The Savage Arms A22 Mag Target is a .22 WMR semi-auto rifle built for shooters who want serious accuracy at a rimfire price point. If you're stepping up from .22 LR or looking for a dedicated small-game and varmint rig that handles the magnum rimfire round, this straight blowback design delivers reliable, repeatable performance without the complexity of larger centerfire platforms. The wood laminate stock and clean, business-like profile make it equally at home on the bench or in the field.
At 7.08 lbs and 41.5 inches overall, the A22 Mag Target is trim enough to carry all day but substantial enough to manage recoil and maintain sight picture shot to shot. The 22-inch barrel is optimized for .22 WMR ballistics, and the 16-inch rifling twist rate stabilizes the magnum loads this rifle is designed to shoot. Savage's proprietary AccuTrigger comes standard—a genuine advantage for target work and precision shooting where trigger quality directly affects your groups.
The 10-round detachable rotary magazine feeds reliably and strips clear for cleaning, and the right-hand safety and controls are intuitive whether you're running it prone at 100 yards or transitioning between multiple targets. The high-luster black carbon steel barrel pairs with the laminate stock to create a durable, no-nonsense aesthetic that won't distract from the fundamentals.
This is a rifle that respects the .22 WMR cartridge's legitimate role in accuracy work, small-game hunting, and precision rimfire competition. If you want to develop real skill with a .22 magnum, the Savage A22 Mag Target gives you the tools to do it without overspending.

.22 WMR (Winchester Magnum Rimfire) is a more powerful rimfire cartridge than .22 LR, delivering higher velocity and energy. The A22 Mag Target is specifically built to handle magnum loads, and its 1:16 twist barrel is optimized for the heavier bullets that .22 WMR ammunition uses. This makes it better suited for small-game hunting, varmint work, and precision target shooting at distance compared to standard .22 LR rifles.
Savage's AccuTrigger is a factory trigger that provides a clean, consistent break with minimal creep—critical for accurate shooting. In a target-focused rifle like the A22 Mag, a quality trigger directly improves your ability to shoot tight groups because there's less guesswork in when the hammer will fall. It's one of the reasons this rifle is designed specifically for precision and target use.
Yes, the A22 Mag Target uses a detachable rotary magazine that holds 10 rounds and removes easily for reloading or cleaning. The rotary design ensures reliable feeding and is a design choice common to Savage rimfire rifles, providing both accuracy and ease of maintenance.
The A22 Mag Target is purpose-built for precision rimfire shooting—bench rest target work, accuracy testing, small-game and varmint hunting, and rimfire competition. The straight blowback action, AccuTrigger, and optimized barrel make it well-suited to shooters who want to refine their marksmanship or need a dependable .22 magnum for hunting applications where a more powerful cartridge isn't necessary.
