Savage 110 Precision 6.5 Creedmoor 24in MDT Chassis FDE
About this product
What is the Savage 110 Precision 6.5 Creedmoor 24in MDT Chassis FDE? It is a purpose-built, modular long-range rifle platform that uses Savage's proven 110 action and pairs it with an MDT aluminum chassis, a target-heavy barrel, and a fully adjustable trigger. This isn't a sporter that's been retrofitted for a PRS match. It's factory-engineered for mechanical consistency under recoil, designed for the shooter who needs to make repeatable first-round cold-bore hits at distance without the custom shop price tag. Its 5/8-24 muzzle threads mean it's suppressor-ready out of the box, though you'll need proper NFA paperwork to take advantage of that.
What is the Savage 110 Precision 6.5 Creedmoor 24in MDT Chassis FDE used for?
You use this rifle for precision rifle series (PRS) production-class competition and disciplined long-range target shooting. I've seen it win club matches and hold its own as a training rifle for law enforcement snipers working within budget constraints. The 24-inch heavy contour and 1:8 twist rate stabilize the 130-147 grain bullets that define the 6.5 Creedmoor, making 800 to 1,200-yard shots a repeatable exercise in fundamentals. The chassis accepts AICS-pattern magazines like MDT's own 10-round polymer mags for smooth feeding, and the 20 MOA EGW rail is standard for mounting a high-mil scope without needing an aftermarket base.
How does the Savage 110 Precision compare to the Stevens 334?
This rifle is significantly more capable for deliberate, supported shooting than our the Stevens 334 in .308 Win. The Stevens 334 is a 6.8-pound, traditional-stocked hunting gun with a hunting-profile barrel that heats up fast and flexes easily. The 110 Precision's 9.5-pound chassis and heavy barrel provide a stable, repeatable platform that resists mirage-inducing heat after 5 shots—where the Stevens is already walking groups. The 110 is the better tool for the bench; the Stevens is the better tool for carrying all day.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 9.5 pounds unloaded, which increases to approximately 11.8 pounds with a 26-ounce scope, rings, and a loaded magazine. The overall length is 45.5 inches with the factory brake installed, but plan for 41 inches if you later configure it as an SBR with a 16-inch barrel—a legal process requiring an ATF Form 1. The MDT LSS XL chassis has an adjustable length of pull (LOP) from 12.5 inches to 15.5 inches, accommodating shooters from 5'6" to 6'4" without requiring a new stock.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not for a new shooter looking for a first deer rifle. It's heavy, it's loud with the factory brake, and its ergonomics are optimized for a prone or supported position, not for carrying slung over a shoulder for miles. If your primary goal is to take one or two shots from a tree stand at 150 yards, you'll be better served with a lighter, simpler rifle like the Stevens 334 in .243 Win — our editorial take. This Savage is designed for the shooter who will put 40 rounds downrange in an afternoon, analyzing each shot on a data card.
What's in the box?
You receive the barreled action fitted to the MDT chassis, one 5-round AICS-pattern metal magazine, the factory-installed radial port muzzle brake, and a set of user manuals covering the AccuTrigger adjustment and chassis setup. The paperwork includes the ATF-required safety notice. Savage does not include thread protectors; if you remove the brake, you'll need to source a 5/8-24 thread protector or a direct-thread suppressor mount.
Is the Savage 110 Precision worth it at $1,574.99?
At $1,574.99, it offers a compelling value for a turnkey precision rifle. Building a comparable rifle from an aftermarket action, custom-fitted barrel, and chassis system often starts north of $2,200 before gunsmithing fees. You are paying for the Savage's barrel- nut system, which allows for simpler barrel changes without a lathe—a major cost-saving for handloaders who want to experiment. If your budget is tight but your accuracy standards are high, this is the entry point.

Pros & cons
What works
- 9.5-pound chassis and barrel combo resists heat-induced point-of-impact shift for 8-10 shot strings
- User-adjustable AccuTrigger breaks cleanly at factory-set 2.5 lbs with minimal overtravel
- 5/8-24 threaded muzzle is suppressor-ready for NFA-compliant setups
- 20 MOA EGW rail provides 80-100 MOA of elevation travel with standard long-range optics
Trade-offs
- Factory radial brake is aggressive—produces 128 dB of perceived blast to the shooter's sides at a bench
- Chassis has no integrated storage for spare magazines or tools
- Flat Dark Earth Cerakote shows handling marks and carbon fouling more visibly than matte black

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with PMAG AICS magazines?
- Yes, it's compatible with any AICS-pattern short-action box magazine, including Magpul's 5-round and 10-round PMAGs. The factory ships with a steel 5-rounder, but many competitors prefer the polymer PMAGs—which run about $40 from Brownells—for their smoother feed lips and lighter weight.
- Does it fit in a standard rifle case?
- No, the 45.5-inch overall length requires a 48-inch or larger takedown case for safe transport. Hard cases like the Pelican 1750 (interior length 50.5 inches) or soft drag bags like the Savior Equipment Urban Warfare Rifle Bag (51 inches) are appropriate. For comparison, our Stevens 555 shotguns typically need a 50-inch case for their 30-inch barrels.
- How long does shipping take?
- We ship most firearms within 2 business days after receiving a cleared background check. Transit time via FedEx 2Day is typically 3-5 business days to your selected FFL dealer. You must coordinate pickup with your local FFL prior to placing your order.
- Does the barrel threading accept a suppressor?
- Yes, the 5/8-24 threaded muzzle is the standard pitch for .30 caliber suppressors, including models from SilencerCo (Omega 300) and Dead Air (Sandman-S). You will need to purchase the suppressor under ATF Form 4 regulations—a process that currently averages 230-280 days for approval—before attaching it.
- Can I swap the barrel to another caliber?
- Yes, the Savage 110 uses a barrel-nut system, allowing you to change to another short-action Savage-pattern barrel chambered in .308 Win, 6mm Creedmoor, or .223 Remington with basic tools. A pre-fit, chambered barrel from a vendor like Criterion Barrels costs about $400 and requires a barrel vise, action wrench, and headspace gauges to install properly.
