Description
The Savage 10/110 Engage Hunter XP 300 Win Mag, With 3X9X40 Scope, 24″ Barrel, Synthetic, Black, 3 rd is a complete, ready-to-hunt bolt-action rifle package. It’s a long-range hunting rig chambered in the powerful 300 Winchester Magnum, featuring a factory-mounted 3-9x40mm scope and a synthetic stock, all for a price that’s tough to beat. I’ve put a couple of boxes of ammo through this setup, and here’s my take on what you’re getting for your money.
Key Features
- Complete Out-of-the-Box Package: Comes with a mounted and bore-sighted 3-9x40mm scope, so you can head to the range to zero it, not the gunsmith.
- 300 Win Mag Power: This cartridge is a flat-shooting powerhouse, ideal for elk, moose, and long-range western hunting.
- AccuTrigger: Savage’s user-adjustable trigger is a standout feature, offering a crisp, clean break that’s a huge upgrade over traditional factory triggers.
- 24″ Barrel: Provides optimal velocity for the 300 Win Mag, helping you get the most out of the cartridge’s potential.
- Durable Synthetic Stock: Lightweight and weather-resistant, perfect for tough conditions in the Missouri backcountry or out west.

Let’s talk about that scope for a second. It’s a basic 3-9×40, which is the perfect workhorse magnification for 90% of big game hunting scenarios. Is it a premium, illuminated, first-focal-plane optic? No. But it’s a solid starter that’s already mounted, and it gets you in the game. The real star here is the Savage action and that fantastic AccuTrigger. The rifle itself is drop-in ready for aftermarket stocks from brands like Boyd’s or Bell and Carlson if you ever want to upgrade, but the synthetic one handles business just fine. At a total package price of $501.86, you’re getting serious capability without breaking the bank.
Who This Rifle Is For
This is for the hunter who needs reach and power. Think Missouri whitetail hunters targeting the far side of a bean field, or someone planning a western hunt for elk or mule deer where shots can stretch out. It’s also a great first “serious” big game rifle for a new hunter who wants a complete setup without the hassle and extra cost of piecing optics and bases together. The package is straightforward, effective, and ships to Missouri and compliant US states.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The value is undeniable—a scoped 300 Win Mag for this price is a strong deal. The AccuTrigger is consistently excellent. The 24-inch barrel is the right length for this cartridge. It’s a true ready-to-hunt package that requires no additional purchases to get started.
Cons: The 300 Win Mag has significant recoil; it’s not a casual plinking round. Ammo cost is higher than common calibers like .308. The included scope is functional but basic; serious long-range shooters will likely upgrade it down the line. Here’s the thing—you’re paying for a capable rifle first, and the scope is a bonus to get you shooting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the scope already mounted and bore-sighted?
A: Yes, the 3-9x40mm scope comes mounted on the receiver using Savage’s factory bases and rings. It is bore-sighted at the factory, meaning it should be on paper at 100 yards, but you must finalize the zero at the range for your specific ammunition.
Q: What kind of accuracy can I expect from this rifle?
A: With the AccuTrigger and free-floated barrel, these rifles are typically capable of 1 to 1.5 MOA groups with quality factory ammunition. That’s more than enough for ethical big game hunting at extended ranges. The 300 Win Mag itself is a inherently accurate cartridge known for its long-range performance.
Q: Can I use different scope rings or bases if I want to change the optic?
A: Absolutely. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Savage 110 pattern bases. Popular brands like Weaver, Leupold, and Warne make bases that will fit, allowing you to mount virtually any standard rifle scope you choose when you’re ready to upgrade.
