt.

I almost bought the stock/action when it was on sale and then a barrel/bolt kit later but I couldn’t drop the cash on it. I may give the savage a try if I can get a deal.

The impulse should be a good deal for American shooters and hunters that can't afford a blaser.

Preparing for a biden presidency I see.


They are kinda neat. Put irons and a 10 round acis mag on the hog hunter, maybe I'm in.


I fail to see for the MSRP how a henry long ranger wouldn't be superior though.

If remmington could get back in the game and make a good quality 7600, it has both beat.
