Thanks for the watch!

Glad it was helpful! 110 is an excellent choice!

I have a 110 Tactical in 6.5 CM. Mine is still in the factory stock with a Sightron SIII 10x50x60 on it & a Hypertap muzzle brake. Yes, mine is quite heavy also but if I do my job it is very accurate. I also have an older Savage Model 12 VLP 26" fluted bull bbl in .223 with a 1:7 twist & a target crown. I have a 4x24x50 Vortex Strike Eagle on it. It is a tack driver!

Can you buy the 1 piece systems with 20 or 40 moa mounts? I think nightforce makes them but I bet they are expensive lol, anything nightforce your gonna spend some $ , which one do you have ? Yeah those mdt chassis are awesome, I want the mdt ess chassis, but I also think to myself why not buy a Ruger precision rifle and just add some small things to it , might be a lot cheaper for same quality, but I think mdt chassis are better than Ruger precision chassis ,especially butt stock

Absolutely!

Thank you! New videos are on the way.

Doesn’t work with the high cheek rest.

​@@yellowhammeroutdoors5516 yes it does. I use the high piece and can remove the bolt easily by turning it upside down.

You rotate the bolt 180deg and it should slide right out.

It looks like his scope is in the way or rotating 180° but that does sound like a really good tip

Looka like he has his scope set to far back to do that lol little guy young guy knows it all

It makes for a great shooting, compact gun at an amazing price point. Thanks for watching!

Thank you, I’d love to do a video on it! Thanks for watching. I have a follow up video to this one with a free giveaway, check it out for the chance to win one of my hats.

The case was shortened to accommodate the longer 375 bullets within typical 308 magazines.

Tikka is an excellent rifle but as you said, they are going up in price. I think you’ll be very happy with a Savage 110 in .308. I saw a scout model the other day in .308 that is very nice. Shorter barrel to make it a little more handy and includes adjustable iron sights in addition to a rail for scope mount. I like the flexibility of this model. It caters strongly to the hunting crowd, though.

As do I, both great, affordable American built rifles. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching!

Saw one on eBay a few days ago. As far as I can figure, people are taking them off the factory rifles and selling just the stock.

Thanks for watching. Axis and 110 barrels are manufactured to the same specs and are actually interchangeable as Axis rifles use the same thread pitch as a small shank 110.

@@yellowhammeroutdoors5516I enjoyed your video. I was just countering your comment that the Axis was only a 1-1.5 moa gun. Both mine are sub moa with the right ammo. As with any rifle, bullet selection is very important with respect to. accuracy.

My issue with the Axis really comes down to the receiver. I don’t doubt that with the right ammo and AccuTrigger it’s a sub-MOA rifle. As a hand loader and long range shooter, however, I often push my rifles to the limit with bullets that exceed SAAMI specs and the Axis does not give me confidence in this regard the way other receivers do. Thanks for watching and I hope to hear from you in future videos.

Thank you! It’s from X-Caliber. It’s what they call the Savage Big Varmint contour… tapers down to .810” at the muzzle. I got it with spiral fluting to help with some of the weight. It’s an amazingly accurate barrel.

The Savage.

Market support is pretty good on the 110. Magpul, Bell and Carlson, and others make stocks. Rifle basix, Timney, and others make triggers. And just about any barrel manufacturer makes barrels for the Savage thread pattern.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I’ve done a couple of trigger jobs on Axis rifles that mainly just required trimming a few coils out of the springs. I was able to safely get the rifles down to the 3lb range. I think the Axis II is an upgrade over the Axis bc of the AccuTrigger. My biggest complaint is the standard action length across all calibers. I would prefer a short action for short action cartridges and a mini action for .223 sized cartridges. I understand it from a manufacturing perspective but don’t like it as a consumer.

why not just buy the 6.5 from savage with the threaded fluted barrel model 10 two diff lengths

@@stanleymarucha8194 Hindsight is 20/20. I would not and availability of a rifle is also questionable. Good point on what to buy 1st and not have to deal with extra expenses later.

​@@garrytalley8009 if dont mind could you tell me what site or company you guys shopping from to find these aftermarket stocks an parts for the Savages?

Here you go: www.anarchyoutdoors.com/dragon-scale-bolt-knobs/

I’ve never liked the Savage Axis. The Axis to begin with had a terrible trigger. They’ve fixed this with the Axis II that now comes with an AccuTrigger. The barrels are the same as Savage 110 series rifles, they’re even interchangeable. But I don’t like the design of the receiver and I hate the magazine design and their retention system. For just a little more money you could be in a Ruger American or Savage 11 rifle that is much better designed and offers much more for down the road upgrades.

If you’re looking at the model with the Magpul Hunter stock, I’ll say that I really love that stock. Earlier models came with the Savage Accufit stock, which is also great but not as good as Magpul. These models come with a full length, sporter barrel and polished bolt. I think they’re well worth the money, especially the 6.5. It’s very accurate. Just watch bullet selection based on what you’re hunting.

