110 storm good or bad ??

[deerhunter99]

I want to buy a new 110 storm in 270wsm, it has the heavy barrel I like that a lot, it the one savage is replacing the weather warrior with, I really like my weather warrior has anyone used a 110 storm and how do you like it ???

Not an answer, but a question. Which Weather Warrior do you have? I want to get one before all the new ones are all gone.

Mine is a 116 caliber 6.5x284 Norma I don't think I have every had a better gun !!!!

The 110 Storm has a Accufit-Accustock and thus a custom fittable stock and a new trigger guard design. I think it feels and handles better than older WW Accustock.

Thank you for the reply ip I know I said I was wanting the 270wsm, but I think I will go with the 7mm mag, I do hunt over a bean field !!!

If Savage Arms will ever release it, the 110 Storm in 280AI would also be nice. I’ve got a 280AI built on a Savage LWH action with 23” lightweight barrel. I get 7mm RM listed factory load MV with less powder and recoil.

Well when it came right down to it I could not put 116 WW down an go with a new rifle, I am going to stay with my old friend !!!!

My next rifle will be a 116 WW in 30-06.

I've got one in 6.5CM with the 22" sporter barrel (Sku 57077) and I'm happy with it.

After some tinkering (tuning action bolts and fixing a spot where the barrel was touching the stock) and a few rounds of load development I'll get 0.75" 5 shot groups @ 100 yards. I don't shoot that well every day. Sometimes I'll get 1.5" 5 shot groups depending on the day.

I was consistently pinging a 12" plate at 550 yards . Moved out to 600 and dropped down to about 80% hits and out to 650 where After 8 rounds I gave up because the wind was blowing through a canyon in all different directions. I wasn't really shooting slow enough to let barrel cool off for any of those tests--and I should have. I'll have to give it another try on a calm day.

Either way It does what I need it to do and it buy it again. If I wanted to shoot little groups at long distances and I didn't care about weight or money maybe I'd consider the long range hunter.

What are you considering a heavy barrel? It's a magnum contour, which is thicker than the sporter contour, but it's not nearly as big as a varmint contour. Just want to make sure you're not expecting it to be a varmint profile, because it isn't if that's what you're looking for. As for the Accu-stock, I've got a newer 110 LRH with it. I haven't shot it yet, but I like the feel of the stock and the ability to adjust it.
