Savage Drops a New 224 Valkyrie: Introducing the 110 Prairie Hunter

Savage is catering to all of the small caliber fans and varmint hunters out there with the launch of the 110 Prairie Hunter. This rifle is chambered in 224 Valkyrie, which is a wise choice by Savage because this cartridge is known to have less wind drift and drop than any caliber in it’s class while maintaining less recoil than any cartridge that offers similar ballistics. All of this allows the hunter to put more rounds on target.

H&P Manufacturing Admits They Have the Ugliest Suppressor and They are Proud of It – SHOT Show 2019

One reason that the Ugly Suppressor is so cool is because the gasses are not designed to stay trapped within the suppressor itself. Instead, the gasses flow through an elongated path which allow them to cool without generating extra back pressure. This suppressor design is perfect for semi-auto guns because the ejection speed is not affected by a pressure spike.

They have dubbed this action the “digital action” not because it is electronic, but because it operates by the power of your finger (digit).
