Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Vortex Crossfire II scope truly ready to hunt when it arrives?
Yes — the 3-9x40mm Vortex Crossfire II scope comes factory-mounted on a one-piece EGW 0 MOA rail and is bore-sighted before shipping. While we always recommend confirming your zero at the range with live ammunition before heading afield, bore-sighting means you'll be on paper quickly and should only require minor adjustments to reach a confirmed zero.
Is .243 Winchester a good caliber for deer hunting and varmints?
Absolutely. The .243 Winchester is a highly versatile round with a flat trajectory and manageable recoil, making it effective on varmints like coyotes and prairie dogs as well as deer-sized game at moderate to extended ranges. It's a favorite among youth hunters and recoil-sensitive shooters, and the 22-inch barrel on the 110 Apex Hunter XP helps maximize the cartridge's velocity potential.
Can the length-of-pull be adjusted without special tools?
Yes. The Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP features a user-adjustable length-of-pull that can be changed without gunsmithing, allowing the rifle to be quickly fitted to different-sized shooters. This makes it especially practical for families sharing a rifle or for young hunters who will grow into the firearm over time.
