    Recently purchased 110 hog hunter in 350 legend

    With the introduction of this newer model there are very little reviews (understandable). There was one review in particular that had issues with the hornady 170 gr bullets. Anyone else here having issues with these bullets loading into the chamber? These were the bullets I intended on using. Also, what scope bases are recommended for this gun? I’ve seen DNz bases and weaver on piece rails - what is the brand and size that would be adequate for this rifle.

    Really hoping I don’t regret this purchase as it is perfect for the thicker brush hunting that I do.

    Thanks for Any input.

    Take a look at the EGW base for a long action. Rear of your receiver should be rounded, not flat like the older 110 actions. I have no experience with the 350 Legend, was thinking of building one myself.

    His 110 Hog Hunter is a short action, not a long action.

    Correct; 350 Legend is a short action round and fits a standard AR lower receiver with 350 Legend upper. The round is being picked up by more and more manufacturers and has good reviews. I personally just ordered a Ruger American Predator in that chambering. I like the Ruger because it is light. Nothing wrong with the round.

    I have the 350 legend in a Ruger American bolt rifle and it's a real fine shooter, you won't be sorry you bought it. I use winchester 145gr ammo and it hits hard and is suprisingly accurate at the distance I've shot mine at (160 yards). The recoil is mild like 7.62x39, but the 350 legend will take deer and hogs easily out to 200 yards or more. I see Savage has a bunch of 110 rifles in the caliber now, things are getting very interesting. Sorry to get away from your scope mount question, but I believe this rail will work nicely but call to make sure. Short action is what you need!

    Much as I hate to say it, but I think the Ruger American Ranch rifle is the way to go for a bolt-action in .350 Legend. Feeding with the Savage I recently reviewed was so-so at best, and since the Ruger uses AR mag's those wanting higher capacity where allowed have easy access to it.
