Key Features
- Adjustable Length of Pull (LOP) Stock — The Flat Dark Gray synthetic stock adjusts from 12.5 to 14.25 inches, allowing you to dial in proper eye relief and cheek weld for magnum recoil management. Why it matters: consistent cheek weld directly translates to repeatable shot placement, especially under heavy recoil from a .375 Ruger.
- 20″ Heavy Barrel, Left-Hand Action — The 20-inch heavy contour barrel reduces muzzle rise and maintains stiffness for sustained fire strings. Why it matters: a shorter, heavier barrel keeps harmonics tight and velocity variation low, critical when your target is 300+ yards away.
- 5+1 Round Capacity in .375 Ruger — The detachable box magazine holds five rounds plus one in the chamber. Why it matters: .375 Ruger delivers .375 H&H energy in a shorter action, and the box magazine allows fast reloads without fumbling with internal box magazines.
- AccuTrigger with Adjustable Pull Weight — Savage’s AccuTrigger lets you set pull weight from 2.5 to 6 pounds without tools. Why it matters: a crisp, predictable trigger break eliminates shooter-induced flinch, especially important when managing magnum recoil.
- Left-Hand Configuration — The bolt handle, ejection port, and safety are mirrored for left-handed shooters. Why it matters: left-handed shooters lose no speed or control — this rifle cycles naturally without breaking cheek weld.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the left-handed precision shooter who wants a production-grade magnum platform without paying custom gunsmith prices. It suits hunters chasing elk, moose, or African plains game at medium to long range, as well as range shooters who appreciate the .375 Ruger’s flat trajectory out to 400 yards. If you’re a lefty who has been forced to shoot right-handed rifles, this model eliminates the compromise.
Pros / Cons
- Pro: Sub-MOA guarantee from a factory barrel — Savage backs it with a 1-MOA accuracy guarantee, and most examples shoot 0.75 MOA with handloads.
- Pro: Adjustable LOP stock accommodates body armor or heavy winter clothing without losing eye relief.
- Con: The synthetic stock lacks the rigidity of a chassis system — shooters pushing beyond 600 yards may notice fore-end flex under bipod pressure.
- Con: Recoil is stout even with the heavy barrel — expect 30-40 ft-lbs of free recoil energy, so a muzzle brake or suppressor is recommended for extended range sessions.

FAQ
Does the Savage 110 Ridge Hunter .375 Ruger accept a muzzle brake?
Yes, the barrel is threaded 5/8-24. A quality muzzle brake like the Precision Armament M4-72 will reduce felt recoil by 40-50%, making the .375 Ruger manageable for extended shooting.
What is the effective range of the .375 Ruger in this rifle?
With standard 270-grain loads, the .375 Ruger stays supersonic past 1,200 yards. Practical accuracy for hunting is 400-500 yards; precision target work holds sub-MOA groups to 300 yards with factory ammunition.
Is the stock adjustable for comb height?
No, the stock adjusts for length of pull only. Comb height is fixed. For high-magnification scopes, consider an adjustable cheek riser kit or aftermarket stock.
Can I use .375 Ruger ammunition in a .375 H&H rifle?
No. .375 Ruger and .375 H&H are different cartridges — different case length, headspace, and pressure. Do not attempt to interchange them. This rifle is chambered exclusively for .375 Ruger SAAMI spec ammunition.
