Our partners at Savage continue to burn the candle at both ends, with unrelenting commitment to producing cutting-edge firearms. Today, we’re here to give you a first look at an exciting new Savage rifle series: KLYM.
As you’ll see in the exclusive HuntStand video above, the new KLYM rifles feature a unique FBT carbon-fiber thumbhole stock with an adjustable comb, and a Proof Research carbon-fiber wrapped stainless-steel barrel. Choose from the reliable Savage 110 traditional bolt action, or the new Savage Impulse straight-pull bolt action. The result is a lightweight, nimble rifle platform that allows you to get aggressive in your quest for wild beasts off the beaten path.ion
Our team was among the first to field test the new KLYM rifles. If you’ve been paying attention, we dropped a teaser last week in “Prize of the Plains,” a HuntStand Original Film. If you missed the film, check it out right here.
