Nice work, Garret. For those who dont handload or spend alot of time shooting for group size, there is so much work that goes into it. But the satisfaction of having a great group with ammo you create is well worth it.

Good day at the range, in spite of the weather. Well narrated and interesting to watch! Looking forward to seeing the post-repair results in the next vid. ATB

Nice one Garrett I've been waiting for someone to review this rifle hope you get it back soon and all fixed up it's a sweet looking rifle

Great video

Can't wait to see the follow up to this story. Great video!

I have a couple Savages. Love them! Great shooting rifle! Quality firearm! I have nothing bad to say with Savage! Quality,dependable rifle. I have a 300 wnm in a 110 Savage for 25 years. Indestructible!!!

Great video can't wait to see what it will shoot when all is right with that gun.

Yessss!! Finally someone who shoots paper. Thank you for a great video!!

Great and very informative video, thanks!

Had the same thing happen to me with a Proof barrel chambered in 300 PRC. Had my smith recut it though. Proof offered to make it right, but I didn't want to wait.

Great video. Outstanding. What scope mount did you use? Did Savage say if other rifles had this problem as well? Hopefully this was a one off thing and will never happen again. Trying to decide on this rifle or the Bergara Wilderness B-14. Leaning towards the Savage because of the weight.

OK thank you I got one on the way but I’m just wondering if you had any more trouble with it

I actually had to send my 110 tactical in 6.5 PRC back to savage as well. After shooting 4 4-shot patterns with 2 different optics I called them. It’s getting a completely new barrel currently. I hope it shoots when I get it back.

Be cool to see how it handles the heavy 6.5 bullets like the 156 berger or the heavier woodleigh and norma offerings. Thanks for sharing and great groups for the amount of wind

I also get a random scuff on the necks where it's apparently tight.

Anyone have this rifle in 300WSM? Wondering if that mag will hold 3 rounds as well?

Is that low or high rings ..what kind of 20 moa rail is that

Great review. I've had issues finding scope mounts or picatinny rails where the hardware fits the threads and say they are for a SAVAGE 10 or 110 rnd with accutrigger. Can you tell which one you have mounted and if it's used for a 30mm tube? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the Video! I have been dying to see the accuracy of that specific rifle/caliber combo. Too bad about the bore issue, but glad it may have affected accuracy, as it seemed to be showing just MOA at best most of the time. I have a $65 223 barrel from Anderson that can do that with the right ammo. I also have the proof 308 barrel, and so far have been dissapointed. I was looking for bugholes, but am getting swiss cheese. My Savage barrel on the 6.5 dicks special is more accurate. I am starting to believe barrels are like women. Only one good one comes along in a great while. Anyway, great post and looking forward to seeing the results after they fix it!

Had a number of defective firearms that had to be send back. Some multiple times. On firearms, seems it doesn't matter what you spend anymore. Quality can be pretty shoddy on things that can't be seen from the outside. In your case, you can be out your money and minus a rifle all during hinting season waiting to get your gun back and maybe they fix it and maybe they don't. Thanks for truthing the whole situation. Personally, my experience with Savage is less than stellar. Hope your's comes back awesome.

Good video.

Have this gun in 7prc. Shoots well but having issues with a sticky bolt. Only have about 60 shots through it, hoping it’s just a break in issue. Anyone else have this problem?

What rail did you use and what muzzle break is that?

Where is the part two to this video

How do u shoot right handed guns left handed. ?

Can you confirm if that's a short action or long action 110 with the 6.5 PRC?

what did you end up using for the scope base/rails?

I had same issue with 6.5 2020 waypoint .

I love my savage 10 fcp but I have a similar-ish problem. Happens to be a creed not a PRC but it's super sensitive to case length and buildup in the throat. Not as bad as yours for sure, just similar. I want to rebarrel to something that's not one of the recent Hornady precision cartridges. They are great cartridges, definitely breaking new ground, but I dislike the trend of the super tight throats as a means of accurizing. I dislike getting pressure spikes and fliers in the middle of a session because of a normal amount of buildup. Even David Tubb hates it. Anyway, nice rifle, I'm jealous. Those things are a deal if you get the kinks worked out.

