Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the Savage 112 Magnum Target a single-shot rifle?
The single-shot Magnum Target Action is a deliberate design choice for precision competition and long-range target shooting. By eliminating a magazine well, the action can be optimized for rigidity and consistent bolt lockup, which directly contributes to improved accuracy and repeatability — qualities that matter most at extreme distances with the .338 Lapua Magnum.
How does the AccuTrigger benefit long-range shooting?
Savage's user-adjustable Target AccuTrigger allows shooters to set the pull weight to their personal preference without compromising safety. A lighter, crisper trigger break reduces shooter-induced movement at the moment of firing, which is critical when engaging targets at 500 to 1,000+ yards where even the slightest input error translates to a significant miss downrange.
What kind of optics and accessories are compatible with this rifle?
The Savage 112 Magnum Target features a standard Picatinny-compatible receiver that accepts a wide range of scope rings and bases, making it compatible with most quality long-range riflescopes. Given the .338 Lapua's performance envelope, a high-magnification scope (10–25x or higher) with a first focal plane reticle and exposed turrets is recommended for dialing in shots at extended ranges.
