Re: savage 110ba .338 lapua magnum

hey mrhaymaker it can take 350 gr bullets when they make them??? it also has a 1:9 twist barrel for heavier bullets. also of note is that savage made the comment that it has the thickest heaviest bolt head they make and after getting it i can say it is.

Haymaker: The 1:9 twist should stabilize most any .338 projectile, but it will be particularly well suited to the longer "slipperier" heavies (300 grain and higher). In my preliminary workups in the 110BA, the new Berger 300 grain bullets have performed admirably.

As a testament to the strength of the new Savage action, in destructive testing, the rifle has withstood well over double the maximum SAAMI chamber pressure before damage was noted.

How have you adjusted to the pistol grip configuration? I shot this at a training I went to for Gander Mtn and the only thing I did not like about the gun (aside from the fact that the Savage rep had a badass Vortex Razor on it and never bothered to zero the gun) was how it feels like the stock forces you to pull very high on the trigger if you want to pull it straight back.

I wouldve ordered mine that day if it wasnt for that, I probably still will as I get an insane discount on one of these rifles.
