I also just purchased a Savage 110 Desert Tactical in 6mm Creedmoor. It is built using the same Savage short action (SA), center feed (CF:4.40" spacing), top bolt release (TBR) action as the current Savage SA, Center Feed models (10, 11, 12, 14, 16), or the Cabela's 12FV. The Savage Accufit/Accustock is what has changed. This model also comes with a AICS magazine frame assembly. The metal AICS magazine frame assembly (surround) is a stand alone part. The newly designed trigger guard and AICS magazine frame assembly are not one part. The older Savage metal DBM/HFP frame assembly will fit/work in the new Accufit-Accustock. The Accustock recoil lug is narrower and shorter than a standard Savage recoil lug. Therefore, a barreled action with a standard Savage recoil lug will not fit into an Accustock, but a barreled action with an Accustock recoil lug will fit into a Savage SA, CF, DBM or BM stock.
The new Savage AICS magazine frame assembly on the Savage 110 Desert Tactical would not fit into any of my Savage factory or aftermarket stocks with the current Savage SA, CF, DBM/HPF inlet. Bottom line: The Savage 110 Desert Tactical barreled action in 6.5 Creedmoor will fit into a Savage factory or aftermarket, SA, CF (4.40"), TBR stock with a varmint barrel channel. However, the new Savage AICS magazine frame assembly will not drop into a Savage SA (10, 11, 12, 14, 16), CF, DBM stock inlet without some significant fitting work. You would also need a Savage metal DBM frame assembly, SA metal magazine box and follower, and metal bottom plate. A Savage SA, CF, TBR Blind Magazine (BM) stock would also work with a Sharp Shooter Supply single-shot ramp.
