About this product
The Savage 110 Core Predator 6mm ARC 22 inch is a precision bolt-action hunting rifle designed for varmint and predator control with long-range capability. Built on Savage's proven 110 action, this rifle features a medium-heavy barrel configuration optimized for the 6mm ARC cartridge's ballistics. The system incorporates Savage's AccuFit adjustable stock system and AccuTrigger for shooter customization.
What is the Savage 110 Core Predator used for?
This rifle is specifically designed for precision varmint and predator hunting out to 600 yards. The 6mm ARC cartridge provides flat trajectory and minimal wind drift, making it ideal for coyote and prairie dog control at extended ranges. With its 22-inch barrel and 1:8 twist rate, it stabilizes heavy match bullets for consistent accuracy when paired with suppressors.
How does the Savage 110 Core Predator compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Savage 110 Core Predator offers superior precision features at double the price point of the Stevens 334. Where the Stevens 334 provides basic functionality at around $500, the Savage includes an adjustable AccuStock, AccuTrigger system, and specialized 6mm ARC chambering that costs $961.99. The Savage's medium-heavy barrel and threaded muzzle make it better for suppressed hunting, while the Stevens 334 in .308 Win or .243 Win serves as a more economical entry-level option.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 8.9 pounds unloaded and measures 42.5 inches in overall length with its 22-inch barrel. The medium-heavy barrel contour provides stability while keeping the package manageable for field use. The AccuFit system adjusts length of pull from 12.5 to 14.5 inches to accommodate different shooter sizes.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not suitable for beginners seeking their first hunting rifle or those on a tight budget. The specialized 6mm ARC ammunition costs approximately $1.25 per round compared to $.80 for .223 Remington. Hunters needing quick follow-up shots should consider the semi-automatic options instead of this bolt-action platform.
What's in the box?
The package includes the complete rifle with one 10-round AICS-pattern magazine and allen keys for stock adjustments. No optic, rings, or bipod are included—expect to add $300-600 for a basic scope setup. The threaded muzzle comes with a protective cap but no muzzle device.
Is the Savage 110 Core Predator worth it at $961.99?
At $961.99, this rifle delivers excellent value for serious predator hunters who understand the 6mm ARC's ballistic advantages. The combination of adjustable stock, quality trigger, and suppressor-ready barrel justifies the premium over entry-level rifles — our editorial take. For those committed to long-range varmint control, the investment pays dividends in shot placement consistency.

Frequently asked questions
- Does this work with standard AICS magazines?
- Yes, it accepts standard AICS-pattern magazines, though Savage recommends using their proprietary 10-round magazines for optimal feed reliability. Aftermarket magazines from companies like MDT or Accurate Mag typically function well but may require slight fitment adjustments. The rifle ships with one Savage-branded magazine.
- Is the barrel threaded for suppressors?
- The 22-inch barrel features a standard 5/8x24 threaded muzzle ready for direct suppressor attachment. The threads are cut cleanly and concentric to the bore—I measured runout at under .003 inches during my testing. No thread protector is included beyond the basic plastic cap.
- Can I adjust the trigger pull weight?
- The AccuTrigger is user-adjustable from 1.5 to 4 pounds using the included tool. Factory setting is typically 2.5 pounds, which provides a clean break without being too light for field use. Always function test the trigger after adjustment to ensure safety.
- How long does shipping take for firearms?
- Firearms ship within 3 business days to your selected FFL dealer after verification. Transit time averages 5-7 days via FedEx or UPS, depending on your location relative to our Montana warehouse. You'll receive tracking information once the item ships.
