Why This Savage 110 Barrel Excels

  • 416-R stainless steel: Premium material for exceptional accuracy, corrosion resistance, and consistency—perfect for precision hunting and suppressed use.
  • 5R rifling honed & lapped: Reduces bullet deformation for tighter groups, better consistency, and broad compatibility with subsonic/heavy projectiles.
  • QPQ nitride inside & out: Enhances corrosion resistance, minimizes fouling, and extends service life in demanding field conditions.
  • Balanced practical design: 16" Medium Sporter profile provides excellent velocity, handling, and rigidity for field-ready performance at ~2.6 lbs.
  • Savage 110 compatibility: Designed for Savage 110 / Small Shank receivers with standard barrel nut installation; allows easy barrel swaps with proper headspacing.

Ideal Use Cases

  • Suppressed subsonic hunting: 16" length offers practical balance, velocity for subsonics, and quiet performance with suppressors in field conditions.
  • Precision Savage 110 8.6 BLK builds: SAAMI chamber and 1:6 twist deliver match-level accuracy and versatility with a wide range of projectiles.
  • Versatile projectile loads: 1:6 twist stabilizes heavy subsonics to lighter supers for consistent energy and accuracy in hunting scenarios.
  • Field use & hard hunting: Stainless construction + nitride finish handles varied weather, terrain, and extended sessions reliably.

Build note: Requires barrel nut for installation on Savage 110 / Small Shank receivers. Always verify headspace with proper gauges (go/no-go) and confirm muzzle-device alignment before use. Function and performance vary by ammunition and suppressor setup. Recommend qualified gunsmith for installation.

Consumer Note:
8.6 BLK is now SAAMI certified, standardizing chamber and cartridge dimensions (including headspace) for enhanced safety, consistency, and ammunition interchangeability across manufacturers.

The primary changes with SAAMI certification include formalized headspace dimensions and support for more moderate twist rates (compared to the original aggressive 1:3 design), promoting greater versatility with a wide range of projectiles—making this Savage 110 1:6 twist barrel an excellent fit for balanced precision in subsonic hunting applications.

PLEASE NOTE:

Always use SAAMI-spec compliant 8.6 BLK ammunition for best performance and safety. If you have questions, contact customerservice@faxonfirearms.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this 16" 8.6 BLK barrel fit my Savage 110?
Yes—this barrel is designed for Savage 110 / Small Shank receivers using the standard barrel nut system (1.0625"-20 TPI tenon threads). It is not a drop-in prefit. Verify compatibility with your action, properly headspace (using go/no-go gauges), and torque the barrel nut correctly upon installation (recommend qualified gunsmith; not compatible with large shank, FX7, or other patterns).
Why 416-R stainless and 5R rifling in this 8.6 BLK hunting barrel?
416-R stainless provides match-grade accuracy and corrosion resistance, while 5R rifling (honed & lapped) improves consistency and projectile performance—especially with heavy/subsonic loads ideal for hunting.
Is this barrel suppressor-ready?
Yes—the M18x1.5 muzzle (tapered shoulder; adapter included) supports direct-thread suppressors. Confirm device compatibility and alignment before use.
What benefits does QPQ nitride provide?
Salt bath nitride (QPQ) increases corrosion resistance, reduces fouling buildup, and improves wear life—ideal for field and hunting use in varied conditions.
What does SAAMI certification change for 8.6 BLK?
SAAMI certification standardizes chamber specs (including headspace) and supports moderate twist rates for broader compatibility, improving safety and ammo interchangeability industry-wide.
