Savage 110 Long Range Hunter 300 PRC 26″ Gray
Pros & cons
What works
- 1:8.5 twist rate stabilizes bullets up to 250 grains—critical for .300 PRC’s long-range potential
- AccuTrigger adjustable down to 2.5 pounds with zero creep—1.2 pounds lighter than most factory triggers
- Full-length aluminum bedding block in stock reduces action shift to under 0.002 inches during firing
Trade-offs
- Synthetic stock flexes under barricade pressure—adds 0.3-0.5 MIL of inconsistency in PRS scenarios
- No included optic rail—requires aftermarket base adding $90-$150 and 3.2 ounces
- Magazine release is stiff—requires 8 pounds of pressure to drop the magazine versus 3-4 on custom actions

About this product
The Savage 110 Long Range Hunter in .300 PRC is a precision bolt-action rifle engineered for extreme-distance hunting and target work, featuring Savage’s AccuFit system and a 26-inch carbon steel barrel. It balances custom ergonomics with the ballistic performance needed for engagements beyond 800 yards, all while remaining NFA-compliant out of the box. This rifle serves hunters and long-range competitors who demand repeatable accuracy without custom gunsmithing.
What is the Savage 110 Long Range Hunter 300 PRC used for?
This rifle is built for ethical takedowns at 600+ yards on large game like elk and moose, or for competing in PRS-style matches. The .300 PRC cartridge delivers 3,600+ joules of muzzle energy with factory ammo, capable of cleanly taking North American game at distances where 6.5 Creedmoor begins to falter. Its threaded muzzle and adjustable brake make it suppressor-ready without aftermarket work, critical for hunters operating in states with restrictive decibel limits.
How does the Savage 110 Long Range Hunter compare to the Stevens 334?
The Savage 110 outperforms the Stevens 334 in .308 Win in both ballistic range and customization, trading raw affordability for precision features. Where the Stevens 334 offers a budget-friendly 20-inch barrel fixed at 1:10 twist for mid-range work, the Savage 110’s 26-inch 1:8.5-twist barrel stabilizes heavy .30-cal projectiles beyond 1,200 yards. The AccuTrigger system provides a crisp 2.5-pound break compared to the Stevens’ fixed 5-pound pull, giving experienced shooters far better control.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 8.85 pounds unloaded and measures 49.5 inches overall with the 26-inch barrel. That weight puts it 1.2 pounds heavier than a typical hunting rifle like the Stevens 334, but the balance point sits 14 inches ahead of the trigger guard, aiding off-hand stability. The barrel’s 5/8x24 thread pattern accepts standard muzzle devices, and the 44.5-inch length when disassembled fits most hard-sided Pelican cases without modification.
Who is this NOT for?
This is not a rifle for beginners or those recoil-sensitive; the .300 PRC generates over 28 ft-lbs of free recoil energy even with the brake engaged. New shooters should consider starting with a milder Stevens 334 in .243 Win — our editorial take or a suppressed platform to build fundamentals. It’s also poorly suited for thick brush hunting—the 26-inch barrel snags easily, and the 8.85-pound weight becomes cumbersome after 6 hours of stalking.
What's in the box?
You receive the rifle, one 4-round detachable box magazine, and the AccuFit comb/stock adjustment kit with three length-of-pull spacers and four comb-height shims. Unlike some competitors, Ironclad Armory includes a thread protector and a basic set of hex wrenches for the muzzle brake and stock adjustments. There is no optic rail included—plan to add a 20 MOA base, which typically adds $90-$150 and 3.2 ounces to the setup.
Is the Savage 110 Long Range Hunter worth it at $1073.99?
At this price, it delivers exceptional value for handloaders and long-range hunters who need out-of-the-box accuracy without a custom build. The action is square and lapped from the factory, consistently printing sub-MOA groups with match ammunition—something that would cost $2,200+ from a semi-custom builder. However, the synthetic stock lacks the rigidity of a chassis system; serious competitors may still need to drop $600-$800 on an aftermarket stock to eliminate flex during barricade work.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with AICS pattern magazines?
- Yes, it uses Savage's proprietary centerfeed magazine system, which is dimensionally compatible with AICS patterns but requires specific Savage magazines for reliable feeding. The included magazine holds 4 rounds, and aftermarket options from Magpul or Accurate-Mag run $45-$65 each.
- Does the muzzle brake reduce recoil significantly?
- The adjustable brake cuts perceived recoil by approximately 40%, dropping free recoil energy from 28 ft-lbs to around 16.8 ft-lbs with full-power .300 PRC loads. It requires tightening to 25 ft-lbs with a wrench after initial setup to prevent carbon lock during extended firing strings.
- How long does shipping take to Montana?
- Ironclad Armory processes FFL shipments within 2 business days, with transit time to Montana averaging 4 days via UPS Ground. The entire process from order to FFL pickup typically completes in 6-8 days, barring regulatory delays.
- Can I return it if the accuracy is poor?
- Ironclad Armory accepts returns within 30 days for factory-defective accuracy, defined as groups larger than 1.5 MOA with match-grade ammunition. You must provide a 5-shot group target shot at 100 yards; returns require a $75 restocking fee and original packaging.
