Savage is the highest producer of bolt action rifles in the US. (And likely other countries.) They have routinely placed #9 most popular firearms company in the US & #12 Worldwide. Those a #9 ranking may not seem high, but to put it in prospective, it’s still in the top 10 going up against brands like Glock, Smith & Wesson, & Ruger with their enormous line of pistols; and companies like CZ, Remington & Tikka aren’t even in the top 25! (Let alone the more custom, higher priced bolt action/hunting rifles.)
