Gun Review: BA 10 Stealth Evolution is meaner, not leaner (VIDEO)

By Eve Flanigan

Features
New from Savage Arms in 2018 is a series of bolt action rifles called the 10 (short action) and 110 (long action) BA Stealth Evolution.  Available chamberings include .223 Remington, .300 Winchester Magnum, .308, 6 Creedmoor. 6.5 Creedmoor, and .338 Lapua.
This long-range specialist is an update to the  original 10 BA Stealth, released in 2017.  Savage installed a slew of upgrades and changes to make this model stand on its own merits in the product line.  In this test, we put the 6.5 Creedmoor model through its paces.
Leading the way is a three-slot compensator that substantially dampens recoil without adding to ambient noise. It’s visually striking and acts as an endcap to the tactical look of the rifle.
A fluted but heavy, 24-inch carbon steel barrel with 8 5R twist, helps to insure accuracy. Encasing the lower half of the barrel is a bronze-cerakoted aluminum handguard with M-Lok and a five-inch strip of Picatinny rail insert on each side. Pic rail makes another appearance on the top rail, a whopping 18 inches of space to attach optical gear. A sling swivel mount under the handguard makes a perfect sling or bipod attachment point.
A veritable mile of rail gives the operator lots
