I am having the EXACT same issue. I bought this rifle with the intention of using the Williams/iron sights only. I'm shooting at least 2" high at 100m (109y) with 168 gn hand loads. My rear sight is lowered to the point where it's barely clear of the rear baffle on the bolt, and I'm still at least 2" high. Savage USA asked me to return the rifle to them until they realized that I'm in Canada - womp womp womp. Now I'm dealing with Savage Canada, but their process is entirely different. I want to love this rifle, but we're off to a rocky start. I'm going to wait for Savage Canada to step up to the plate (or fall of it, depending on their answer). I know of at least one other 110 Scout owner in Canada who reports the exact same issue.









Bottom line is that the front sight is too low.

I'm looking into other winged/protected front sight options, like Mini 14/30, or if my dreams come true, and adjustable height front post like the M16A2 style front post. I expect they will require gunsmithing to some degree.

Let's keep this post going...
