Saw a well used Savage 110 on a used gun rack. Marked 110H, I'm pretty sure it said Savage and not Stevens. Seemed to be a 70's-80's rifle with a Walnut stock & cheek-piece I think. Anyone ever heard of a Savage 110H?

I'm curious too as today I was in a gun shop asking about project receivers and the guy had a 110H with 243 barrel in pretty nice condition for $50. I'm probably going to buy it but if it's one of the intermediate length actions which are going to be hard to find a stock for then I don't want it. It's minus the bolt as well but for $50 and say sell the barrel for $20 I then have a 110H action for $30. That's a pretty darn hard deal to pass up on!
If it turns out being a J frame, let me know, I'll buy it from you!
Measure the action screws, should be the most sure way to tell!
Romans 10:9 "That if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
Do you know what the distance between the J series action screws are versus the other 110 series?
The J series screws are 4.522" apart.
The short actions have two different spacings shorter than that and the long action is about 4.75" or so. The J series is the only one near 4.5 inches.

Thanks for the info! I'll check it out in the next couple of weeks. The guy's shop is only open 3 days a week and he had to dig it out of the back so I can't see it being sold in the 6 working days or so til I make it back.
Its my understanding that the leters like "H" and "J" simply denote which level of engineering changes are incorporated in that rifle. A 110 J can be a long or short action. the different mounting bolt spacing denotes what it is, a short cartridge action due to the bolt spacer being longer to keep from over retracting thes bolt as if it was made for a long action cartridge like a 30-06. Hope I explained that right, if not someone I am sure will jump in with the correct information.
