Old model, no longer in production.
I searched high and low and could not find the answer. My guess would be Drake Associates since the make the Stealth and Stealth Evolution chassis for Savage. Just a guess though. Are you looking to buy one?
Hello fellas, I bought one from Classic Firearms a few weeks ago, this is one heck of a rifle, one ragged hole with 168 FGMM, im thrilled. This model has some nice features, McCann Industries MIRS Rail, very nice magazine system, Accurate Mags, and the Stock, I would like to know who made it.
The only negative thing i noticed is the bolt travel is not smooth, sticks a little as i push and pull, even without loading a round, any ideas on that ?
I think I found who stock this is,
McRees Precision
Drake does not make any chassis. They have MDT, CADEX, etc make chassis to their specs. I have one of their Hunter/Stalker chassis systems, and it is essentially an MDT LSS with some upgrades that they spec'd out.Originally Posted by scootergisme
As DavidD stated, McRees was the manufacturer of the BA Tactical chassis. I had a couple and miss them. They were built like tanks. Very solid, heavy, and the ones with the PRS2 had plenty of adjustment for any size shooter. A few months back a few came up on ebay and sold for about $450 or so IIRC. For a tactical/bench gun I would prefer the BA Tactical stock. For a hunting rifle or something like PRS I would prefer the Stealth (modified MDT LSS) as it's more lightweight and maneuverable.

According to Savage- and Drake Industries- the Stealth chassis is made by Drake:

I'm holding a 110 Stealth in .338 I just purchased a few weeks ago- no maker identification. Why are you suggesting the info on Savage's website is incorrect?
The Savage website does not state that Drake makes the chassis. It simply states: "...mated to a custom version of the Drake Hunter/Stalker monolithic chassis, which has been modified to Savage’s specifications."
Drake's website states (https://drakeassociates.us/product/h...ersal-chassis/) "...Hunter Stalker LWSS Chassis is made Exclusively for Drake Associates by Modular Driven Technologies/MDT"
The one right now for sale on eBay (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Savage-L-A-...k/323821665091) in the 5th picture shows a statement on the side of the receiver of "MDT MADE EXCLUSIVELY FOR DRAKE ASSOCIATES", which matches the one in my hand perfectly.
MDT's website (https://mdttac.com/us_en/partners-of-mdt) states: "Our MDT chassis is the foundation of Savage's Law Enforcement Series rifle. The 110 BA Stealth features factory Blue Printed Savage Action, M-LOK forend, One-Piece Picatinny Rail, Fab Defense GL-SHOCK Buttstock, Muzzle Brake."
The two Stealths I used to have (never had a 338, but its minimally different) had MDT milled into the chassis just forward of the recoil lug cutout.
I say again, Drake does not make a chassis. They have MDT and CADEX make them to their custom specifications. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Drake Industries and have plenty of experience with several of their products. Huge fan. Just trying to clear up that they do not make a chassis.

I pulled my Savage 10 BA Stealth barreled action out of the chassis. MDT is milled in the forend area of the chassis. Interesting..........
