Savage 110 in 30.06

ni hao
I have been looking at these rifles at WalMart. They have them with a Simmons 3x9x40 scope, accutrigger and floating barrel for $384. I see many here on GB'er for much more money without a scope. I know the Simmons scope is not very good, but what are the other differences in the rifles? What are your opinions on the WalMart rifles as far as plinking and sometimes deer hunting? Thanks.

    black plastic stock and slim tappered barrel without any sights?


    It'd make a solid hunting gun, and thats a good price.. Maybe pick a better scope for it from Burris or leupold and your set.

    Good solid basic, accurate, reliable gun. Get a better scope! Burris Bullistic Plex Fullfield II.

    I bought mine used on gunbroker for $200+ shipping and ffl fee, last month. It was synthetic and someone had tried to paint the stock camo on it. I removed the paint and put a burris fullfield 3-9x40 scope on it. I sighted it in at 100 yards with some old reloads for a Rem 700 I had. It shoot right at an inch and a quarter. I am currently load testing it and have already (first set of loads H414) found a load with 165 gr. hornady btsp that shoots .944 group. I am increasing that load, as that was about the middle of the road and the group SHOULD tighten up a little bit more. Look on the auction side and you will find a good deal. Look for one that might take a little work and you will get a good deal. NOBODY wants to take a camo paint job off a gun, but it really isn't that hard and it will save you a good chunk of change.

    Currently wholesale on these is higher than that. But remember you're buying a Walmart grade rifle. Does it have the Accu-trigger? If not it's a $300 gun.

    A Wal-Mart grade rifle or shotgun is usually produced on the cheaper side. It may have a cheap grade stock on it, pressed or no checkering, cheaper made parts, etc, anything to get it produced in the price range that Wal-mart wants to sell it in. It may shoot just as good as a higher priced gun but not look as good or hold value as good.
