• Prioritize Precision at Range: The combination of the 6.5 PRC caliber and a premium Proof Research barrel ensures exceptional accuracy for ethical long-range shots on game or precise target engagements.
• Seek Customizable Ergonomics: The AccuFit stock system provides unparalleled adjustability, allowing every shooter to achieve a personalized fit for optimal comfort, recoil management, and consistency.
• Demand Reliability in Harsh Conditions: Constructed with a stainless steel receiver and Melonite finish, it offers superior resistance to corrosion and wear, crucial for unpredictable weather.

This rifle answers the fundamental questions: "What is the best lightweight hunting rifle for mountain terrain?" or "How can I achieve long-range accuracy with a portable firearm?" It is meticulously crafted to solve the inherent conflict between powerful performance and carry weight, delivering both in spades.

Unrivaled Lightness and Precision: The Proof Research Carbon Fiber Barrel

At the heart of the Savage 110 Ultralight’s remarkable performance is its 24-inch Proof Research carbon fiber wrapped barrel. Proof Research barrels are renowned in the shooting world for their exceptional quality and innovative design. Unlike traditional heavy steel barrels, Proof Research barrels achieve an incredible weight reduction without sacrificing rigidity or accuracy.

• Weight Reduction: The carbon fiber wrapping over a high-quality steel core shaves off significant weight, contributing immensely to the rifle’s overall 6-pound mass. This is a game-changer for hunters who spend days navigating steep ascents and descents.
• Enhanced Stiffness and Accuracy: Carbon fiber, when applied correctly, increases the barrel's stiffness, which translates to reduced barrel whip and improved harmonic consistency. This rigidity helps maintain point of impact, especially during rapid firing or under varying environmental conditions.
• Superior Heat Dissipation: The unique properties of carbon fiber allow for more efficient heat dissipation compared to all-steel barrels. This is critical for maintaining accuracy during prolonged shooting sessions or when taking multiple shots, as overheating can lead to accuracy degradation.
• Durability and Longevity: Proof Research barrels are built to last, providing excellent corrosion resistance and extending the barrel's effective lifespan, even with the powerful 6.5 PRC cartridge.

This cutting-edge barrel technology is a primary reason why the Savage 110 Ultralight can deliver match-grade accuracy typically associated with much heavier rifles, making it a standout option for serious big-game hunting and precision shooting at extended distances.

The Power and Versatility of the 6.5 PRC Caliber

The choice of the 6.5 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) for the Savage 110 Ultralight is a testament to its design as a high-performance hunting and long-range shooting platform. The 6.5 PRC has rapidly gained popularity among discerning shooters for several compelling reasons:

• Superior Ballistics: The 6.5 PRC is designed for efficiency, launching high Ballistic Coefficient (BC) bullets at impressive velocities. This results in a flatter trajectory, less wind drift, and excellent energy retention downrange compared to many traditional hunting calibers.
• Long-Range Efficacy: With its inherent accuracy and flat-shooting nature, the 6.5 PRC excels at extended ranges, making it an ethical choice for taking game at distances where other cartridges might struggle to maintain sufficient energy or precision.
• Manageable Recoil: Despite its power, the 6.5 PRC offers more manageable recoil than larger magnum cartridges, especially when paired with a lightweight rifle. This translates to less shooter fatigue, quicker follow-up shots, and enhanced comfort during practice sessions or critical moments in the field.
• Versatility for Game: The 6.5 PRC is highly effective on a wide range of North American game, including deer, elk, and bear. Its balance of velocity, energy, and terminal performance ensures clean, humane kills when bullets are properly placed.
• 1:8" Twist Rate: The 1:8" twist rate of the barrel is optimized for stabilizing a wide array of popular 6.5mm bullets, particularly the heavier, high-BC projectiles that unlock the 6.5 PRC's full long-range potential. This ensures consistent accuracy across various ammunition choices.

For those asking, "Which caliber is best for long-range hunting with a lightweight rifle?" or "What are the advantages of the 6.5 PRC?", the Savage 110 Ultralight provides a definitive, high-performance answer.

Ergonomic Excellence: The AccuFit Stock System and KUIU Verde 2.0

Savage Arms is renowned for its commitment to user-centric design, and the AccuFit stock system is a prime example of this philosophy. The synthetic AccuFit stock on the 110 Ultralight provides unprecedented customization options, allowing every shooter to achieve a fit tailored precisely to their unique physique and shooting style.

