Geez, my Ruger Alaskan in .375 Ruger only weighs 10lbs 4oz with gun, scope, rings and 4 rounds, and I consider that a heavy gun. These Savage's obviously would be better blind guns than carry guns.

My Grandfather always said " Kid...............if you meet more than one arsehole in a day, chances are you are the arsehole. "
Do you guys have a rough eta on these?
they are 8-9lbs with medium to heavy contour barrels. Not ultralight pencils.
My hell’s canyon long range with a 26” heavy barrel weighs 1.5lbs less than these guns bare.. which have a shorter barrel and lighter contour. This is way to heavy.. the days of carrying 11-12lb guns are long behind us.
You can buy a savage ultralight with a proof barrel for same price or less than this gun and it’s hovering around 5lbs.
No .223?
...and I know everything that shines ain't always gonna be gold.
I'd like to know about their compatibility with parts for the model 10/110. Do prefit savage barrels fit? Is action screw spacing the same? It looks like a chassis would need some modifications around the bolt handle... But would the rest of the footprint line up? Can't wait for more info to trickle out on these.

Why didn't they make the hog hunter take AICS magazines... the predator is a bit of a pig....
