What are the design differences between the Savage 110 and 111?

[Jamis]

I was recently asked this question and discovered that I had no idea. I know that the newer rifles are 111's, but I don't know what design changes were made.

When you find out, let me know. I just got a 111 and have been wondering the same thing.

SK,

I just found out. They are the SAME! Savage told me that they still call the wood stocked gun the 110 even though they call all the laminated or synthetic stocked guns 111 (except for stainless which is 116 and heavy barrels which are 112. I was told the synthetic stocked 110 you see at WalMart is a special made gun for them. It's the same gun as the synthetic 111, but the stock is just cosmeticlly different.

Cool.
