Description
You’ve been saving for a dedicated long-range rifle, but the price tags on custom rigs are a gut punch. You need something that can reach out and touch steel at 800 yards without forcing you to eat ramen for a month. That’s the exact gap the Savage 110 Timberline fills—a factory-built, precision-oriented bolt gun that delivers serious capability for under a grand.
The Savage, 110 Timberline, Bolt, Rifle, 6.5 PRC, 24″ Threaded Barrel, Omni-Port Muzzle Brake, Olive Drab Green Cerakote Finish, Realtree Excape AccuFit Polymer Stock, AccuTrigger, Right Hand, 3Rd is a value-focused, long-range hunting and target rifle. It combines Savage’s proven 110 action with a 24-inch threaded barrel chambered in the flat-shooting 6.5 PRC cartridge, an adjustable AccuFit stock, and a factory-installed muzzle brake, all for a street price of $934.82.
Let’s talk about the heart of the system: that 6.5 PRC chambering. Here’s the thing—this cartridge is a sweet spot for the budget-minded long-range shooter. It delivers ballistics that rival the pricier 300 Win Mag for wind bucking and energy retention, but with significantly less recoil and cheaper factory ammo than magnum counterparts. Brands like Hornady and Federal offer excellent hunting and match loads, giving you practical options right off the shelf. The 24-inch barrel length is the ideal compromise, giving the 6.5 PRC powder enough tube to burn efficiently for top velocities without becoming a cumbersome hiking companion.
Savage didn’t just bolt a barrel on, though. The Omni-Port muzzle brake is factory-installed and timed, which means no gunsmithing required. It’s ready to screw on your suppressor or muzzle device immediately. This brake tames the already-manageable 6.5 PRC recoil down to near-.243 levels, making spotting your own hits through the scope a real possibility. The entire barreled action wears a tough Olive Drab Green Cerakote finish, a major upgrade over basic bluing that fights off moisture and scratches during hard use in the field.
Where the Timberline really separates itself from other budget rifles is the Realtree Excape AccuFit stock. This isn’t a one-size-fits-none piece of plastic. It features adjustable comb height and length of pull via spacers, letting you get a perfect, repeatable cheek weld for scope alignment. That’s a feature you typically find on rifles costing hundreds more. The stock’s lightweight polymer construction keeps the overall package manageable, with the rifle weighing in around 7.5 to 8 pounds before optics.

Pros: Outstanding out-of-the-box accuracy potential for the price. The adjustable AccuFit stock is a huge value-add. The 6.5 PRC is a modern, effective long-range cartridge. Factory-installed, threaded barrel with brake is ready for accessories. Cerakote finish provides durable corrosion resistance.
Cons: The 6.5 PRC ammo, while available, isn’t as ubiquitous or cheap as .308 Winchester. The polymer stock, while adjustable, may not satisfy shooters wanting a rigid chassis feel. The 3-round magazine capacity is standard but limited compared to some systems.
So who is this rifle for? It’s for the Missouri whitetail hunter who has a bean field stand shot at 400 yards. It’s for the shooter who wants to try PRS-style competitions without a $2,500 entry fee. It’s for anyone needing a rugged, reliable, and highly adaptable tool that fits out of the box and doesn’t demand immediate aftermarket parts to be effective. This rifle is available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I remove the Omni-Port muzzle brake to install a suppressor?
A: Absolutely. The brake is threaded onto the standard 5/8″-24 threads. You can simply unthread it and direct-thread a compatible suppressor or install a muzzle device like a SilencerCo ASR or Dead Air KeyMo mount for a quick-attach system.
Q: How does the 6.5 PRC compare to 6.5 Creedmoor for hunting?
A: The 6.5 PRC drives the same bullet weights about 200-300 feet per second faster. This translates to more retained energy at longer ranges, making it a better choice for larger game like elk at distance, though both are excellent for deer-sized game.
Q: Is the AccuTrigger really that good?
A: For a factory trigger, yes. It’s fully user-adjustable down to a crisp, clean pull weight that rivals many aftermarket triggers. The built-in safety blade prevents accidental discharge unless the trigger is deliberately pulled, making a light setting safe for field use.
