Description
Western hunting has a way of exposing a rifle's weak points. Long climbs, wet weather, and shots that stretch well past where most deer rifles feel comfortable. The Savage 110 High Country in 6.5 PRC was put together with exactly that in mind. The 24 inch medium-contour stainless barrel gives the PRC cartridge room to build velocity, the spiral fluting on both barrel and bolt trims weight and sheds heat, and the 1:8 twist stabilizes the long, heavy 6.5mm bullets this cartridge was designed around. The muzzle comes threaded 5/8×24, so adding a brake or suppressor is a five minute job.
A High Country Stock That Fits You, Not the Other Way Around
The TrueTimber Strata synthetic stock houses Savage's AccuStock internal chassis, which beds the action three-dimensionally along its full length for consistent accuracy shot after shot. The AccuFit system lets you swap comb risers and length-of-pull inserts until the rifle mounts naturally and your eye lands right behind the scope. That matters more than people think, especially when you are shooting from awkward field positions with a heavy coat on. Overmolded grip surfaces keep things secure when the weather turns.
Trigger, Finish, and the Details That Count
The user-adjustable AccuTrigger breaks clean and lets you dial the pull weight down to your comfort level without a trip to a gunsmith. The Midnight Bronze Cerakote over the barrel and receiver fights corrosion and glare, which is a real benefit when you are hunting above treeline in mixed snow and rain. A three-position safety lets you cycle the bolt with the safety engaged, and the receiver comes drilled and tapped for your choice of bases.
Why the 110 High Country in 6.5 PRC Makes Sense
The 6.5 PRC runs a solid step faster than the 6.5 Creedmoor, carrying energy and staying supersonic well past typical hunting distances while keeping recoil manageable. At around 8.5 pounds with a detachable box magazine, this is a legitimate elk, mule deer, and antelope rig that will not beat you up at the bench. It is a lot of well-thought-out rifle for the mountain hunter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Savage 110 High Country in 6.5 PRC shoot 6.5 Creedmoor ammo?
No. Even though both cartridges use the same 6.5mm bullets, the 6.5 PRC is built on a larger, longer case and the two are not interchangeable. Only feed this rifle ammunition marked 6.5 PRC. The upside is the PRC runs noticeably faster than the Creedmoor, which pays off at longer hunting distances.
Does the 110 High Country come with a scope or sights?
No, it ships without sights or optics. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so you just need bases or a rail and rings to mount the scope of your choice. Given what the 6.5 PRC is capable of, it deserves quality glass with solid turrets.
Is the barrel on the Savage 110 High Country threaded for a suppressor or brake?
Yes, the 24 inch spiral-fluted stainless barrel is threaded 5/8×24 at the muzzle, which is the standard pattern for most 30 caliber and smaller suppressors and muzzle brakes. A brake is a popular addition on this rifle since it takes the edge off the PRC's recoil at the bench.
How does the AccuFit system work on this rifle?
AccuFit uses interchangeable comb risers and length-of-pull inserts that swap in and out of the TrueTimber Strata stock with basic tools. You adjust cheek height until your eye centers naturally behind the scope and set the length of pull to match your build. It gets you a custom-fit feel without paying for custom stock work.
