After many years of waiting, it appears Magpul has finally answered the call of many Savage owners and will start offering their widely popular Hunter stock for third generation short-action Savage 110 rifles with 4.40" action screw spacing and centerfeed magazine system. This is sure to be a game changer in the stock market for those looking for a reasonably affordable aftermarket synthetic stock for their Savage 110 rifle. The Magpul 110 Hunter stock offers an ergonomic design that can equally be deployed for both hunting and target shooting.
While this new offering won't appease those with the older first and second generation Savage short-actions, one really can't expect Magpul to cater to that relatively limited market. First generation short-actions haven't been produced since 1988, and second generation short-actions were only produced from 1998-2006-ish making them both limited stagnant markets. From a business perspective you want to enter a market that is both established and continuing to grow, which is what the third generation short-action market offers.
The good news is that if/when Magpul decides to offer the new 110 Hunter stock for long-actions it should fit all long-action 110's dating back to 1966 with little to no modification since the action screw spacing never changed. The only possible "gotcha" for the older staggered-feed long-actions made before 2006 would be if the Magpul magazines would require the magazine port in the bottom of the action to be opened up slightly for clearance of the thicker plastic feed lips.
Details on the new Savage 110 Hunter stock per Magpul's website:
The Hunter 110 Stock is the latest addition to the Magpul Hunter stock product line. It features enhanced ergonomics, versions for both right and left-hand actions, eight M-LOK slots for mounting options, and a fully adjustable length of pull and comb height. These features have been optimally designed to provide a more stable shooting platform, improved user comfort and individual accessory customization. Like its predecessors, the Magpul Hunter 110 features a Type III hard anodized, machine-finished, cast aluminum bedding block that doesn’t require bedding and is a true “drop-in” stock solution.

The Hunter 110 also includes our Bolt Action Magazine Well – Hunter 110 and one PMAG® 5 7.62 AC for optimal functionality with detachable box magazines that don’t require custom inletting.
