    Where is the safety on this model, the tang?

    The only ones I have seen have been rebarreled

    I'm sorry I can't answer that, but it's a good question.
    My guess is they didn't.
    The .280 might have been not quite "mainstream" enough to warrant the tooling required.

    I have one in 7x57 (original barrel with Savage markings). That would be much less mainstream than .280. I also have a Marlin MR7 in .280. That rifle itself is out of the mainstream; let alone the chambering.

    I have a catalog around here somewhere that Savage sent me. If I can find it, I'll get back to you.

    I know that Savage chambered the 110 in 7 mm Remington Magnum which I believe is actually another name for a .280

    Nope, 280 Rem also known as 7mm Express Remington, 7mm Rem Mag is belted magnum.

    One of my favorite purchases in the last year or so, is a Savage 110 in .270. A .270 caliber specific 3-12X40 BDC scope was added (Cabela's made for them by Nikon.) along with some custom work to get it to fit the Leupold Steel rings that came with the gun. (The scope adjustment ring would not clear the rear scope mount base.)


    I love this gun.


    Have it out now, enjoying it.

    I see at least four different current Savage model 110's chambered for the .280 Ackley Improved but no plain .280 Remington.

    The Ackley improved .280 should be an interesting cartridge. Since it is an "improved" cartridge, you can shoot regular .280 (or 7 express) cartridges in it.
