Savage 110 Hog Hunter 400 Legend Rifle
About this product
What is the Savage 110 Hog Hunter 400 Legend Rifle? It's a purpose-built bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in .400 Legend, designed specifically for medium-range hog and deer hunting applications. This rifle combines Savage's proven 110 action platform with field-ready features including an adjustable AccuFit stock system and threaded muzzle for suppressor compatibility.
What is the Savage 110 Hog Hunter 400 Legend Rifle used for?
The Savage 110 Hog Hunter is engineered for close-to-medium range hunting of feral hogs and whitetail deer in thick cover where shots rarely exceed 200 yards. Its .400 Legend chambering delivers terminal ballistics similar to .450 Bushmaster but with significantly less recoil, making it ideal for hunters who need quick follow-up shots on moving targets. The threaded 5/8×24 muzzle allows for direct suppressor mounting without adapters, reducing overall length and maintaining balance.
How does the Savage 110 Hog Hunter compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Savage 110 Hog Hunter outperforms the Stevens 334 Rifle in trigger quality and stock adjustability, though it costs approximately $200 more. While both rifles share Savage's parent company ownership, the 110 Hog Hunter features the superior AccuTrigger system with a crisp 2.5-6 pound adjustable pull weight versus the Stevens' fixed 4-pound trigger. The AccuFit system provides 1.5 inches of length-of-pull adjustment and 0.75 inches of comb height adjustment, allowing precise fit that the fixed synthetic stock on the Stevens 334 cannot match.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The Savage 110 Hog Hunter weighs 7.3 pounds unloaded and measures 42.5 inches in overall length with a 20-inch barrel. This weight distribution makes it manageable for extended carries through dense brush while maintaining enough mass to absorb .400 Legend recoil effectively. The 20-inch barrel provides optimal velocity for the cartridge while keeping the rifle compact enough for vehicle or blind use.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not suitable for long-range precision shooting beyond 300 yards or for hunters who require lightweight mountain rifles. The .400 Legend cartridge experiences significant bullet drop beyond 250 yards, and the 7.3-pound weight makes it heavier than dedicated lightweight hunting rifles like some Kimber models that weigh under 6 pounds. Additionally, the synthetic stock lacks the aesthetic appeal of walnut or laminate options found on higher-end hunting rifles.
What's in the box?
The rifle ships with one 4-round detachable box magazine, iron sights pre-zeroed for 100 yards, and mounting hardware for the AccuFit adjustment system. Unlike some competitors, Savage includes both comb height spacers and length-of-pull inserts in the package, allowing immediate customization without additional purchases. The receiver comes pre-drilled and tapped for scope bases using 6-48 screws, compatible with most Savage-specific mounting systems.
Is the Savage 110 Hog Hunter worth it at $613.99?
At $613.99, the Savage 110 Hog Hunter delivers exceptional value for hunters specifically targeting medium-sized game in dense terrain. The combination of adjustable features, suppressor-ready threading, and proven reliability justifies the price premium over entry-level rifles like the Stevens 334. For hunters who need a dedicated brush gun with modern features, this rifle represents one of the most cost-effective solutions in the .400 Legend market segment.

Frequently asked questions
- Is the muzzle threading compatible with .30 caliber suppressors?
- Yes, the 5/8×24 threading is standard for .30 caliber suppressors and many .458 caliber models. Most major suppressor manufacturers including SilencerCo and Dead Air produce direct-thread mounts in this pattern. The threads are cut to SAE specifications with proper shoulder alignment for concentric mounting.
- Does the detachable magazine work with aftermarket options?
- The rifle uses Savage's proprietary magazine system, limiting aftermarket options to companies like Magpul who produce compatible versions. The factory magazine has a 4-round capacity, while some aftermarket options offer 5 or 10-round capacities. Magazine availability is more limited than AR-platform magazines but sufficient for hunting applications.
- Can I use .450 Bushmaster ammunition in this rifle?
- No, .400 Legend and .450 Bushmaster are not interchangeable cartridges. Attempting to fire .450 Bushmaster in a .400 Legend chamber can cause dangerous pressure spikes and cartridge case failures. Always use only .400 Legend ammunition specifically manufactured to SAAMI specifications for this firearm.
- How long does shipping take to FFL dealers?
- Standard shipping to licensed FFL dealers typically takes 3-5 business days after processing. All firearms require shipment to a federally licensed dealer for background check and transfer. Processing time adds 1-2 business days before shipment, depending on order volume and verification procedures.
- Does the iron sight system allow for quick optics mounting?
- Yes, the iron sights are designed to co-witness with low-mounted optics using standard Savage 110 scope bases. The front sight is removable with a hex key, and the rear sight folds down completely when not needed. Most low-profile scope rings will provide clearance over the folded sights without removal.
