They're reliable, and they're accurate.  To me that makes them good.   Others will indoubtedly chime in abou the "intangibles" that someone makes them not got.  If you want a game getter though, it's a fine rifle.

I have 110 E chambered in .243 WIN. It is all stock and shoots great.
    With the hand loads I make it shoots consistant 1/2 to 3/4 inch groups.
    I have killed countless deer with this rifle. I would recomend a 110 E
    to enyone.

Dad gave me a 110E in .22-250 a number of years ago.  It would shoot groups I could completely cover with a dime at 100 yards.  

My daughter called it "ugly", which was a pretty fair assessment.  Sold it after I managed to shoot the barrel out.  

I'd recommend them to someone who is more interested in shooting than looking good.

Well DIVR, I would call my 110E LA a lot more than ok, it is replacing my other firearms as my primary "in the woods" rig. Even with the package scope that came with it, the rifle is a superb shooter at the range as well and I'd like to get a second 110E when finances permit.

110E

I had a 110E in .270 Win. This was my first high powered rifle. I bought it used and hunted with it for 10 years. I loved it, it shot 150 grain corelokts in an 1" circle at 100 yards. I harvested at least a dozen deer with it. I sold it last summer because the stock was warping and causing accuracy to suffer a little bit. I put the proceeds toward a Tikka t3 in .30-06 which I also love but still miss my old 110 (should have restocked it like my buddy did.)

I have a M110E in 243 and it's a tackdriver with 100gr. handloads.  Killed most of my deer with it and have really enjoyed hunting/shooting with it.  Very accurate and reliable tool.

I have a 110 E in 7 Rem mag and it will put about any factory load in to a  inch or inch and a quarter. Hand loads into three quarters to one inch. It not a looker but it brings the biggest smile to my face every time I look at it.
