Who This Rifle Is For
This package is built for the hunter who needs reliable, authoritative power for large, tough game. I’ve put rounds through similar setups, and the .338 Win Mag isn’t a casual plinker—it’s a purpose-driven tool. If your season involves elk in the Rockies, moose in Canada, or bear in dense timber where a single, decisive shot is non-negotiable, this is your rifle. It’s also for the hunter who values simplicity; the work of mounting and rough-sighting a scope is already done. You just need to finalize your zero and head out. That said, be honest about your recoil tolerance—this cartridge commands respect.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The value proposition is the biggest win here. Getting a rifle, a reputable Vortex scope, and mounts for this price is significant. The AccuTrigger is one of the best factory triggers available, and the .338 Win Mag is arguably one of the most versatile and potent North American big game cartridges. It’s a true long-range hammer.
Cons: Recoil is substantial—practice ammo is expensive, and you’ll feel it after a range session. The synthetic stock is functional but basic; it gets the job done without frills. The 7.9-pound weight, while manageable, isn’t ultra-light for long mountain hikes. Is it the right choice for whitetail in Missouri’s hardwoods? Probably overkill, but for its intended purpose, it’s a solid performer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the scope properly mounted and rings included?
A: Yes. The Vortex Crossfire II comes mounted in Savage-branded one-piece scope rings that are installed and torqued to spec at the factory. The system is bore-sighted, so you’ll be on paper at 100 yards for your final zero. It’s drop-in ready.
Q: What kind of accuracy can I expect?
A: The Savage 110 action has a well-earned reputation for out-of-the-box accuracy. With the adjustable AccuTrigger and a free-floated barrel, most shooters can achieve 1 to 1.5 MOA groups with quality factory ammunition. That’s more than enough for ethical hunting at the cartridge’s effective range.
Q: Is the rifle ready to ship?
A: This firearm is available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide. Remember, an FFL transfer is required for firearm purchases, so you’ll need to have it shipped to your local licensed dealer for pickup after purchase.
Look, if you’re in the market for a no-nonsense, powerful hunting rifle that doesn’t require you to piece together components, the Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP package deserves a hard look. It brings serious capability to the table without a serious custom-shop price tag. Check availability and see if this hard-hitting package fits your next adventure.
