DATE: August 4, 2010
LOCATION: Angeles Shooting Range, Sylmar CA.
SCOPE: Nightforce NXS2256 Scope
WIND: 5 mph at 300 yds, direct right to left, zero wind at the shooting bench/

We shot a total of 56 factory rounds (250 and 300 gr) and the 110 preferred the 300 gr rounds. 5 shots touching in a 1 inch group with the 300 gr rounds at 300 yds. The spread opened up to 4 inches high and to the left of the 300 gr group with the 250 gr rounds. Felt recoil was not excessive, comparable to a 308 and much less than my Sako TRG-42 with the same 300 gr rounds. Since my knees didn't feel like walking out 600 yards and back, we settled for shooting the metal rams and pigs at that distance. Again, the 300 gr rounds worked fine with 20 hits out of 20 shots. We only made 14 hits out of 20 rounds with the 250 gr rounds using a lot of Kentucky windage to get on target.
We had trouble with the accutrigger disengaging the sear at random. I called Savage Customer Service and with a minimum of questions asked, they instructed me to take the 110 to Bolsa Gunsmithing, our gunsmith who configured the rifle and have them order a new trigger assembly.

We did not use the BORS as we are waiting until we can chrono some rounds to get actual velocity figures.

Here are some pics of the configured rifle.
