Savage Arms now ships all 334 Stevens rifles that debuted earlier this year. Walnut and Synthetic models now ship nationwide. The Walnut version hosted on 6.5 Creedmoor also recently received high praise at the extensive annual outdoor life weapons test
Featuring a two-stage adjustable trigger, the Stevens 334 bolt action rifle comes in a choice of a Turkish walnut stock with a silver bolt or a black synthetic stock with a matching matte black action. This rifle is offered in three popular calibers with a 60 degree bolt rise to allow for faster loading on follow up shots, making it a suitable rifle choice for any hunter or shooter.
The response to these rifles from retailers has been strong, and Savage expects to see a large number of these rifles on the ranges this summer and in the woods this fall. Outdoor Life further legitimized these value-based rifles in their most recent gun test. Conducted annually, there are no favorites, shortcuts or edit buttons in this comprehensive test of the latest rifles the industry has to offer. Among its peers (and several with significantly higher prices), the 334 performed extraordinarily, taking home the “Great Buy, Hunting Rifle” award.
“The Stevens 334 Walnut was the most amazing weapon of the rifle test,” he wrote. outdoor life Photo editor John B. Snow. “While the stock is good enough, the metalwork and action design are basic, albeit in keeping with the rifle’s modest $489 price.”
“But handsome is so handsome, and the Stevens 334 wowed the entire test team once we started shooting it for precision. Its five-shot groups averaged less than ¾ MOA, making it one of the most accurate rifles in the test and easily the most accurate hunting rifle we tested. He shoots much better than he has a right to, it was our collective lesson.”
The features and performance of the Stevens 334 Rifles pack into an affordable and reliable rifle. They are available in several practical calibers and can be found throughout the country.
