    Savage 110 long range hunter need reviews


    I'm looking at getting the lrh in 6.5x284. How heavy is this gun I know what website says but wanted someone who has held one to tell me. I'll be carrying it in for deer hunting and maybe hunt out west. Thanks

    6.5CM.

    I live on a ranch in New Mexico and I no longer hunt but my neighbor and his two teen daughters, 13 & 16, do...the 16yo used this last year and harvested an elk. If a 16 year old can carry it in the field and take a bull elk with it, I would have to say "yep" for her it was a good hunting platform.

    I put a 4-12x50 Leupold Freedom scope on it for her and when she was practicing she used the brake but after a while decided to turn it off....said it was "too loud"! Her elk was at 250 yards and she used Hornady's Premium Hunter 143 ELD-X.


    Be interested to know how your 6.5x284 shoots if you get it.
