Sauer has been building rifles in Germany longer than the United States has been a country, and the 100 Classic XT is where all that experience gets distilled into a working rifle you won't feel bad dragging through a muddy November. The heart of it is a cold hammer-forged 22 inch barrel, made the same way Sauer builds barrels for rifles costing several times as much. Owners consistently report tight sub-MOA groups once they find a load the rifle likes, and plenty of folks who own shelves full of bolt guns will tell you this one hangs with rifles well above its class.
The trigger is a genuine standout. It's a single-stage design with a wide, comfortable shoe, and it adjusts from roughly 2.2 to 4.2 pounds so you can dial it to your preference. The three-lug bolt runs smooth and fast, the three-position safety lets you cycle the action with the safety engaged, and the Ever Rest bedding block anchors the action in the stock for consistent shot-to-shot performance. The Ergo Max synthetic stock borrows its geometry from Sauer's premium S 101 and S 404 rifles, with a soft-touch coating and a neutral cast that fits right and left handed hunters equally well.
Chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, this rifle is set up for exactly what the cartridge does best: mild recoil, a flat trajectory, and plenty of punch for deer, antelope, and hogs out to distances most of us have no business stretching past. The flush-fitting detachable magazine holds five rounds, the receiver is drilled and tapped for scope bases, and at 6.7 pounds bare the whole package carries easily with glass on top. For a first serious hunting rifle or a no-drama addition to an experienced hunter's safe, the Sauer 100 Classic XT is one of the easiest recommendations in the case.
Yes, and it has built a reputation for it. The cold hammer-forged barrel, Ever Rest action bedding, and crisp adjustable trigger add up to a rifle that regularly prints sub-MOA groups with ammo it likes. Owners frequently report groups under an inch at 100 yards, which is more than enough precision for hunting and steel work well past 500 yards.
No sights or mounts are included on this model. The receiver is drilled and tapped, and it accepts Remington 700 pattern bases, which makes finding rings and rails easy and affordable. Plan on adding a base and rings along with your scope of choice.
It uses the same detachable box magazines as the Sauer 101 series. The included magazine sits flush with the stock and holds five rounds of 6.5 Creedmoor. Spares are available through Sauer dealers if you want an extra in your pack.
It is. The single-stage trigger adjusts from roughly 2.2 to 4.2 pounds, so you can run it light for precision work or a bit heavier for cold-weather hunting with gloves. The wide trigger shoe is a nice touch that gives it a very controlled, deliberate feel.
