Description
Anyone who has hauled a heavy rifle up a ridge knows the appeal of shaving pounds, and that's exactly what Savage did with the 110 Lightweight Storm. At just 5.8 pounds bare, this .270 Winchester carries like a dream whether you're still-hunting timber or covering miles of open country. Savage trimmed the weight the right way too, with a skeletonized receiver, a spiral fluted bolt, and a 20 inch lightweight contour barrel instead of cutting corners on the parts that matter.
Built on the Proven Savage 110 Action
The 110 platform has been putting meat in freezers for decades, and this Lightweight Storm version keeps everything that made it a favorite. The stainless steel barreled action shrugs off rain, snow, and sweaty pack straps, so a week of ugly weather won't leave you scrubbing rust spots. The user adjustable AccuTrigger lets you dial in a crisp, light pull without a trip to the gunsmith, and the detachable box magazine holds four rounds of .270 with one more in the chamber. A three position tang safety sits right under your thumb where it belongs.
A Lightweight Storm That Fits You
One of the smarter touches on this rifle is the adjustable length of pull, which moves from 12.75 to 13.75 inches. That means it fits a smaller framed hunter, a tall guy in a t-shirt, or anyone layered up in a heavy November coat. The black synthetic sporter stock is rigid, weatherproof, and doesn't care if it gets banged around in the truck.
Why the .270 Win Version Makes Sense
The .270 Winchester has been dropping deer, antelope, and elk for nearly a century, and ammo is on the shelf at just about every store that sells cartridges. Paired with the 1:10 twist barrel, it handles the classic 130 and 150 grain loads that made this cartridge famous. If you want one do-it-all hunting rifle that won't wear you out on the walk in, this setup is hard to argue with.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the Savage 110 Lightweight Storm actually weigh?
Savage lists this .270 Win model at 5.8 pounds bare, which is seriously light for a full power hunting rifle. Add a compact scope and rings and you're still well under 7 pounds. That makes a real difference when you're carrying it all day in steep country.
Does the 110 Lightweight Storm come with sights or a scope?
No, this rifle ships without iron sights, so plan on mounting an optic. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Savage 110 pattern bases, which are easy to find just about anywhere. A lightweight 3-9x or 2-10x scope pairs nicely with the rifle's trim weight.
Will the shorter 20 inch barrel hurt .270 Win performance?
You'll give up a bit of velocity compared to a traditional 22 or 24 inch tube, typically somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 to 100 fps depending on the load. For deer and elk at normal hunting distances, that difference is negligible. What you gain is a rifle that's noticeably quicker handling in brush, blinds, and tight timber.
Can I adjust the trigger and stock fit on this Savage 110?
Yes on both counts. The AccuTrigger is user adjustable, so you can set the pull weight to your liking with the included tool and no gunsmith visit. The stock also has an adjustable length of pull from 12.75 to 13.75 inches, letting you fit the rifle to your build or your winter layers.
