Savage model 110 vs. 111
Can someone please fill me in on what differences there are between the Savage model 110 and 111? I know from their website that the 110 comes with a walnut stock and the 111 synthetic but is that the only difference? Savage Arms doesn't seem to be too interested in taking calls or e-mail.
What I am looking for is a reasonably priced heavy barrel 30.06. Any suggestions? I am intenting this for all around use - target, plinking, and maybe some hunting. I don't really know what to expect for price or whether I should be looking new (preferred) or used but my budget would be in the $500 - $800 range.
Thanks for your help.

You can get a Savage for under 500 bucks. With a heavy barrel around 550
The truth shall set you free.
They can have my guns when they pry them from my cold dead hands
I can not wait until NJ sinks in the ocean and PA has ocean front property

Re: Savage model 110 vs. 111
The 110 and 111 are the same with exception of the stock type. They are sporter barrels unless you get the 110fp, which is the police/tactical version and are heavy-barrel and matte black finish. You will probably find a heavy barrel easier in a .308(it would be a 10fp, not a 110fp). You can also look at the model 12 series. It is their varmint series and are all heavy-barrel guns. Very accurate out of the box!!!
If you really want a savage and have any questions check out www.savageshooters.com. I'm a regular member there and if you need info that is the place to find it.
Hope this helps,

Re: Savage model 110 vs. 111
Thanks for the information. I was hoping to stay with 30.06 simply because I already have an M-1 Garand in that caliber. Looking at the Savage on line manual, I see that the 110fp is offered in 25.06 and 300WSM, both long action. There is also a model 112 in the varmint series with 25.06 and 300 Win Mag chambers. So, they obviously have a 30 cal heavy barrel and have chambered for the longer 25.06 case so I was hoping there would logically be a heavy barrel chamberd for 30.06 and I just couldn't see it.
I have a model 12 in .223 and I like it a lot. One reason I started looking at Savage for my next gun purchase.
Thanks again for your help. I'll check out the savageshooters link.
