“model 110”

If there were ever a classic rifle design—one that would go on to spawn innumerable copies—it is the Mauser 98. While the vast majority of American hunters rely upon the multitude of popular American bolt-action rifles, they owe a huge debt of gratitude to Paul Mauser’s turnbolt design.

Savage Arms has introduced the newest member of the Model 110 bolt action rifle family, the 110 Carbon Predator. Built to withstand the elements and perform when it matters, this rifle features everything needed to pursue predators far into the field.

Released in 1980, the 7mm-08 Remington would go on to be considered one of the best deer cartridges ever conceived, and the gamut of 7mm bullets available make it extremely flexible.

The Turkish-made Viper G2 Camo offers great value in a dedicated turkey autoloader. It fits well, carries easy, and is wonderfully effective.

Turkey hunters looking for a reliable red dot for their turkey gun need look no further than the DeltaPoint Pro. It is compact, lightweight and features a wide field of view, motion sensor technology to conserve battery and multiple brightness settings.

Savage Arms has teamed up with Magpul to pair a premium aftermarket stock with the Savage’s proven 110 action. The combination mates the company’s reputation for accuracy with Magpul’s renowned versatility to create a Model 110 that’s ideal for any hunter.

Younger hunters seem to be more apt to embrace the ‘dial’ method, while those with a bit more snow on the roof are skeptical of the moving parts. Here’s a closer look at compensating for trajectory in the modern era.

While there are many great predator cartridges to choose from, these practical choices rise to the top.

Each shooter’s recoil tolerance level is different, and some people appreciate flexibility over specific application, but these five cartridges will cleanly take any dangerous-game animal on earth.
