Barrel Specifications

At the heart of the Savage Model 12 is its 26-inch barrel. Crafted from premium-grade steel, the barrel is designed to optimize the ballistic performance of the .243 Winchester cartridge. The longer barrel length ensures the powder charge entirely burned, providing maximum velocity and superior accuracy.

One of the standout features of the Savage Model 12 is its Target Accutrigger. This innovative trigger system allows for a highly adjustable pull weight, letting shooters fine-tune it to their preference. The Accutrigger’s design includes a safety blade that prevents the firearm from discharging unless the trigger is deliberately pulled, adding an extra layer of safety while ensuring a crisp, clean break every time.