• Adjustable Length of Pull (LOP): The stock features multiple spacers, allowing shooters to easily adjust the length of pull. This ensures the rifle fits comfortably and naturally against the shoulder, promoting consistent cheek weld and eye alignment with optics. A proper LOP is crucial for recoil absorption and maintaining control. The fixed LOP is set at 13.75 inches from the factory, but is readily adjustable.
• Adjustable Comb Height: The interchangeable comb inserts allow users to fine-tune the cheek weld, ensuring optimal head position for consistent sight picture through a scope. This is particularly important for precision shooting and minimizing neck strain.
• KUIU Verde 2.0 Finish: Beyond its functional advantages, the stock is finished in the distinctive KUIU Verde 2.0 camouflage pattern. KUIU is a leader in high-performance hunting gear, and their Verde 2.0 pattern is specifically designed for stealth in diverse environments, from rocky mountainsides to dense forests. This aesthetic integration not only enhances the rifle's visual appeal but also provides practical concealment for hunters.
• Durable Synthetic Material: The synthetic construction of the stock ensures lightweight durability, resistance to harsh weather conditions, and minimal maintenance. It will not warp, crack, or swell with changes in temperature or humidity, making it reliable in any climate.

The AccuFit system directly addresses the question, "How can I make my rifle fit me perfectly for better accuracy and comfort?" by providing a simple, effective, and user-friendly solution that significantly enhances the shooting experience.

The Legendary AccuTrigger: Precision and Safety Combined

No discussion of a Savage rifle is complete without highlighting the AccuTrigger. This revolutionary, user-adjustable trigger system has set a new standard for factory triggers, offering a crisp, clean break with adjustable pull weight, all while maintaining superior safety.

• User-Adjustable Pull Weight: Shooters can safely and easily adjust the trigger pull weight down to a remarkably light setting, often around 1.5 to 2.5 pounds. This ability to fine-tune the trigger allows for maximum precision, as a lighter, crisper pull minimizes shooter-induced movement during the shot.
• Crisp, Clean Break: The AccuTrigger eliminates creep and overtravel, resulting in a glass-rod-like break that contributes significantly to accuracy. This predictable break is essential for consistent shot placement, especially at longer distances.
• Integrated Safety Blade: A critical safety feature, the AccuRelease blade prevents accidental discharges if the rifle is dropped or jarred. The trigger cannot be pulled unless the blade is depressed, providing an extra layer of security without hindering the shooting process.

For hunters and precision shooters, the AccuTrigger answers the call for a high-performance trigger right out of the box, eliminating the need for costly aftermarket modifications. It empowers shooters to achieve their full accuracy potential safely and reliably.

Robust Construction and Design Details

Beyond its headline features, the Savage 110 Ultralight is built with meticulous attention to detail and robust components, ensuring its longevity and performance in demanding scenarios.

• Stainless Steel Receiver: The receiver, the heart of the rifle, is constructed from durable stainless steel. This material provides exceptional strength and corrosion resistance, crucial for a rifle exposed to various environmental elements in the field.
• Black Melonite Finish: The stainless steel receiver is treated with a Black Melonite finish. This advanced treatment enhances surface hardness, improving wear resistance and providing an additional layer of protection against rust and corrosion. It also gives the rifle a sleek, non-reflective tactical appearance.
• Bolt Action: The proven bolt action mechanism of the 110 series is known for its reliability and smooth operation. The robust action ensures consistent feeding, extraction, and ejection, vital for dependable performance in the field.
• Sights and Optics Ready: The rifle comes without integrated open sights, emphasizing its design for precision optics. The receiver is drilled and tapped, ready for easy mounting of scope bases, allowing users to choose their preferred long-range optics without any additional gunsmithing.
• Capacity: With a 2-round capacity, the rifle is optimized for typical hunting scenarios where quick follow-up shots are less common than careful, deliberate single shots. This compact capacity also contributes to the rifle's lightweight and sleek profile.
• Overall Length (OAL): At 44.50 inches, the rifle strikes an excellent balance between barrel length for velocity and accuracy, and overall compactness for maneuverability in dense cover or during transport.
