Core Values
THINK LIKE A GUNSMITH
We take accountability for every shot made with Savage. Just like a local gunsmith does. It’s why we hand-test and verify the accuracy and performance of every barrel, trigger and action of every gun that leaves our U.S. facilities. The gunsmith “custom stock” mentality is ingrained in every aspect of the Savage experience.
MAKE EVERY SHOOTER BETTER
We make better firearms to make better shooters. Period. Our definition of accuracy is a guarantee found in every shot. We live to make you squarely confident in every moment with consistent accuracy the competition has simply never matched.
HONOR AMERICAN INGENUITY
We are proud but humble, and work to honor the American ingenuity and no-nonsense approach our consumers take with them every time they step into a stand, or up to the range

AccuFit

The new Savage AccuFit system uses an exclusive combination of interchangeable comb risers and length-of-pull inserts to create a custom fit for any shooter.

AccuStock

This rigid aluminum rail system is firmly embedded in the stock throughout the fore-end of select Savage rifles. Rather than uni-directionally engaging the action at one or two points, the AccuStock™ engages it three-dimensionally along its entire length.

Floating Bolt Head

Because the Savage floating bolt head is designed to allow a few thousandths of an inch of movement, it can adjust itself for a perfect fit typically only found in rifles with hand-lapped locking lugs.

Factory-Blueprinted Actions

On select long-range and target rifles, Savage takes the extra step of individually truing and blueprinting its actions, much like a custom gunsmith would do. But we do it right in the factory before those rifles are even assembled.

Precision Rifled Barrels

Savage proudly employs both specialized machinery as well as experienced operators to ensure our rifle barrels are geometrically perfect. Each and every centerfire barrel is checked and, if needed, custom-straightened.

Headspace Control

By threading Savage barrels into place with their individual action and bolt, we form a hand-fit, perfectly-matched set that is secured with a barrel locknut. This zero-tolerance approach to headspace helps provides the accuracy of custom rifles from factory firearms.

AccuTrigger

The first-of-its-kind AccuTrigger system is easily adjustable by the shooter, offers a light, clean pull with no creep, and prevents the firearm from discharging if jarred or dropped.