Now that's how you make a gun review!!!

How long did you wait for the barre to cool down between strings and shots? Just curious being the carbon barrel

What muzzle brake is that

I had to send my 110 tactical back to Savage. Never even got to shoot the damn thing. It was sold as a "Brand New" rifle and had a big scuff down to bare metal on the receiver. They told me it's a 3 week turnaround. 2 weeks to go. Hopefully it gets a new receiver. Bought it online of course. Nice rifle man!

@Reel-Lentless I totally agree it wasn't Savages fault. And yeah 6 weeks may be a quick turn around for some. The thing that got under my skin is that, had I not called them to ask about the status, they wouldn't have called or emailed a single update. They even forgot to send me the tracking number when they said it had shipped. It's not that I wouldnt buy another Savage, I just wouldnt buy it from an Online site so I can inspect the rifle before I purchase it. Other than that Savage is top notch in the warranty department.

I picked one of these up in 300 wsm about 7 months ago. I have tried 5 different premium types of ammunition, but can’t get better than 3-5 inch groups at 100 yards with the gun locked into a shooting vise. I’ve tried putting it into an MDT chassis to see it that would help, but it did not. I do notice that I really have to force the bolt to closed. I’m getting a bad case of buyers remorse at this point as it is the least accurate rifle I own. I have been in contact with proof research and they want me to send it back to Savage as they think there is an issue. I have reached out to them via email a few times but am not having much luck getting an RMA. How did you get ahold of them?

I use to be a big savage rifle person. As of last few years Ive saw many ppl with savage rifles with ruff chamber/bore or excessively tight freebore. I'm a ruger & howa person now. Much better quality control

What muzzle brake is that ?

So does the magazine hold 3 with a closed bolt? Otherwise even it holds 3 it’s still a 2+1 which is why Savage would advertise the mag only being able to hold 2 rounds. Can you have a round in the chamber and still load the mag with 3 rounds?

I have this rifle and a Bergara B-14 Wilderness. I have not had your issues yet, but I do know on average, the chamber .030 shorter on the Savage than the Bergara. The Bergara shoots! I’m sure the Savage will as well but was disappointed after the measurements. Hopefully shoot it this week. Some factory 147 EDL-M. We will see! Tried to load a Berger 135 Classic Hunter at .020 off the lands, the Savage would not close. Should have measured first. We will see what happens at the range.

Don’t even want to deal with any Savage reload issues PRC is out for me but thanks for your time. . .

Not the biggest savage fan, but it is pretty insane that they are able to offer this rifle for 1300 when its rocking a $900 barrel. Another $500 for a proper chassis and this might be worth giving a shot... Groups dont really seems to be where they should be for that barrel, even for factory, but its also brand new so who knows. Thanks for the upload.

I’m really interested in this rifle - cartridge combo. I know the 6.5 PRC is longer than most short action cartridges, and can’t find any info on what action length savage went with, is the mag length long enough to get to the lands with long ogive high bc bullets?

@ChuckinTV

EagleWorks Holsters yessir this is a SHORT action. Most custom shops will build these on a long action for that reason you mentioned. However the factory magazine is 3.010” and that’s plenty long for any bullet on the market currently

Garrett is running the Leupold Mark 4 pic rail on this. But EGW rails work fine as well. Whatever you get, just make sure you clean the taps and loctite the mounting screws and you won't have any issues.

Mag will hold 3 but wont go back into the gun on a closed bolt. So you cant have 3 + 1 in chamber. Open bolt it goes in fine and chamber the top round so its 2 + 1.

Maybe after 100 rounds the rifle will settle in and tighten up those groups. Or, maybe a Timney Trigger set at 1.8 - 2.0 lbs will improve things. I'm not a fan of the Savage Accutrigger.
