Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP LH 7mm PRC 22″ w/ Vortex 3-9×40
About this product
What is the Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP LH 7mm PRC 22″ w/ Vortex 3-9×40? It's a left-hand bolt-action hunting rifle package with factory-mounted optics designed for precision shooting in field conditions. This configuration combines Savage's proven action with Vortex glass to deliver out-of-box readiness for serious hunters who prefer southpaw operation.
What is the Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP used for?
This rifle is built for precision hunting of medium to large game at extended ranges. The 7mm PRC cartridge delivers 3,000+ fps muzzle velocity with 175-grain bullets, making it effective on elk and moose out to 600 yards. The left-hand bolt configuration provides natural manipulation for southpaw shooters during rapid follow-up shots.
How does the Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Savage 110 outperforms the Stevens 334 in .308 Win in both ballistic performance and trigger quality. While the Stevens 334 offers a 20-inch barrel and 4+1 capacity at 6.5 lbs, the Savage 110 provides superior long-range ballistics through its 22-inch 1:8 twist barrel and adjustable AccuTrigger system that breaks cleanly at 2.5-6 lbs versus the Stevens' fixed 4-lb pull.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 7.82 lbs unloaded and measures 43 inches in overall length. The 22-inch sporter contour barrel contributes to a balanced carry weight that's 1.32 lbs heavier than the synthetic-stocked Stevens 334, but the additional mass helps manage 7mm PRC recoil during extended shooting sessions.
Who is this NOT for?
Right-handed shooters should avoid this configuration—the left-hand bolt requires complete retraining of muscle memory. Budget-conscious hunters might prefer the Stevens 334 in .243 Win at nearly half the price, though you sacrifice long-range capability and trigger refinement.
What's in the box?
You receive one left-hand Savage 110 rifle, one Vortex Crossfire II 3-9x40mm scope mounted on an EGW 0 MOA rail, and one 2-round detachable magazine. The package excludes additional magazines or cleaning equipment—plan $45-60 for a spare magazine and proper bore guide.
Is the Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP worth it at $657.99?
At $657.99, this package delivers exceptional value for left-hand hunters needing long-range capability. The Vortex scope alone retails for $199 when purchased separately, making the rifle essentially $458—a fair price for a button-rifled barrel action with AccuTrigger that consistently shoots sub-MOA with factory ammunition.

Pros & cons
What works
- Left-hand bolt configuration — eliminates right-hand adaptation for southpaw shooters
- AccuTrigger adjustable from 2.5 to 6 pounds — 1.5 pounds lighter minimum than Stevens 334 trigger
- Vortex Crossfire II scope included — $199 value mounted and bore-sighted
- 7.82 lb total weight — balances well for off-hand shooting compared to heavier precision rifles
Trade-offs
- 2+1 capacity — requires frequent reloading compared to 4+1 systems like the Stevens 334
- No thread protector included — leaves muzzle threads exposed during transport
- Synthetic stock lacks cheek riser — adds $75-120 for aftermarket solutions for proper cheek weld

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with aftermarket stocks?
- Yes, it accepts most Savage 110 short-action stocks, though the left-hand bolt may require specific inletting. The action screw spacing is 4.275 inches center-to-center, matching standard 110 pattern stocks from Boyd's and Bell & Carlson.
- Does it work with suppressor attachments?
- The 22-inch barrel features 5/8x24 threads under the cap, compatible with most .30 cal suppressors. Thread engagement depth is 0.6 inches—verify your suppressor's mount system requires no more than 0.55 inches clearance behind the thread start.
- How long does shipping take to FFL?
- FFL shipments typically process within 2 business days and transit via UPS Ground, taking 3-5 additional days depending on your location. All shipments require valid FFL information before processing—have your dealer's license ready before ordering.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit?
- Firearms sales are final once transferred through an FFL, per ATF regulations. We recommend verifying fit at your local dealer before purchase—the length of pull adjusts from 13.5 to 14.5 inches to accommodate most adult shooters.
