This 10ML-II uses a bolt-carried 209 primer system that feeds the primer through the bolt nose into a sealed breechplug. The breechplug uses a replaceable vent liner, supporting serviceability over time. The action is dual-pillar bedded for consistent barreled action support.
The rifle is built with a 24-inch stainless steel barrel and a matching stainless receiver, both in a brushed stainless finish. The barrel features eight-groove rifling with a 1:24 twist. The receiver is factory drilled and tapped for scope bases.
Savage equips this model with the user-adjustable AccuTrigger and a three-position tang safety. The open sights include a ramped fiber-optic front and an adjustable fiber-optic rear for clear sighting in a range of lighting conditions.
The laminated hardwood stock has a brown laminated finish and includes a pistol grip, straight comb, checkering, sling swivel studs, and a recoil pad. Length of pull is approximately 13.5 inches, and overall weight is about 9 pounds.
