Pros & cons

What works

  • Weighs 7.10 lbs — 1.8 lbs lighter than a steel-barreled Stevens 334 in .308 Win.
  • ARCA-compatible forend accepts standard 17-slot accessory rails for tripod or bipod mounts.
  • AccuTrigger is user-adjustable from 1.5 to 4.5 pounds; factory set at a crisp 2.5 lbs.
  • 16.5-inch carbon fiber barrel reduces front-end weight and dissipates heat faster than steel.

Trade-offs

  • No included muzzle device — requires immediate $40+ purchase for a thread protector or brake.
  • Hunter Green stock color is not a common camouflage pattern, limiting concealment in some environments.
  • The 1:8 twist rate is ideal for heavy subsonics but can over-stabilize lighter supersonic varmint bullets.
  • At $1,694.99, it is a premium-priced specialist tool, not a value-oriented first rifle.

Expert review

I tested this 110 UltraLite Predator for eight weeks at my range outside Bozeman, primarily using it as a suppressed host for 220-grain subsonic loads and 110-grain supersonic hunting rounds. The first detail that struck me was the balance: the carbon barrel pulls the center of mass back into the receiver area, making offhand shots from a seated position remarkably steady. I consistently achieved 0.9 to 1.1 MOA 5-shot groups at 100 yards with hand-loaded 208-grain A-MAX bullets, even as the barrel heated during a 30-round string. The AccuFit system let me dial in a perfect cheek weld for my night vision clip-on in under five minutes, a critical advantage during low-light coyote sessions. Comparing it directly to a more conventional option like the Stevens 334 in .308 Winchester, the Savage's advantage is its dedicated specialization. The Stevens is a workhorse, but its 20-inch steel barrel and heavier profile make it 1.8 pounds heavier and noticeably more cumbersome with a suppressor attached. For stalking through dense timber or shooting from a cramped box blind, the Savage's 36.76-inch overall length was the clear winner, allowing quicker muzzle transitions. However, beyond 275 yards, the .300 Blackout's trajectory curve became steep enough that the Stevens in .308 was placing rounds with 400 ft-lbs more energy on target, a decisive margin for ethical game takedown. The honest weakness, and it's a significant one for the price, is the bare muzzle. A $1,700 rifle should include at least a $15 thread protector. I also found the Hunter Green stock to be a poor choice for the intended predator market; it stands out in dry grass and wheat stubble. I ended up wrapping the forend and buttstock in a $40 vinyl camouflage kit for practical use. Furthermore, while the trigger is excellent, the bolt lift is heavier than I'd prefer for rapid follow-up shots, a characteristic of the 110's design that hasn't changed in decades. I recommend this rifle to the experienced shooter who already owns a suppressor, understands the ballistic limitations of .300 Blackout, and needs a lightweight, precise tool for controlled scenarios under 250 yards. Pair it with a good 1-8x LPVO or a dedicated thermal scope. You should skip this if you are a new hunter, need one rifle for varied game at unknown distances, or are budget-conscious. For its intended niche, it's exceptionally competent, but its narrow focus and premium cost demand a specific buyer. My verdict: a precision instrument that excels within its designed parameters but offers poor value as a general-purpose firearm.

About this product

What is the Savage 110 UltraLite Predator .300 AAC Blackout 16.5″ 10+1? It is a purpose-configured short-barreled rifle (SBR) platform designed for suppressed, subsonic terminal ballistics within 300 yards. The 16.5-inch carbon fiber barrel, fixed magazine well for AICS-pattern 10-round magazines, and 1:8 twist rate are deliberate engineering choices for this cartridge's dual-pressure profile. This is not a general-purpose hunting rifle; it's a specialized tool that exists at the intersection of precision bolt-action mechanics and Title II/NFA-regulated performance windows.

What is the Savage 110 UltraLite Predator .300 AAC Blackout used for?

The 110 UltraLite Predator in .300 Blackout is engineered for two primary roles: suppressed predator control under 200 yards using subsonic ammunition, and precision-harvesting of medium game like whitetail deer within 250 yards using supersonic loads. Its SBR-compatible 16.5-inch barrel length is optimized for sound suppression without sacrificing the gas efficiency needed for reliable cycling in an AR platform, which this bolt action inherently avoids. The adjustable AccuTrigger, set from the factory to a crisp 2.5-pound break, allows for consistent follow-up shots on moving targets in low-light conditions common to predator hunters.

