For the most part, the bbl. They're under different series, the 110 is a Tactical rifle, under their law enforcement series, and the 111 is one of their typical hunting rifles. Truth be told, there probably isn't any difference other than the weight, however, the 110's are under $500, so there's an upper hand for each of them....the 111 is lighter and would make an easier stalking rifle or long portage rifle, while the 110 is cheap enough that you can afford the heavy bbl version to take into the stand. I've got a 110FP in .308, and a 12FVSS in .22-250, both are extremely accurate heavy bbled rifles, and neither of them cost me over $500 for the base gun. I got the action slicked, target blocks, target scopes, and glass bedding done for cheaper than the competitors heavy bbl rifles would be for just the "stock" rifle.

um..... not an expert here but I think you will find the difference is that a 110 is a wood stock and a 111 is a synthetic stock, you have to then look at the letters beyond the number to determine whether its a law enforcement,safari,varmit etc. I have 2 model 110's and they are nothing more than plain wood stock hunting rifles.
The 110 I've got is a synth heavy bbl rifle, a buddy of mine ordered a 111 the day I bought mine, it was synth stand. bbl, both blued. I haven't looked at their website, but it seems strange that they'd produce rifles of totally different makes under the same model name simultaneously, especially since they've got 100model lines anyway?
SO...aparently, the 111is an upgrade on the standard 110, with a synth stock instead of wood, while the 110 is an upgrade on the standard 111 with a heavy bbl instead of a standard.
Like I said before, there's likely very little difference regardless, and knowing savages, I'll bet that there really isn't a LOT of difference in their accuracy within typical hunting ranges.

Every 110 that I ever owned was a typical sporter weight rifle.Every one also would kick the crap out of you also regardless of caliber.243,.270( Was The worst ).Even the .243 would jolt you pretty good.I think it had something to do with the "Rake" and "Comb" of the stock on them.JMHO and sore shoulder.

My Savage 110 7mm kicked so friggin' hard, I prayed each year prior to sighting in that I wouldn't have to shoot a box of shells to get it sighted in. Kicked harder than my buddies Winnie .338. The accurracy was also really affected by bore fouling, I had to run a rod through the bore after the second shot to maintain accurracy. It got worse as more rounds were shot through it. I now own a Tikka 7mm which is a joy to shoot.
I noticed that recoil can be a bit harsh on a Savage. I had a 300 Win Mag that was terrible until I stripped off the factory synthetic stock and put on a laminate from Richard's Microfit. Never had any problems with recoil on the 243 Win or 22-250 Rem though.