Yes, the Magpul Hunter Savage 110 is the model I’m looking at. Thank you!!

Yes sir! Thanks for watching!

Yeah, it’s frustrating especially when it comes to magazines and bottom metal.

I agree with you about the recoil lugs, I have rebarreled several Remington 700 and Savage rifles and getting the recoil lug lined up perfectly is always a little tricky. The Ruger American doesn’t have this problem and the barrel nut system makes it a breeze to swap out barrels. As I’ve stated, biggest downside to the Ruger American is the 2-position safety.

@@yellowhammeroutdoors5516 I recently bought a Seiko s20 that has a three lug bolt in the scope bases machined into the top of the receiver. Last fall I shot at a monstrous buck at around 300 yards which is normally not a problem. But the last time I took the barrel off of the Remington 700 that I was using, I neglected to glue the scope base and the screws down when I reinstalled it. Everything was fine until I needed to shoot at a gigantic buck. Moral of the story scope base screws will eventually come loose no matter how tight you tighten them. I've had this happen more than once. So that's why the Seiko s20 looked attractive because the base will never come loose. It doesn't have any MOA angle built into it but for me that's not a problem. Plus there is no recoil lug sandwiched between the barrel and the receiver. I took the barrel off and the threads were galded all to s***. The sako s20 thread is 1 in diameter 16 threads per inch basically the same as a Ruger, model 70 win and tikka and ar 10 under the barrel extention. The bolt operation on the Saiko s20 and the tikka are as smooth as it gets for a factory bolt action. And i like the safety which locks down the bolt and can be cycled with the safety on. The trigger on the Sako s20 is Good from the factory and tikka pretty much the same way, no real need for aftermarket triggers. Anyway there are some advantages and disadvantages to all of them. If Ruger would redesign their stock with a way to adjust the cheek and length of pull and more vertical grip and utilize ACIS pattern magaizines or ar 15 or ar 10 mags. They would have a bona fide winner.

Sako and Tikka rifles are both very high quality. And I agree if Ruger just put a little more design quality into the stock and trigger safety, they’d have a bona fide winner.

@@yellowhammeroutdoors5516 You sir are a legit person in a sea of artificial lures. I rarely get on internet and never comment… but was needing to get some quick info on quality of the 110 package in 7mm rem mag. I almost turned off your video thinking you were too young, reviewing modified versions… so not speaking of basic products most are looking for in a “vs” search And I was wrong. You can delete this as it won’t mean much to anyone else but it was refreshing to me to see someone online that knows what they speak of and more importantly speaks the truth. Not the standard have to love one side and hate the other without any rationale or reasoning. Don’t lose that character it’s not so common anymore. Thanks for your honest input and sharing with the rest of us.

I appreciate the comments! Please subscribe and stay tuned for future videos.

Both are very similar. They both feature a transferable lifetime warranty, similar price point, similar size/weight/magnification, and both have a zero stop. Glass on the Arken EP5 is Japanese glass. I’m not sure about the Discovery but the fact that it’s not mentioned leads me to believe it’s Chinese glass. The Japanese glass is far superior.

You know, I’m not a big fan of the Axis but it is a very popular rifle. I think I will do a non-biased video comparing the Axis and all of its features.

I’ll have to look into the rust issue on the Axis, haven’t had any of those issues on any 110s. As far as the Ruger, you’re right at this stage it’s no longer budget but it’s a good platform to start with that you can slowly upgrade down the road. Out of the box, even with the crappy factory stock, it still shoots 1 MOA or better.

Ruger American is amazing value for the money. Thanks for watching!

I’ve hit 12” plates at 1300 yards. That’s the furthest I’ve tried yet. Haven’t had much time to get a lot range time behind it yet. Still less than 100 rounds through the tube.

I was clearly referring to the action being the same across all models of the Savage 110 series, which includes the models you mentioned. All of the changes are to the configuration, not the action. The Axis is a completely different action.

Did a separate video including a Howa 1500. Check it out.

When the current $100 bill became worth less than the old $5 bill.

👍🏼

There are a lot of people that would beg to differ with you. I am a regular at the CMP and shoot matches. My Ruger American outperforms rifles that are much more expensive. Even with what I have in the modifications, it’s a much cheaper price point than many other rifles. As I stated, the manufacturing process and updates in technology has really leveled the playing field as far as accuracy goes, what you end up paying for are features and name recognition.

i own a savage 110 expex hunter, it shoots 1moa even in a caliber like 350 legend that has the trajectory of a brick. sounds to me like you own neither the Ruger American or savage 110. Both are fantastic

It is not your money but his money if you want him to buy something better, give him the bucks to do just that.

Ruger used to have good shooting rifles not anymore because they just roll em out and collect the bread and don't care about the customer anymore just like every other company in the us we put out junk anymore just ask the buyer. Beagleman

@@lewisrice3741 Well, I shoot 1/2 moa with 3 different Ruger American Predator's. So how much do I need to spend to get better than that? If that's junk, I'll keep shooting junk.
