Savage Arms Delivers Power and Precision Well Past 1,000 Yards with Rifles Chambered in 6.5 PRC

WESTFIELD, Massachusetts – Oct 23, 2019 – Fans of the short-action powerhouse 6.5 PRC have new options from Savage Arms. The high ballistic coefficient of the bullet combined with the power of the cartridge makes this an ideal pairing and these rifles deliver the 6.5 PRC’s magnum potential with Savage’s legendary accuracy.

The 6.5 Precision Rifle Cartridge (PRC) is essentially a supercharged 6.5 Creedmoor. The round has tremendous velocity, even at long ranges. While this increases accuracy at greater distances, the 6.5 PRC is much more than a target round. The increase in velocity converts to great force on impact. This combination of accuracy and power has made the 6.5 PRC a favorite of long-range hunters. 

“Some hunters are hesitant about to pull the trigger on animals at longer ranges,” said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing at Savage Arms. “Some rounds simply lose their ability to transfer sufficient energy as they slow down. Not the 6.5 PRC. Savage’s new 6.5 PRC rifles are capable of match-grade accuracy and lethal terminal ballistic performance.” 

Savage is pleased to offer multiple configurations in 6.5 PRC. The 110 Tactical rifles offer increased capacity from their box magazines. The 110 High Country features TrueTimber Strata camouflage, making it a favorite for hunters. The featherweight 110 Apex is easy to carry as it is to get on target.

Savage Arms’ Timeless Model 110 Continues to Evolve

WESTFIELD, Massachusetts – October 17, 2019 – Savage Arms is proud to announce updates to its dynamic Model 110 Series rifles. With more than 27 different models and up to 19 caliber configurations, there’s nothing the Model 110 can’t do. 

“The 110 is an American classic,” said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing for Savage, “but that doesn’t mean Savage is content with the status quo. We continue to refine the 110, and have brought some new innovations to the line that take the rifles to new heights, and distances.”

The Model 110 is a rugged bolt-action rifle built for uncompromising accuracy. From the long-range potential of 300 Win Mag to the hard-hitting .350 Legend, each configuration offers unique abilities to aspiring hunters and marksmen. 

2019 saw additions to the 110 Apex line. Each Apex rifle comes equipped with the Savage AccuTrigger™, thread-in headspacing, floating bolt head and a precision button-rifled barrel. Each comes with a 3-9x40mm Vortex Crossfire II scope already mounted and bore-sighted.  

New 110 Apex Rifles: 

·       110 Apex Hunter XP

·       110 Apex Hunter XP, Left Hand

·       110 Apex Hunter XP Muddy Girl

·       110 Apex Predator XP

·       110 Apex Storm XP

While the Apex line continues to open new territory for the 110, the iconic rifle continues to see functional and ergonomic revisions. From the intricate and adjustable walnut stock of the new 110 Classic to the 110 High Country’s TrueTimber Strata stock and PVD coating, or the mag-fed utility of the 110 Ridge Warrior, the 110 continues to evolve.
