Savage took its proven 110 action and wrapped it in gear built for ugly weather. The Trail Hunter Lite V2 wears a full Hogue Overmolded stock, the same rubberized coating Hogue is known for, so the rifle stays planted in your hands when it is raining sideways or your gloves are soaked. The barreled action gets a Tungsten Cerakote finish that shrugs off moisture and trail abuse a lot better than plain blued steel. This version is chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, which makes it a fun, cheap-to-feed bolt gun that pulls double duty on coyotes, varmints, and even whitetail with the right heavy bullet.
The 20 inch heavy sporter barrel is straight fluted to trim weight and help it cool between strings, and the muzzle comes threaded from the factory so adding a suppressor or brake is a five minute job. A fast twist rate lets this 5.56 stabilize the heavier .224 bullets that have turned centerfire 22s into legitimate short-range deer cartridges. You also get Savage's user-adjustable AccuTrigger, which breaks clean and can be tuned down light without a trip to the gunsmith. The three position tang safety sits right under your thumb and lets you cycle the bolt with the safety engaged.
The receiver comes drilled and tapped with two-piece Weaver style bases already in place, so you can bolt on rings and a scope the day it comes home. A flush-fitting detachable box magazine holds four rounds, and two sling swivel studs are molded in for a sling or bipod.
At 6.9 pounds bare, this is not an ultralight mountain rifle, and that is fine. The modest heft soaks up what little recoil 5.56 produces and makes it an easy gun to shoot well, whether you are teaching a new hunter or calling coyotes all winter. It is a working rifle, plain and simple, and it is built to stay out in the field where it belongs.
Yes. A rifle chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO will safely handle both 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington ammunition. The reverse is not always true, but with this chamber you have the flexibility to run whichever load your rifle groups best with.
It is. The 20 inch fluted heavy sporter barrel comes threaded from the factory, so you can spin on a suppressor or muzzle brake without any gunsmithing. The fast twist in this 5.56 chambering also stabilizes the heavier subsonic-friendly and long-range .224 bullets well.
No irons or optic are included, but Savage ships it ready for glass. The receiver is drilled and tapped and comes with two-piece Weaver style bases already installed, so all you need are rings and a scope to get it hunt ready.
With the right bullet, it can get the job done at reasonable ranges. The fast twist barrel stabilizes heavy controlled-expansion bullets in the 62 to 80 grain range that are designed for deer-sized game. It really shines as a predator and varmint rig that can pull deer duty when shots are kept modest and bullet choice is dialed in.
