Description
The Savage 110 Magpul Scout 6mm ARC 16.5in FDE is a full-size bolt-action rifle built for hunters who need quick target acquisition and reliable performance in the field. Chambered in the flat-shooting 6mm ARC, this rifle pairs a 16.50-inch threaded button-rifled barrel with a Magpul Hunter synthetic stock in Flat Dark Earth and a full-length scout-style Picatinny rail for low-profile optics. It feeds from AICS-style detachable box magazines and includes Savage’s user-adjustable AccuTrigger and a 3-position tang safety.

Key Features
- 16.50-inch Threaded Barrel (5/8×24) — Why it matters: The shorter barrel keeps the rifle handy in tight brush or a box blind, and the threaded muzzle lets you mount a suppressor or brake without a gunsmith.
- Magpul Hunter Stock in FDE — Why it matters: This stock gives you a solid, weather-resistant platform with an adjustable comb and LOP, so you get a proper cheek weld even with a scout scope mounted.
- Full-Length Scout Picatinny Rail — Why it matters: You can mount a long-eye-relief scope forward of the action for fast target acquisition, or use the rail for a red dot or backup irons.
- User-Adjustable AccuTrigger — Why it matters: Dial in pull weight from 2.5 to 6 pounds without a trip to the smith — a clean, crisp break means tighter groups at the range or in the field.
- AICS-Style 10-Round Detachable Magazine — Why it matters: Reloads are fast and positive, and the 10-round capacity gives you plenty of ammo for coyotes, hogs, or target strings without constant topping off.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who wants a compact, fast-handling bolt gun for walking the ridges or calling predators. It’s also a solid choice for the shooter who wants to stretch the legs of 6mm ARC out to 600 yards on steel or prairie dogs. If you prefer a traditional scope over a scout setup, the rail accepts rings too — just watch eye relief.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: AccuTrigger is one of the best factory triggers out of the box — adjust it to your preference without extra cost.
- Pro: 6mm ARC offers low recoil and excellent ballistic coefficient, making it a great all-around cartridge for varmints to medium game.
- Pro: Magpul stock is tough and lightweight, with sling swivel studs already installed.
- Con: The scout rail limits scope mounting options — you’ll need a long-eye-relief scope or a red dot, which may not suit every shooter’s preference.

According to Savage Arms specs, the 110 Magpul Scout’s button-rifled barrel delivers sub-MOA accuracy with match ammo. That said, the 6mm ARC cartridge is still relatively new — finding factory ammo locally can be hit or miss, so plan to order online or reload.
FAQ
What is the barrel twist rate on the Savage 110 Magpul Scout 6mm ARC?
The barrel has a 1:7.5 twist rate, which stabilizes the heavier 105-108 grain bullets that the 6mm ARC was designed for.
Can I mount a traditional scope on this rifle?
Yes, but you’ll need to use the scout rail or a set of rings that attach directly to the rail. A standard long-eye-relief scope (like a 2-7×32 with extended eye relief) works best. If you want a traditional scope position, you may need a different rail or a gunsmith adapter.
Is the 6mm ARC good for deer hunting?
Yes, with proper bullet selection. The 6mm ARC can take deer-sized game out to 300 yards with a well-constructed bullet. It’s especially effective on hogs and coyotes due to its flat trajectory and low recoil.
What magazines does the 110 Magpul Scout use?
It uses AICS-style detachable box magazines. The rifle comes with a 10-round magazine, but 5-round options are available for states with capacity limits.
