Long-range precision demands a rifle engineered for stability, repeatability, and clean triggers. For target shooters dialing in at 1000 yards, the right platform removes variables so you can focus on wind calls and ballistics.

SAVAGE ARMS 12 is built specifically with 1000-yard target shooting in mind. This single-shot bolt-action rifle from the Savage Arms Target Series is available chambered in 223 Rem or 308 Win and features a button-rifled stainless steel barrel for lasting performance.

Design highlights that matter on the range

The action is a single-shot bolt that simplifies feeding and locking consistency—important for extreme accuracy. The stainless finish and button-rifled 30″ barrel deliver barrel life and uniform twist characteristics (1:12) that match well to common 308 match bullets. At 12.65 lb overall weight and a 50″ overall length, the platform resists movement between shots, improving cadence and vertical dispersion. Capacity is 1, emphasizing precision over volume.

AccuTrigger and optics readiness

The user-adjustable AccuTrigger lets you set a crisp, safe break to suit your shooting style without gunsmith work. The action is drilled and tapped for scope mounts—standard for competition rigs—so you can quickly mount a long-range optic and maintain zero. View product details and pricing

The case for .308 Win at 1000 yards

The provided configuration lists caliber as 308 Win, a proven choice for long-range target work. .308 offers a wide selection of heavy-for-caliber match bullets and predictable ballistics. With the 30″ barrel and 1:12 twist, you’ll find optimal stabilization for many 168–190 gr match bullets while maintaining manageable recoil—key for follow-up shots and spotting impacts from the bench or prone.

Ergonomics and stock

The satin wood laminate stock balances stability and aesthetics. For many shooters, this stock provides a rigid bedding surface that reduces shift under recoil and environmental changes. Combined with the rifle’s weight, it’s a stable firing platform without resorting to heavy aftermarket chassis immediately.
