SAVAGE IMPULSE BIG GAME – AMERICA’S FIRST STRAIGHT-PULL RIFLE
When Blaser introduced the first modern straight-pull bolt-action rifle in 1993, the world of sporting rifles got turned upside down. The rules had changed. Traditionalists despised the 180-degree departure from what we have come to know and love – the classic M98-type design boltaction rifle that has served us well for over a hundred years, be it in military or sporting guise. The more “modern” hunter, however, grabbed on to the idea and straight-pull design rifles gained a foothold in the market, despite the initial scepticism by gun writers the world over. I was one of those that predicted the early demise of these rifles. I was wrong, and so were many others who shared my opinion. Heym followed suit shortly afterwards with their own straight-pull design, the SR30, and Blaser’s R93 was added to the ever-growing list. FRANCOIS VAN EMMENES
