I consider the ruger American to be a notch below the axis. I used to make aftermarket parts for both guns and I was never really impressed with the engineering in the ruger American. the 3 lug bolt was an effort to cut costs not an improvement.

Not sure if you know, but you can remove the bolt from the Ruger without removing the cheekpiece. Pull the bolt back, keep the release pushed in, and turn the bolt handle all the way to the opposite side of the receiver. Now that it's "upside down" you'll just barely have enough clearance to pull it out completely.

Ruger is better quality that’s my thing and better customer support….

Turn your bolt upside down as you clear the scope and you can then remove it! 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇬🇧

Should have compare with Savage Axis.. 110 is level up

I have a Ruger American Predator in 308 and love it. Mine is completely stock with a budget Bushnell 3-9 scope for a total investment of about $550. It works great for deer hunting in the woods of NH. Compact and easy to carry through the woods. Thanks for the video.

I have Tikka T3x in 6.5CM and with the factory barrel and my hand loads I can get 0.25moa. They are going up in price now and that’s why I was looking for a cheaper 308 that I can have fun with. I don’t hunt but I like to shoot bolt actions.

I own 2 Savage Rifles - a 110 in 7 Rem Mag and a MK 2 in 22lr. I have been very happy with both.

I love the Savage 110 rifles. I just picked up a 110 desert tactical in 6.5 PRC. Before i ever fired it i dropped it in a MDT XRS chassis, put on an area 419 Sidewinder muzzle device, and a Razor HD Gen3 6-36x56. The setup is heavy but holy cow is it accurate. Once i learned about the 1 piece scope mounts, i never went back to the 2 piece. The 1 piece is just easier/better.

Exactly what I needed to know, thank you for pointing out the differences so I could determine which one was best for me. It's a tough choice but I am going with the 110.

Good discussion of technical features. Most useful info I have seen in a comparison.

Great video. I like the Savage bolt and safety system. Your video helped my make a decision. Thanks!!

I have hunted deer with my Ruger American Predator 308 for about 12 years but im looking to get something more traditional with a wood stock. I just bought the Magpul stock and plan to turn the Ruger into a more modern hunting/tactical/target rifle.

Very well done. Keep at it and the subs will follow. You have an engaging presentation style and seem to know your stuff.

Very informational video thanks bud!

Have the Ruger American 'Go Wild' in .308. Dropped it into a Magpul Hunter stock, it is a literal tack driver. Bought a Savage 110 Hunter

Wow that savage you’ve got is sweet can you do a video on that rifle/ barrel looks like a heavy bull with a flutes may have description incorrect. But it’s nice

You can put a lighter trigger spring for the ruger to drop another pound. I have my ruger american predator 6.5 creed with a very light 3lbs and have a spring from. Mcardo spring. My be off a little on the brand name but its $12.95 Plus shipping. Going to try it and see if I like it. My trigger is already Sweet.

I have a savage in 17hmr. I put a rifle basix aftermarket sear in it to make trigger poundage light and it sure is light. Have you heard anything about the savage 110 varminter in the 223? I have been looking at it.

Who's stock is that on the 110?
