Savage Model 10 Predator .204 question

Recently bought this gun on gunbroker,..can't remember ever seeing a Model 10 predator without a detachable magazine & a black non fluted barrel. Is this an older model or some kind of special run. I'm hoping it has the SF blind magazine with the 4.275" spacing...got a pile of bell and carlson stocks I'd like to put back in use. Anyway,...was hoping to get some early information before the gun shows up & a week or so.

I have one of the first runs when they hit the market a few years ago. The barrel is painted camo and not fluted. SF internal mag.

how do you like that model 10 predator, I just bought one in 22-250 today.

i have the mossy oak brush in 22-250. i think that model you got was a special make up for some dealer. example is cabelas has allot of special makeups of guns ie something unique to them so they can say cabelas is the only place that sells "this" model. so its a guess but i'd say it is a specal run model for some dealer.

I love my Predator in .204 Ruger. It's my go-to rifle when in the field lookin for vermin and predators. It's a great carry rifle. I also won quite a few 300 yard prone matches with her. The bottom line is, I'll NEVER sell it. ;D

I just bought one like the one in the fist picture, Mine is a 22-250, It is definately the best rifle I have owned so far, It shoots like a dream.
