Description:
Savage Model 10XP (18815) New in factory box, unfired.
The rifle combines Savage's Model 10 bolt action with an aggressively tapered, medium-contour barrel set in a synthetic stock and covered in Mossy Oak Brush camouflage. It weighs 7 pounds, 4 ounces and is available in .204 Ruger, .223 Rem. and .22-250 Rem. Taking a closer look at the Predator Hunter's features reveals that a lot of thought from both sides went into its creation.
First, the Model 10 action was a sensible component on which to build the new rifle. Savage has relied on its rugged function for around 50 years, and it is still going strong in a host of models with various chamberings. With its cast set of baffles and collared bolt handle the machined bolt may appear ungainly, but it nonetheless performs its role admirably. An oversized bolt handle on the rifle makes the assembly look even more unbalanced, but its large grasping knob is a boon to hunters wearing gloves. The bolt's deeply recessed face is bordered by dual opposing locking lugs, one of which houses the extractor, and includes a plunger-style ejector. Throughout testing, the bolt fed cartridges from the four-round blind magazine to the chamber and expelled spent cases without fail. Two action screws—one at the front of the trigger guard and the other slightly behind the recoil lug—hold the barreled action to the stock and are surrounded by aluminum pillars to provide a stable bedding surface.
The medium-contour barrel represents an agreeable compromise between mobility and stability. At 22 inches long, it isn't difficult to quickly swing around brush when a coyote isn't looking, yet it certainly doesn't feel whippy. It emerges from the barrel lock nut a beefy 1.05 inches in diameter and quickly slims down to .74 inch at the muzzle, ending in a recessed target crown. In .204 Ruger and .22-250 Rem., the button rifling has a 1:12-inch RH twist, while the .223 Rem. version has a 1:9-inch RH twist.
A three-position safety slide resides on the tang where it is easily reached by the thumb. Its serrated surface is another nod to positive function with gloved hands. When it's time to show a coyote there's no such thing as a free meal, the AccuTrigger makes delivering the bill a clean, crisp experience. Removing the barreled action from the stock frees the AccuTrigger for adjustment from 1.5 to 6 pounds of pull weight.
Like the rest of the Predator Hunter's features, its stock was designed with a careful eye on function. The fore-end is slim and nicely rounded over its last 3 inches to facilitate securely placing it in the V formed by shooting sticks. While the dipping process used to coat the stock in the Mossy Oak Brush pattern makes for a somewhat slippery surface, panels of checkering on the fore-end and pistol grip are molded with enough depth to provide the needed bite for a solid grasp. Two sling swivel studs provide points for attaching a sling or bipod. The olive-drab, rubber buttpad is .75 inch thick at the heel and toe, but its concave shape reduces the thickness to .5 inch at its middle. The heel slightly angles forward to prevent the buttpad from hanging up on clothing when the rifle is brought to the shoulder. Four cross-members molded into the interior of the fore-end give the stock rigidity.
The Predator Hunter is devoid of iron sights, but Weaver-style bases come pre-mounted from the factory. Matching the rifle's exterior—save for the bolt body, AccuTrigger, bolt release lever and the two action screws—they too are dipped in Mossy Oak Brush.
