Savage B17 Precision Lite Bolt 17HMR 18" Barrel 10-Round Rifle (Model 70856)

The Savage B17 Precision Lite is a 17 HMR bolt-action rimfire rifle built for shooters who want to ring steel at distance without compromise. This is a target-focused platform that pairs Savage's proven accuracy with modern chassis ergonomics, striking a rare balance between performance and portability. The 18-inch barrel wears a carbon fiber wrap that reduces weight and manages heat, while the custom MDT one-piece aluminum chassis gives you a rifle that handles like a precision instrument.

Built on Savage's reputation for accuracy, the B17 Precision Lite starts with a button-rifled stainless barrel and adds an adjustable AccuTrigger you can fine-tune to your preference. The aluminum chassis features an adjustable cheek riser and length-of-pull spacers—essential for dialing in your natural sight picture without guesswork. M-Lok slots in the forends and MDT pistol grip let you mount supports and accessories exactly where you want them, and the 20 MOA Picatinny rail gives you plenty of vertical adjustment for reaching out. The 10-round rotary magazine feeds reliably, and at just under 6.8 pounds, this rifle rewards precision shooting without punishing your arms on a long range day.

Whether you're competing on a precision rimfire circuit, working on fundamentals, or hunting varmints where accuracy counts, the B17 Precision Lite is a straightforward, no-nonsense platform that lets you focus on your trigger control and wind reading. Right-hand configuration.

This is a precision rimfire rifle purpose-built for target shooting and competition. The adjustable chassis, tunable AccuTrigger, and balanced weight distribution make it ideal for shooters focused on accuracy and consistency at distance in 17 HMR.

Can I adjust the length of pull and cheek height?

What's included with the rifle?

How does the carbon fiber barrel wrap help?

The carbon fiber wrap on the stainless steel barrel reduces overall weight and improves heat dissipation during rapid-fire strings, helping maintain point-of-impact consistency and keeping the rifle balanced for easier handling and faster sight acquisition between shots.
