Description
The Savage 110 Long Range Hunter in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 26-inch barrel is a production rifle that delivers factory accuracy without the custom-gun price tag. You get an adjustable AccuTrigger, a user-configurable stock via the AccuFit system, and an integrated muzzle brake—all in a package that weighs under 9 pounds. This is a hunting rifle built for shooters who demand first-round hits at distance, not just close-range brush guns.

Key Features
- AccuTrigger — Adjustable from 2.5 to 6 pounds with zero creep. Why it matters: you can dial in a crisp break that matches your trigger finger, eliminating pull-weight surprises on cold mornings.
- AccuFit System — Interchangeable comb risers and length-of-pull spacers. Why it matters: get a perfect cheek weld and stock fit without sending the stock to a smith. No permanent modifications needed.
- Button-Rifled Barrel, 26 inches — Carbon steel, matte black, button rifling for consistent bore dimensions. Why it matters: the 26-inch length maximizes velocity in 6.5 Creedmoor, and button rifling keeps groups tight round after round.
- Adjustable Muzzle Brake — Factory-installed, removable, and ported. Why it matters: reduces felt recoil by roughly 30%, letting you spot your own hits through the scope during follow-up shots.
- Drilled and Tapped Receiver — Standard Savage 110 footprint. Why it matters: you can mount any 2-piece or one-piece rail without gunsmithing. No proprietary nonsense.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the shooter who hunts open country—pronghorn in Wyoming, mule deer in Montana, or coyotes across the plains—and wants a rig that pulls double duty on the range. If you’re the kind of person who measures groups in MOA and adjusts your DOPE card after every session, the 110 Long Range Hunter fits. It’s not a lightweight mountain rifle; it’s a precision tool for shooters who prioritize hits over pack weight.
Pros and Cons
- Pro: The AccuTrigger is genuinely adjustable and breaks clean. Per Savage Arms specs, it’s user-adjustable without tools.
- Pro: The stock’s adjustable comb and LOP let you dial in fit for different shooting positions or bulky clothing.
- Pro: The 26-inch barrel gets the most out of 6.5 Creedmoor ballistics—factory 140-grain loads run around 2,700 fps.
- Con: The factory synthetic stock has a hollow feel compared to a chassis or laminate. It’s functional but not rigid. For serious bench work, you’ll want an aftermarket stock or chassis (MDT, KRG).
Comparison
| Feature | Savage 110 Long Range Hunter | Tikka T3x CTR | Ruger Precision Rifle |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barrel Length | 26 in | 24 in | 24 in |
| Trigger | AccuTrigger (2.5–6 lb) | Single-stage (2–4 lb) | Two-stage (adjustable) |
| Stock/Chassis | Synthetic, adjustable comb/LOP | Synthetic, adjustable comb | Aluminum chassis, folding stock |
| Muzzle Brake | Yes, adjustable | No (threaded cap) | Yes, adjustable |
| Weight | 8.9 lb | 8.4 lb | 11.0 lb |
| MSRP | $963 | $1,099 | $1,399 |
The Savage undercuts both competitors on price while offering a longer barrel and an included brake. The Tikka has a better factory trigger out of the box, but the AccuTrigger is more adjustable. The Ruger gives you a chassis for stability but adds over 2 pounds—bad if you’re hiking miles.
FAQ
Does the Savage 110 Long Range Hunter come with scope bases?
No. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Savage 110 scope bases. You’ll need to buy bases or a rail separately. I recommend a 20 MOA rail for long-range work.
What is the twist rate on the 6.5 Creedmoor barrel?
Per Savage Arms specs, the 26-inch barrel has a 1:8 twist rate. That stabilizes 120- to 147-grain bullets cleanly. I’ve had good results with 140-grain ELD-Ms.
Can I remove the muzzle brake?
Yes. The brake is threaded onto the barrel and secured with a jam nut. You can remove it and install a thread protector (5/8-24 threads).
Is the stock compatible with aftermarket chassis?
Yes. The Savage 110 action uses a standard footprint that fits most aftermarket chassis from MDT, KRG, and XLR. You can drop the barreled action into a chassis later if you want more rigidity.
