When Savage Arms uses the phrase "Ultralite Elite," the company really means it. It's normal for hunting rifles to weigh in the 7-10 lb. range, depending on stock materials and barrel length. But the Savage 110 Ultralite Elite weighs in at a truly remarkable 5 lbs., 12.8 ozs unloaded. Although the heart of the Ultralite Elite--Savage's 110 action--has been around for quite some time, it's never powered a rifle this light.
How did they do it? From cutting-edge materials to thoughtful design tweaks, Savage has trimmed every single ounce possible out of this dedicated hunting rig ... and they've done it without cutting features. The rifle features a PROOF Research carbon-fiber-wrapped stainless-steel barrel with a threaded muzzle (should you wish to attach a suppressor), as well as an Omniport radial muzzle brake.
