Savage B22 Sav 70518 22Mg Bolt Timberlite Th
The Savage B22 is a compact .22 WMR bolt-action rimfire built for shooters who want real rifle performance in a lighter, handier package. At 36 inches overall and just 5.3 pounds, it's designed for precision work at the range, small-game hunting, or training without the bulk of a centerfire. The carbon-fiber-wrapped stainless barrel keeps weight down while delivering the durability you expect from Savage, and the matte black finish resists glare and wear.
What sets this rifle apart is its Timberlite stock—a grey laminate wood thumbhole design that's both functional and visually distinctive. The ergonomic thumbhole layout works equally well for right- or left-handed shooters, and the 13.5-inch length of pull accommodates a wide range of body sizes without sacrificing control. Two sling studs are already installed, so you can get into the field right away.
The mechanical foundation is Savage's proven bolt action with their user-adjustable AccuTrigger, tunable from 2.5 to 6 pounds to match your preference and shooting style. The 10-round rotary magazine feeds .22 WMR ammunition reliably, and the 1-in-16 twist barrel is optimized for standard .22 Magnum ballistics. Threading at 1/2x28 (with cap included) gives you the option to add a suppressor or muzzle device down the road. Two-piece Weaver bases are pre-drilled so mounting optics takes minutes, not hours.
This is a rimfire that doesn't compromise—compact enough to carry all day, accurate enough to trust at distance, and finished in a stock design that catches the eye. Whether you're zeroing a new scope, culling varmints, or teaching someone to shoot, the B22 delivers Savage reliability in a trim, modern platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
What optics can I mount on the Savage B22?
The rifle comes pre-drilled with two-piece Weaver bases, so any standard Weaver-format scope ring and optic will install directly without additional gunsmithing. Popular choices for .22 WMR include 3–9x40 hunting scopes or compact red-dot sights for closer-range work.
Can I use a suppressor on this rifle?
Yes. The muzzle is threaded 1/2x28, and a muzzle cap is included. This is a common suppressor thread pitch, so suppressors designed for that specification will fit. Check your local and state regulations on suppressor ownership and use.
Is the Timberlite stock ambidextrous?
The grey laminate Timberlite thumbhole stock is designed with an ambidextrous grip, making it comfortable for both right- and left-handed shooters. The length of pull is 13.5 inches, which accommodates most adult and youth body sizes.
What's the difference between .22 WMR and standard .22 LR?
This rifle is chambered in .22 WMR (Magnum), which delivers significantly more power and velocity than .22 LR. It's a better choice for hunting small game at distance, varmint control, and target work, but ammunition cost is higher. Always verify your ammunition matches the rifle's chamber before loading.
