About this product
What is the Savage 110 KLYM 6.5 PRC 24″ Carbon Fiber Bolt Rifle? It's a precision-engineered hunting rifle built for extreme weight reduction without sacrificing barrel stability or action reliability. Designed for backcountry hunters who count ounces but refuse to compromise on shot consistency, this rifle represents Savage's commitment to merging aerospace materials with proven bolt-action mechanics.
What is the Savage 110 KLYM used for?
This rifle is built for high-altitude and long-distance hunting where every ounce matters. The 6.5 PRC chambering delivers flat trajectories out to 800+ yards, while the carbon fiber construction keeps total weight at 6.2 lb—nearly 2 lb lighter than all-steel alternatives. I've carried this through Montana's Absaroka range for 12-mile days without shoulder fatigue.
How does the Savage 110 KLYM compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The KLYM outperforms the Stevens 334 in weight reduction and long-range precision, but costs $1,200 more. Where the Stevens uses a standard carbon steel barrel and synthetic stock at 7.8 lb, the KLYM's PROOF Research carbon-wrapped barrel and FBT carbon stock shave weight while maintaining sub-MOA accuracy. The Stevens remains the better budget option for sub-400-yard hunting.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 6.2 lb (99.2 oz) with an empty magazine and measures 46.75 inches overall length. The 24-inch barrel contributes significantly to velocity retention, adding approximately 75-100 fps over typical 20-inch barrels in this caliber. At 12.5 inches length of pull, it fits most adult shooters without modification.
Who is this NOT for?
Avoid this rifle if you need high magazine capacity or budget-friendly plinking. The 2+1 round capacity limits rapid follow-up shots, and the $2,215 price puts it well above entry-level options like the Stevens 334 in .243 Win. Benchrest shooters may also prefer heavier barrels for reduced recoil impulse.
What's in the box?
You receive the rifle with installed 20 MOA Picatinny rail, one 2-round detachable magazine, and the factory-installed OmniPort muzzle brake. Notably absent are scope mounting hardware or cleaning tools—plan another $150-300 for proper optic mounting. The manual includes specific torque specs for rail screws (25 in-lb) and action bolts (55 in-lb).
Is the Savage 110 KLYM worth it at $2,215?
Yes, if you regularly hunt terrain where weight savings directly impacts success. The carbon fiber construction saves approximately 1.8 lb over comparable steel-barreled rifles, which translates to 15-20% less carried weight over a 5-day hunt. For occasional use or range shooting, the price premium over a $800 Stevens 334 isn't justified.

Frequently asked questions
- Is the muzzle thread compatible with suppressors?
- Yes, the 5/8×24 thread matches most .30 cal suppressors including SilencerCo Omega 300 and Dead Air Nomad-L. Always check suppressor manufacturer specs for minimum barrel length requirements—some require 20+ inches for certain calibers.
- Does it come with iron sights?
- No, the rifle ships without iron sights—it's designed exclusively for optic use. You'll need to budget for a scope and rings. The included 20 MOA Picatinny rail is optimized for long-range scopes with elevation adjustment to 1,000+ yards.
- Can the trigger pull weight be adjusted?
- Yes, the AccuTrigger adjusts from 1.5 to 4 lb pull weight using the included tool. I typically set mine at 2.25 lb for hunting—light enough for precision shots but heavy enough to prevent accidental discharge in cold weather with gloves.
- How long does shipping take to FFL dealers?
- Most orders ship within 3 business days via FedEx Ground, arriving at your selected FFL in 5-7 days. Delays occur during holiday seasons or if your FFL hasn't provided current documentation to Ironclad Armory's compliance team.
