Is the Savage 110 Carbon Tactical 6.5 Creedmoor 22″ Bolt Action Rifle banned in Canada? Not currently. The Savage 110 Carbon Tactical 6.5 Creedmoor 22″ Bolt Action Rifle is Non-restricted, but it scores 4/15 on the Holdover Ban-Risk Index. It is not currently eligible for compensation. Canada Gazette SOR/2026-114 says the current amnesty for prohibited firearms expires 90 days after the latest Supreme Court of Canada appeal termination by judgment, dismissal, or discontinuance.

Classification: Non-restricted · OIC/SOR: FRT · Ban-Risk: Medium · Compensation: Not currently eligible · Amnesty: SCC appeals + 90 days

Verdict

Savage 110 Carbon Tactical 6.5 Creedmoor 22″ Bolt Action Rifle is scored above the floor because variant details matter. Chassis, precision, threaded, compact, or tactical-market cues can create policy visibility even where the underlying action is not the main target. The entry stays Medium rather than High when the current listing lacks the stronger semi-auto centre-fire or named-family signals.
