And for good reason. From the outside, the distinctions are readily apparent. The 110 HC is dressed up in <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.truetimber.com\/patterns\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-savages-backcountry-xtreme-series-the-110-high-country\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.truetimber.com\/patterns\" target=\"_blank\">TrueTimber Strata<\/a>. This is a mottled pattern that is exceptionally versatile. It is as at home in the high desert as it is in the piney woods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-10.jpeg\" alt=\"The Savage 110 High Country\" class=\"wp-image-144031\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The 110 High Country has a TrueTimber Strata stock. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The stock itself is synthetic. It has some over-molded surfaces that give it a bit of extra grip, even when it is a bit wet. At the front and back of the stock are a set of traditional sling studs. There\u2019s nothing pretentious about the set-up, just the straightforward functionality of material composition, surfaces, and design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-6.jpeg\" alt=\"The 110 High Country\" class=\"wp-image-144029\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Savage has finished out the barrels in PVD. And it has a stylish twist.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The barrel and receiver have been sprayed with coyote brown ceramic physical vapor deposition (PVD). This PVD coating is exceptionally protective and can stand up to both heat and excessive wear. Savage says the coating is 2-4 microns thick. It looks sharp, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The High Country has some other functional\/aesthetic enhancements. The barrel is fluted in a dramatic spiral that runs most of its length. Savage button-rifles their barrels. The .308 High Country\u2019s barrel is 22 inches. The long-action calibers have 24-inch barrels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-17.jpeg\" alt=\"The 110 HC's fluted bolt. \" class=\"wp-image-144038\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The 110 HC&#8217;s fluted bolt. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The bolt, too, has been fluted. This cuts some weight, of course, but also increases the surface area on both. On the barrel, this helps in heat dispersion. And it looks good, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other elements of the 110 HC are increasingly common in the 110 line. The muzzle is threaded. This one is in .308 and is simply capped, but the long-action versions come with a muzzle brake. The .308\u2019s barrel has a 1 in 10\u201d right hand twist. With the threading, this is an ideal platform to silence, though you could put a brake on it, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>The receiver itself is stainless, though you wouldn\u2019t know it under the PVD coating. The barrel, too, is stainless. The HC has a factory blueprinted action and a floating bolt head. Both contribute greatly to the gun\u2019s inherent accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-16.jpeg\" alt=\"The 110's box mag fits flush and works well. It is a classic design that never fails. \" class=\"wp-image-144037\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The 110&#8217;s box mag fits flush and works well. It is a classic design that never fails. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Like most of the 110s, this one feeds from a flush-fit detachable box magazine. These are reliable mags. I\u2019ve never had feeding issues with any of them, though capacity is meager. That\u2019s hardly a concern with a rifle known for one-shot-stops, but I\u2019ve grown accustomed to the ACIS mags in .308.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fans of Savage will already be familiar with the other standard design elements. A couple of them require a bit of clarification. The camo stock on the 110 HC is user-adjustable. This is the AccuFit system and it lets you add to length-of-pull and cheek riser height. AccuFit makes these 110s really adaptable. You can pick anything between 12.75 and 13.75 inches of LOP. While that doesn\u2019t seem like a lot, it can make a big difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-13.jpeg\" alt=\"The stock also has some extra grip texture added which helps on those cold, wet mornings. \" class=\"wp-image-144034\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The stock also has some extra grip texture added which helps on those cold, wet mornings. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another solid feature is AccuFit. That\u2019s Savage\u2019s name for their bedding process. Inside the stock, along the whole length of the action, is an aluminum bed that keeps everything true. The combination of AccuFit and AccuStock makes the 110 stock one of the best factory stocks on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-14.jpeg\" alt=\"The user-adjustable AccuTrigger let's you set the pull weight. \" class=\"wp-image-144035\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The user-adjustable AccuTrigger let&#8217;s you set the pull weight. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The other feature is AccuTrigger. Like other aspects of the set-up, the trigger can be adjusted to meet a range of needs. For those who stalk hunt and carry their rifles through the brush, higher weights may make sense. The top end of AccuTrigger comes in at 4.5 pounds. The bottom end, for those who like a light trigger, is just 2.5 pounds. The pull itself is crisp. The trigger bar in the trigger shoe moves fluidly and the break is clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-carrying-the-high-country\">Carrying the High Country<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of the premise of this rifle is that the weight reduction makes it easier to carry, especially in high country. Empty, and naked, the 110 HC comes in at 8.1 pounds. That\u2019s lighter than most of the other .308 110s. The 110 Ultralite shaves another two pounds off with its carbon fiber-wrapped barrel and even more aggressive weight reduction, but 8.1 pounds is a manageable weight. With a scope on top and a full magazine and a sling, it will still come in under 10 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-1.jpeg\" alt=\"The 110 High Country is lighter than some .308s, but will still settle in around 9 pounds with glass.\" class=\"wp-image-144025\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The 110 High Country is lighter than some .308s, but will still settle in around 9 pounds with glass.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-shooting-the-110-hc\">Shooting the 110 HC<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As I get older, I tend to grouse more about the weight of rifles I have to carry any distance. But I never complain about the weight when I\u2019m shooting it. .308 doesn\u2019t produce punishing recoil, even in lighter rifles. The rubber buttpad on the buttstock eats up a bit of the bite, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The gun comes in the typical caliber selections: .243, .270, .280 Ackley Improved, .30-06, .300 Win Mag, .300 WSM, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/search?keyword=7mm%20rem%20mag\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-savages-backcountry-xtreme-series-the-110-high-country\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\">7mm Rem Mag<\/a>, and 7mm-08 Rem. I grew up shooting .30-06, and I live in the sticks\u2014where .30-06 is still one of the most popular calibers. But this is a review gun. .308 has its advantages, too. There\u2019s a ton of available ammo, even now. There may be a wider selection in .308 than in any of the other .30 caliber chamberings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-200-Yard-Target.jpeg\" alt=\"At 200 yards, I am able to keep 5 rounds in a decent group. \" class=\"wp-image-144043\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">At 200 yards, I am able to keep 5 rounds in a decent group. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I ran a handful of brands through the High Country before I settled on Norma\u2019s Bondstrike. As it is whitetail season, I wanted something with dependable accuracy and good expansion, and Bonstrike is designed to expand reliably and stay intact, even at close distances. I\u2019ve not had a chance to test this on a whitetail yet, but there\u2019s still a couple of weeks left in the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 110 High Country is drilled and tapped. Check your 110\u2019s design before investing in bases. There are a couple of versions. This one has two rounded mount surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I topped the High Country with a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.leupold.com\/vx-3i-65-20x50-side-focus-cds-target-fine-duplex-riflescope\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-savages-backcountry-xtreme-series-the-110-high-country\" title=\"Savage's Backcountry Xtreme Series: The 110 High Country\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.leupold.com\/vx-3i-65-20x50-side-focus-cds-target-fine-duplex-riflescope\" target=\"_blank\">Leupold VX-3i 6.5-20x50mm<\/a> Side Focus CDS Target, Leupold rings and Leupold bases. The VX-31 is a beast of a scope, and one that would allow me to stretch out the 110 way past any of the available distances in the western Arkansas woods where I hunt. For a solid baseline, I zeroed the scope at 100 yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Savage-110-High-Country-21.jpeg\" alt=\"Glassing down range through the Leupold.

The new guns of the Backcountry Xtreme Series takes that design to another level.
