which model are you looking at? Synthetic or wood? you should be good either way. If you get a synthetic, you can always get a better stock from the after market for around a hundred bucks. It should be a dang good gun.

If you like it and it fits, you don't need us to tell what to buy. The Savage 110 has been around for a long time and is proven. They do have an excellent reputation for accuracy.

Hi squirrelsniper, the Savage 110 LH was the first rifle I bought almost 40 yrs a go... in 30.06, is not a fancy rifle but is a very good rifle, simple and very accurate. I modified the stock to give it some panache... installed rosewood tip and grip cap, reshape the forehand and grip to my like, and converted from a detachable magazine to hinged floor plate magazine only because twice the magazine fall out, probably my fault but I did not want to chance to loose it in the woods so I made the conversion. All this to say go for is one excellent rifle.
It got me my first moose on my first moose hunt.
7mm mag is a good cartridge and certenly will perform as well in the 110 model. I like the 7mm mag, that was the second rifle I got, Parker Hale safari .

I picked up a mint used Savage 110 in 7mm Magnum with a walnut stock for $200.00. It shoots like house afire. You might want to check out the used gun racks because there are a lot of real bargains waiting for a new home. All the best...

I have a Stevens 200. The barrel and trigger are pure (pre-accutrigger) Savage 110. It is a matte finish 110 with a cheap gray plastic stock. I honed the sear a bit and got it set safely at just a hair under 3 lbs. It kicks like crap (.30-06), but drives tacks. $199 it cost. It is a lot of a gun for that money. I will probably buy an aftermarket stock someday. I wish I had bought 5 of them back when they were that price!
