Who This Is For
The Savage Impulse Predator is built for serious predator hunters who call in coyotes, hunt open country for foxes, or work livestock-protection duty on the ranch. If you need a flat-shooting, fast-cycling rifle that won't slow you down when a second or third shot counts, this is your gun.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose .22-250 Remington for predator hunting?
The .22-250 Remington is one of the fastest factory cartridges available, pushing lightweight bullets at velocities exceeding 3,800 fps. This translates to an extremely flat trajectory, minimal wind drift compared to slower rounds, and devastating terminal performance on coyote-sized predators — even at ranges beyond 400 yards. It's an ideal balance of recoil, speed, and effectiveness for varmint and predator applications.
What makes the straight-pull action faster than a traditional bolt?
Unlike a conventional bolt-action that requires you to lift, pull back, push forward, and close the bolt handle, the Savage Impulse straight-pull design cycles the action with a single rearward-and-forward motion. This keeps your cheek weld and sight picture intact between shots, dramatically reducing split times — a critical advantage when hunting predators that travel in groups or react quickly to a missed shot.
Can I mount a suppressor on the Savage Impulse Predator?
Yes. The 20-inch carbon steel barrel is factory threaded at 5/8-24 inches, which is the standard thread pitch for most .22-caliber suppressors and muzzle devices sold in the United States. Simply remove any included thread protector and attach a compatible suppressor or muzzle brake. Running this rifle suppressed further reduces the disturbance to nearby game, making it an excellent choice for multi-animal predator calling sessions.
