Savage Precision Elite 300PRC Rifling question

[otisthegoat]

I have a simple question that I've been having trouble finding an answer to. Here it is: I know Savage does have rifles with 5R rifling. Does the Savage Precision Elite have 5R rifling? Thanks for any and all help here.

Regards,
Jack

Only the EP 6CM chambered rifle is listed with 5R rifling.

Sergeant, thanks for your response. I had hoped that was just a typo- accidental ommission. But, you're probably right. But, why just do 5R on only one caliber??
thanks again,
Jack

I stopped asking why a long time ago.
Savage list's all type's of different rifling on the 110 Precision model, but not the Elite, so maybe a call to savage to clear it up might be in order.

The precision barrel on my impulse looked polygonal not square or smooth radius.

Slides, which caliber?

6.5PRC, rifling in a several years old 338lap 110 looks to be similar form.
