Hello Savage Shooters! We are always looking for new additions to our line up and the Short Action Sporter stock has been requested more and more (in the configuration below).
Thought I would see what response Savage Shooters.com could add to it.
Fire away..........

I really like the idea. I have one of these on a 700 I am giving to my nephew for a high school graduation present. If you can, try And lighten it up as much as possible. Outside of McM and Manner there are very limited light options for a Savage. A budget lightweight stock would be a winner IMHO.
Don't forget the southpaws!
Yes! I’ve been emailing you about this for over a year! Short actions outsell long actions by 3:1 at least. Bigger market for you. These are fantastic stocks. I’ll out my McMillan on hold if you are seriously producing these?
Seems like alot of short actions are being sold, cause of the price and ease to build what you want.
Not alot of options for light weight stocks other than Mcmillan or Manners
Ditto that! Good synthetic stock options for us lefties that don't cost $600+ or require waiting 9-12 months to get it are non-existent. I would much prefer a synthetic sporter stock that's under 2-lbs, but as a lefty I know beggars can't be choosers. A LH short-action option for the Target/Competition and/or M40 stocks would also be greatly appreciated.Quote:

I would definitely love to see this available. I have a handful of short action Savages that need good stocks.
I am curious as to why it's only long action in the first place. But I would be down for one if you went short...
Historically OEM manufactures sold way more long action rifles than short action. The 6.5 Creedmoor and a few others previous to it has really pushed the short action up in numbers in the last 5 to 10 years.
Any idea on a timeline?Quote:

Just sent an email. Got a polite reply from Tory
I'm interested for sure.
Any chance of a long action heavy barrel center feed bottom bolt release in a m40?
Sign me up, 1 would take 3 at this point!
approximate weight?
Any info on the possibility of this?
Personally I don't consider 2.25 # to be lightweight, when the factory plastic stock is 24 oz. and the factory walnut LWH stock is 27 oz.Quote:

Lighter and cheaper than the H-S

Winchester never built a true short action until 1982
I would take two of them
Please build long and short action versions for us lefties!
I am very interested!
That’s what I wanted for my 284 build wish I could have gotten it
This would be an excellent stock to add in. Hard to find the more “hunter” style stocks that aren’t laminate.
