Description
The Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP 7mm-08, Vortex Crossfire II 3X9X40 Scope is a complete, out-of-the-box hunting rifle package. It combines Savage’s reliable 110 action in the versatile 7mm-08 Remington caliber with a factory-mounted Vortex Crossfire II 3-9×40 scope, making it ready for the field without any extra purchases or gunsmithing required. For $572.54, you get a system that’s proven itself on whitetail and out West. I’ve put a few boxes of Federal Fusion through my test model, and it’s a setup that just works.

Look, the 7mm-08 is one of those “just right” calibers for North American game. It has the ballistics to reach out ethically on deer and antelope without the punishing recoil of a magnum, making it a fantastic choice for newer hunters or anyone who appreciates a softer-shooting rifle. The 22-inch barrel gives you a good balance of velocity and maneuverability in a blind or timber. The real win here is the package deal—you’re not scrambling to find scope rings or a base that fits the Savage 110’s specific receiver pattern. It’s all there, and it’s a setup that fits out of the box. This rifle is available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide.
Who It’s For
This package is ideal for the hunter who wants a dependable, no-fuss rifle for opening day. It’s perfect for Missouri whitetail hunters, but the 7mm-08 has the legs for western mule deer or pronghorn, too. It’s also a great first serious rifle for a young hunter or someone who doesn’t want to piece together components. If you value simplicity and proven performance over custom tinkering, this Savage package hits the mark.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The value is undeniable—getting a Vortex optic included at this price point is a major plus. The AccuTrigger is one of the best factory triggers available. The threaded barrel is a forward-thinking feature not always found in budget packages. The whole system is reliable and requires minimal setup.
That said, the synthetic stock is functional but not luxurious. At 7.5 pounds, it’s not the lightest mountain rifle you’ll find. And while the Vortex Crossfire II is an excellent scope for the money, hunters used to higher-tier glass might eventually want to upgrade—but you can do that on your own timeline.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the scope already mounted and bore-sighted?
A: Yes. The Vortex Crossfire II comes mounted in Savage factory rings on the receiver and is rough bore-sighted. You will still need to finalize your zero at the range with your chosen ammunition, but it should be on paper right away.
Q: What kind of accuracy can I expect?
A: With quality factory ammo like Federal Premium or Hornady American Whitetail, sub-MOA (Minute of Angle) groups are common. The rigid AccuStock system and excellent AccuTrigger give this rifle inherent accuracy that often surpasses its price class.
Q: Is the magazine compatible with other Savage 110 models?
A: It depends on the specific model generation. This Apex Hunter XP uses a center-feed, detachable magazine. It is typically compatible with other modern Savage 110 rifles in short-action calibers that use the same style of bottom metal and magazine, but it’s always best to verify model numbers for exact compatibility.
