The Savage Arms Impulse Hog Hunter delivers straight-pull bolt action speed with traditional hunting rifle accuracy for demanding field conditions. This 6.5 Creedmoor platform combines Savage's proven AccuTrigger system with their innovative straight-pull design, enabling faster follow-up shots on moving targets.
What Makes This Different
The Impulse action eliminates the traditional bolt lift and rotation, allowing shooters to cycle the action with a simple pull-push motion while maintaining sight picture. This straight-pull system reduces cycling time by approximately 30% compared to conventional bolt actions. The 20-inch threaded barrel provides optimal velocity for 6.5 Creedmoor while maintaining maneuverability in dense cover.
