Is the above new rifle a control feed or push feed ?

The rim diameter is the same as the 300 win mag and the 300 WSMs. I don't have first hand knowledge but it stands to reason they would use the same Push Feed Bolt Head. Been looking at big bores lately and am glad you asked the question.
None of the newer center-feed rifles are CRF - CRF died with the staggered feed actions as they're why it was needed to ensure proper feeding.
Thanks
J.baker, so you are saying savage has used controlled feed in the past ? I have never seen one I would be curious to see a picture of an action if someone has one
I have a SS control feed flat back.Quote:

Savage made CRF for the stagger feed WSM and RUM actions. Most were large shank. I've also seen a few 300win that were small shank CRF.Quote:
