Chad, yes Sir, this UPC code includes a 23" Fluted Satin Stainless Barrel with 1:10" twist and Adjustable muzzle brake.

Can the muzzle brake be replaced? Do you know what the the size is for muzzle?

Chad, This model has a fixed muzzle brake. Unless you have the skill, confidence and tools, I would enlist a competent gunsmith to replace this fixed muzzle device. The TP is 5/8 x 24 If you want to remove and replace device yourself.

Chad, the 23" medium-contour fluted barrel features Savage's patented on / off muzzle brake. You can turn the brake on and off by rotating it. That means you can open the ports on the rifle while shooting on the range, then turn off the brake by closing the ports while hunting. I believe the muzzle brake to be permanently attached but, would confirm this with Savage Customer Service at (413) 568-7001 or (800) 370-0708 ---- Monday through Friday 8:00AM – 5:00PM EST

It says single shot but one the answers say 3 does anyone know for sure

Scott, this UPC code rifle is a 3 + 1 or 4rd Total. It has a 3 round Hinged Floorplate Magazine.

It has a internal hinged floor mag with a capacity of 3 +1 in the chamber for 4 rounds total

Scott - this rifle has a three round capacity internal magazine with hinged floor plate. Total capacity is 3 + 1.

Is this really a single shot rifle as stated in the description?

Hi Kyle, the Savage 116BH listed will have a 3+1 capacity. Hope that helps. Thank you.

Any idea why the Savage 116 Bear Hunters in 338 Win mag are always $200 cheaper than the other calibers?

Hi Joe, The other calibers sell quick. It leaves the undesirable ones. Buds uses an automatic inventory price update engine that runs every 20mins. Prices are tied directly to stock levels and will change as stock numbers change. As inventory numbers go down, prices go up and vice-versa. Usually when popular items get low in stock.

Please click the green box stating it as the best answer. We are rated on our answers and are just volunteers, not Buds employees. You can choose more then one Thank you!

its not as popular which results in a larger stock at both Buds and the distributor. I expect that it will ne a Caliber that savage looks at dropping in this rifle

Hey, Joe, two things, the other calibers almost always sell quicker than the 338 and Buds is sitting on a large stock of 338's. Once their numbers go down the prices will be more inline with the other calibers.

Good service from Bud's and a good shooter. 1 moa @ 100yds. Muzzle brake reduced recoil immensely but warn other shooters on the adjacent bench!!

My Savage 116 Bear Hunter in 338 Win Mag arrived promptly and in expected good condition. After running a couple of patches with Hoppe's No. 9 through the bore and then a dry patch, and mounting a 70's vintage Redfield Widefield fixed 4x scope (It won out over a Leupold 4x12 for now) I headed for my range with 20 rounds of handloads. The rounds consisted of new Winchester cases and Winchester Large Rifle Magnum primers, and a start load of 64 grains of IMR 4350 pushing a 215 grain Sierra #2610. After removing the bolt and bore sighting I fired a few rounds at 30 yds. to get close and then moved to 200 yds. which yielded a four shot 4" group from a bench with a bi-pod. Adequate, I guess, but not impressive since my new Savage Scout Rifle in .308 with a 2 1/2x Leupold Scout Scope shooting Winchester White Box yielded 3 out of a four shot group within 3/4" at 200 yds. I know, I couldn't believe it either. With fire-formed cases, bullet seating adjusted for optimum accuracy/hunting situations, and a more favorable powder charge, I fully expect the Bear Hunter to meet or exceed what one might require for a mountain elk rifle. Probably because of the adjustable muzzle brake, the recoil seemed a little less brutal than my Winchester 70 in 300 Win Mag but with more powder and maybe a 250 grain Sierra #2600 I know it will get worse, but will most likely be manageable. I'm pleased with Bud's and, so far, pleased with my 116 Bear Hunter and would recommend either.

Great shooting rifle. Shoots 1/4" groups all day and I bet it would do better with a better marksman behind it. Barrel cools quickly, and don't fear the rap about the recoil. I shot a box in one sitting and felt nothing, took five shots with the muzzle break off. Noticed 1/2" groups with muzzle break off, but felt no difference in the kick, or should I say more of a push. Trigger was great from the box, nice and crisp, probably about 3-4 lbs. Only con I have is the price of the ammo. It shipped quick from Bud's, and who can beat free shipping and no taxes? Cabella's wanted $930 for this rifle through special order, and then you pay taxes!!
