Savage 110 Ultralite LH .28 Nosler 24″ Carbon Fiber

Description

The Savage 110 Ultralite LH .28 Nosler 24″ Carbon Fiber is a sub-6-pound long-action platform built for shooters who demand mountain mobility without trading precision. Savage partnered with PROOF Research to wrap a stainless barrel in carbon fiber, skeletonize the receiver with a Melonite finish, and keep the proven 110 action geometry. Left-hand configuration, adjustable AccuTrigger, and AccuFit stock mean you dial in fit and break exactly—then carry it all day.

Key Features

• PROOF Research carbon-fiber barrel: WHY IT MATTERS — Reduces weight by roughly 30% vs. a steel barrel of the same contour, so you can hump this rifle up a 10,000-foot ridgeline without feeling every pound.
• Melonite-finished skeletonized receiver: WHY IT MATTERS — Cuts mass from the action while the Melonite treatment gives a hard, corrosion-resistant surface that holds up to rain, sweat, and pack abrasion.
• AccuFit system: WHY IT MATTERS — Adjustable length-of-pull and comb height let you dial in a perfect cheek weld and reach, whether you’re wearing a thin base layer or a heavy puffy coat.
• User-adjustable AccuTrigger: WHY IT MATTERS — You can pull the trigger weight down to a crisp 2.5 lbs for precision shots without a gunsmith, then lock it so it won’t drift.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the left-handed competition shooter or precision hunter who values low weight and repeatable accuracy in a long-action magnum. If you’re shooting PRS-style mountain matches, spot-and-stalk elk in the Rockies, or running a .28 Nosler for its flat trajectory and retained energy at 600+ yards, the Ultralite LH gives you a platform that carries like a .243 but hits like a .300 Win Mag. It’s also for the gear geek who wants a production rifle that borrows tech from PROOF’s custom shop—without the custom wait time.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: Sub-6-pound weight with a 24″ carbon barrel means you can move fast and shoot off-hand without fatigue.
• Pro: AccuTrigger is adjustable down to ~2.5 lbs with zero take-up—great for precision work.
• Pro: Left-hand configuration is rare in lightweight magnum rifles; Savage fills that gap.
• Con: Carbon-fiber barrels can heat up faster during strings of fire, so it’s not ideal for high-volume range sessions or rapid-fire stages. Let it cool between groups.
• Con: The skeletonized receiver reduces weight but can feel a bit flexy under heavy bipod loads—consider a carbon-fiber chassis if you run a bipod hard.

FAQ

What is the twist rate on the Savage 110 Ultralite LH .28 Nosler?

Per Savage specs, the barrel has a 1:8″ RH twist, which stabilizes .28 Nosler bullets from 150 to 195 grains. That covers everything from light Berger VLDs to heavy LRX monolithic solids.

Is the muzzle threaded from the factory?

Yes, the barrel comes threaded 5/8×24, so you can attach a suppressor, brake, or thread protector right out of the box. The thread cap is included.

Can I change the stock or chassis on this rifle?

Yes, the 110 Ultralite uses a standard 110 action footprint, so you can drop it into aftermarket stocks or chassis from brands like MDT, KRG, or XLR. Just note the skeletonized receiver may require a specific inlet or bedding for optimal fit.

How does the AccuFit stock adjust?

AccuFit uses interchangeable comb risers and length-of-pull spacers. You can swap them without tools to change comb height in 0.25″ increments and LOP in 0.5″ increments. It takes about two minutes per adjustment.

What is the maximum effective range for .28 Nosler in this rifle?

With a 175-grain Berger Elite Hunter at 3,150 fps, you’re supersonic past 1,500 yards. In practical hunting terms, it’s a 600–800 yard elk gun with 1,800+ ft-lbs retained energy at 600 yards.
