All the other manufacturers are still waiting to see if a Savage is going to blow up so they can say "See, we told you so!". Since that "Ain't gonna happen", and they have already warned that smokeless in a muzzleloader isn't safe, they would look pretty stupid to start making a gun that they said isn't safe in the first place.
