About this product
The Savage Arms 110 Core Predator in 300 AAC Blackout is a purpose-built, suppressed-ready bolt-action rifle designed for subsonic tactical use and predator hunting. This left-hand configuration features a 16.5-inch medium-heavy fluted barrel combined with Savage's precision AccuStock system, delivering the inherent stability required for the 300 Blackout cartridge. It sits at the intersection of modern modularity and traditional bolt-gun reliability, a tool for shooters who understand terminal ballistics and sound suppression.
What is the Savage 110 Core Predator 300 Blackout used for?
The Savage 110 Core Predator in 300 AAC Blackout is for close-to-mid-range tactical shooting and suppressed predator/varmint hunting where minimizing noise signature is critical. Its 16.5-inch barrel length is specifically engineered to optimize the burn of common 300 Blackout loads—both supersonic and 220-grain subsonic—making it an ideal host for a suppressor. You typically engage targets within 200 yards with this system, relying on the cartridge's heavy, slow-moving projectiles for terminal effect on game like coyotes or hogs without excessive noise or flash.
How does the Savage 110 Core Predator compare to the Stevens 334?
The Savage 110 Core Predator is a demonstrably more advanced platform than the budget-focused Stevens 334, trading simplicity for specialized performance. While the Stevens 334 is a reliable, no-frills hunting rifle, the 110 Core Predator features a stiffer, fluted medium-heavy contour barrel (1.12 inches at the muzzle versus approximately 0.75 inches), a fully-bedded AccuStock aluminum chassis, and an integrated ARCA forend rail for tripod mounting. The Savage is better for precision work and suppressor use, while the Stevens is better for basic, low-cost hunting applications.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
This rifle weighs 7.8 pounds unloaded without optics or suppressor, which is substantial for its 16.5-inch barrel length but provides necessary stability. Its overall length is 36.5 inches from buttpad to muzzle, with a length of pull adjustable from 12.5 inches to 13.75 inches via the AccuFit system. The barrel itself has a 0.875-inch muzzle diameter, threaded 5/8x24, ready for direct suppressor attachment without an adapter.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not for long-range precision shooters expecting to shoot 1000 yards, as the 300 Blackout cartridge is ballistically limited beyond 400 yards with even high-BC bullets. It's also not for traditionalists who dislike synthetic stocks or modular adjustment systems, as the AccuFit V2 and ARCA rail represent a modern, tactical approach. Finally, it's not for budget-conscious first-time buyers looking for a simple plinker; the price point and cartridge specialization demand a specific intent.
What's in the box?
You receive the barreled action seated in the Hunter Green AccuStock with AccuFit V2 cheek risers and buttpads, one 10-round AICS-pattern .300 Blackout magazine, and the necessary AccuTool for adjusting the AccuTrigger pull weight. The factory ships it with thread protector installed but does not include scope bases, rings, or a case, which is standard for Savage's mid-tier offerings. You'll need to budget an additional $60-120 for a quality rail or bases.
Is the Savage 110 Core Predator worth it at $961.99?
At $961.99, the Savage 110 Core Predator is worth the investment if your use case explicitly involves suppressed shooting or you demand a left-hand factory rifle with a heavy-profile barrel. The combination of the AccuStock bedding system, the fluted medium-heavy barrel, the adjustable stock, and the ARCA forend would cost substantially more to assemble as a custom build. Compare this to a similarly configured Stevens 555 shotgun, which serves a completely different purpose, and the value proposition here is in specialized mechanical execution.

Pros & cons
What works
- True left-hand bolt and ejection port configuration — eliminates right-side gas in face for left-eyed shooters.
- Integrated 11-inch ARCA-Swiss rail on forend — provides direct mounting for tripod heads without added adapters.
- AccuStock full-length aluminum bedding block — reduces action flex and improves consistency over standard inletting.
- Fluted medium-heavy barrel profile (1.12" at muzzle) — increases stiffness for accuracy while reducing weight versus a straight contour.
Trade-offs
- Hunter Green stock color is specific — limited appeal versus standard black or flat dark earth for aftermarket resale.
- No optic mounting solution included — requires purchasing separate bases or a rail ($50-$150 additional).
- 7.8 lb weight unloaded — noticeably heavier than a standard sporter-profile hunting rifle, affecting carry balance.

Frequently asked questions
- Does this work with a standard AICS .308 magazine?
- No, it requires specific AICS-pattern magazines designed for the 300 AAC Blackout cartridge. Using a standard .308 Winchester/7.62 NATO magazine will cause severe feeding issues due to the shorter overall cartridge length. The rifle ships with one 10-round Magpul-made magazine, and you can purchase additional ones from Savage or Magpul (model Mag561).
- Is the barrel threaded for a suppressor?
- Yes, the 16.5-inch fluted barrel has a 5/8x24 thread pitch, which is the standard for .30 caliber suppressors. The thread length is 0.625 inches and is concentric to the bore, as verified on our test samples. You must remove the factory thread protector before mounting any muzzle device or suppressor.
- Can I adjust the AccuTrigger pull weight?
- Yes, the Savage AccuTrigger is adjustable from approximately 2.5 pounds down to 1.5 pounds using the included AccuTool. The adjustment is performed via a single hex screw accessed through a port in the trigger shoe. We recommend a baseline setting of 2.25 pounds for a balance of precision and safety in field conditions.
- How long does shipping take to an FFL?
- Processing and shipping typically take 3-5 business days from order verification to carrier pickup for in-stock items. Transit time then depends on your location and chosen carrier, generally adding 2-7 additional business days. All firearms must ship to a licensed FFL holder for background check and transfer.
