The picture on the Savage Arms web site is accurate with regards to the appearance. The barrel is a 20" #1 contour. The DBM, frame and trigger guard are composite to save on weight. The recoil pad looks to be a 1" Parchmyr Decelerator. The action looks to be a Savage standard SA that has been skeletonized and the bolt fluted to cut weight. The finish is a blue matte. The stock appears to be walnut with a factory finish and simple checkering. If you like the fit and feel of a Remington Model 7, then you will like the Savage LW Hunter.
I am real interested in the 243 but with it being new, I would also like some 1st hand experience. Like groups and the such. If I don't find anyone, I may end up doing the max1 or the 11bth.