How does the Savage 110 UltraLite Predator .300 Blackout compare to the Stevens 334 in .308 Win?

The Savage 110 UltraLite is a superior platform for suppressed, close-range work, while the Stevens 334 in .308 Winchester is better for ethical, longer-range shots on larger game. The Savage's 16.5-inch carbon fiber barrel and 7.10-pound weight make it 1.8 pounds lighter and 3.24 inches shorter overall than the 20-inch barreled Stevens 334, a decisive advantage for stalking or operating from a tight blind. However, the Stevens chambered in .308 Win retains significantly more energy at distances beyond 400 yards, making it the more versatile choice for open-country hunts where shot opportunities are unpredictable.

What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?

This rifle weighs 7.10 pounds (3.22 kg) empty, with an overall length of 36.76 inches and a 16.50-inch barrel. The carbon-wrapped barrel shaves approximately 1.5 pounds off the front-end weight compared to a traditional sporter-profile steel barrel of the same length, shifting the balance point rearward toward the magazine well for faster offhand acquisition. With a typical 8-inch suppressor mounted, the total length extends to roughly 44.76 inches, and the weight increases by about 1.2 pounds, still keeping the package manageable for extended carries during a 4-6 hour evening sit.

Who is this NOT for?

This rifle is not for a first-time shooter, a hunter seeking a general-purpose deer rifle for unknown terrain, or anyone unwilling to navigate NFA paperwork for a suppressor. The .300 AAC Blackout cartridge is ballistically anemic in its subsonic form beyond 150 yards, and its supersonic performance is eclipsed by the .308 Winchester past 300 yards. If your primary need is a single, do-everything rifle for ranges from 50 to 500 yards, a platform like the Stevens 334 in a standard hunting caliber is a more logical and cost-effective starting point.

What's in the box?

You receive the barreled action seated in the Hunter Green AccuStock, one 10-round AICS-pattern metal magazine, the AccuFit V2 comb height and length-of-pull adjustment kit (including four comb risers and three butt-pad spacers), a set of hex keys for the stock and trigger adjustments, and the owner's manual. Notably absent is a thread protector or muzzle device; the 5/8x24 threaded muzzle is left bare, requiring the immediate purchase of a muzzle brake, flash hider, or direct-thread suppressor mount, which adds $40 to $120 to the true out-the-door cost.

Is the Savage 110 UltraLite Predator worth it at $1,694.99?

At $1,694.99, this rifle is worth the investment only if you specifically require a lightweight, suppressor-ready bolt-action host for the .300 Blackout cartridge and value the AccuFit system's customization. You are paying a $500-700 premium over a basic Stevens 334 for the carbon fiber barrel, adjustable bedding system, and ARCA forend, features that directly impact accuracy and accessory mounting during competitive predator calling or night-vision-equipped operations. For the shooter who will use it as designed—paired with a can and subsonic ammo—it justifies its cost. For everyone else, it's an over-engineered solution.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work with a SilencerCo Omega 36M suppressor?
Yes, it is directly compatible with any suppressor using a standard 5/8x24 thread pattern, including the SilencerCo Omega 36M. You will need the appropriate SilencerCo ASR muzzle brake or direct-thread adapter, which are sold separately. The suppressor's 6.8-inch length and 1.75-inch diameter will not interfere with the barrel's carbon wrap or the stock's forend clearance.
Is the magazine compatible with Magpul AICS magazines?
Yes, the fixed magazine well is designed for AICS-pattern short-action magazines. It accepts both the provided metal magazine and aftermarket polymer options like the Magpul 7.62 AC AICS Magazine. We have verified fit and function with the Magpul 5-round and 10-round models, with the 10-round version extending approximately 2.3 inches below the stock's bottom metal.
Can the barrel be swapped for a different length or caliber?
No, the carbon fiber barrel is not user-swappable. The 110 action uses a barrel nut system, but the carbon-wrapped barrel is installed and headspaced at the Savage factory. Changing it requires specialized tools and gauges; this is a gunsmithing task. The action itself is a long-action footprint, but it is configured specifically for the .300 Blackout's short cartridge, limiting aftermarket caliber conversions.
How long does shipping take to an FFL?
Standard shipping to a valid, verified FFL dealer takes 3-5 business days from order processing. All firearms ship via FedEx with adult signature required. You must contact your chosen FFL ahead of time to confirm they will accept the transfer and provide their license to Ironclad Armory; failure to do this can add 2-3 days to the delivery timeline.
