Description
Picture this: you’re glassing a power line cut at dawn, a coyote silhouette appears at 200 yards. You need a rifle that’s ready—right now. No fussing with separate scope purchases, no guessing about mounts. You need a complete, reliable system that hits where you aim, straight from the box. That’s the mission of the Savage Model 10 Trophy Hunter XP Package .223 Remington 22″ Blued Barrel Wood Stock Includes Nikon 3-9x40mm Riflescope Mounted 4rd. It’s a turn-key hunting and varminting solution built around Savage’s legendary Model 10 action, delivering sub-MOA accuracy with a factory-mounted optic for one straightforward price.
Here’s the thing—the core of this package is Savage’s proven Model 10 action, known for its smooth bolt operation and rugged reliability. The heart of its accuracy is the user-adjustable AccuTrigger, which allows you to set the pull weight to your preference for a crisp, clean break without creep. This single feature is a massive advantage for precision shooting, whether you’re taking a careful shot at a woodchuck or ringing steel. The 22-inch blued barrel provides a solid balance of velocity and maneuverability, and it’s chambered in the flat-shooting, low-recoil .223 Remington—a caliber perfect for varmints and target practice, with ammo that’s widely available and relatively affordable. The package price of $598.77 represents significant value when you consider the components separately.
Key Features
The wood stock offers a classic, solid feel and helps dampen vibration. It’s a no-nonsense platform that gets the job done without unnecessary bulk. The included Nikon 3-9x40mm BDC reticle scope is a legitimate piece of glass, not an afterthought. It’s mounted and bore-sighted at the factory, meaning it fits out of the box and you can typically head to the range for final zeroing without a gunsmith. The 3-9x magnification is the versatile sweet spot for most hunting scenarios in Missouri, from thick timber to open fields. The 40mm objective lens gathers ample light for dawn and dusk shots.
This is a rifle built for real-world use. The detachable box magazine holds 4 rounds, allowing for quick reloads and safe unloading. The entire system is designed for the hunter who wants to spend time shooting, not assembling. It’s compatible with a wide range of .223 Remington ammunition, from economical 55-grain FMJ for practice to specialized varmint loads like Hornady V-Max or Sierra BlitzKing for decisive terminal performance. The overall length of 42.5 inches makes it easy to handle in a blind or truck cab.

Pros & Cons
Pros: Exceptional out-of-the-box value with a quality scope included. The AccuTrigger is a genuine performance enhancer. The package is truly ready to hunt—just add ammo. The .223 Rem chambering offers low recoil and affordable practice. Classic wood stock aesthetics with modern precision engineering.
Cons: The .223 Remington is not a legal big game caliber in many states (check local regulations). The 4-round magazine capacity is sufficient for hunting but modest for extended range sessions. The blued barrel requires more maintenance to prevent rust than a stainless finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the scope permanently attached?
A: No, the Nikon scope is mounted on a one-piece base using standard rings. It is installed and bore-sighted at the factory, but it can be removed or replaced if desired, allowing you to use other optics or mounts.
Q: Can this rifle shoot 5.56 NATO ammunition?
A: The barrel is specifically chambered for .223 Remington. While .223 Remington can be safely fired in a 5.56 chamber, the reverse is not always recommended due to higher 5.56 pressure. For safety and optimal accuracy, we recommend using only .223 Remington ammunition in this rifle.
Q: How accurate is it?
A: Savage guarantees sub-MOA (Minute of Angle) accuracy with specific factory ammunition, meaning it can group shots within 1 inch at 100 yards. With its free-floated barrel and AccuTrigger, many users achieve even better results with hand-loaded or match-grade ammo.
