    No, you don't need it. It was for older models. To the best of my knowledge there hasn't been a savage made like that in some years now.

    Russellc,
    If your rifle is new you shouldn't need the bolt alignment cut in the bolt head as this is a feature on the older 110s. The bolt alignment pin is only present on the bolts of my 110 flat back actions and the accompanying bolt head has the alignment cut. To be sure though, remove the bolt from your rifle and turn it over. About 1" below the rear bolt baffle halfway between the ends of the bolt retaining pin you will see the indentation in your bolt which is the bolt alignment pin if its present. See the pic below. If this indentation is not present on your bolt, you do not need a bolt alignment cut on your PTG bolt head. Hope this helps you confirm presence/absence.
