Savage Sav 70217 B22 22Lr Bolt Timber Th
The Savage B22 is a purpose-built .22 LR bolt-action rimfire rifle designed for shooters who want genuine precision in a compact, handy platform. With its laminated wood thumbhole stock, adjustable trigger, and threaded muzzle, this is a serious training and small-game rifle that doesn't sacrifice ergonomics or control for its modest size. Whether you're zeroing fundamentals, working on trigger discipline, or introducing new shooters to bolt-action mechanics, the B22 delivers the accuracy and reliability Savage is known for in a format that fits shooters of all hand orientations.
Built on a proven rimfire action with a carbon steel receiver and barrel, both finished in matte blue, the B22 avoids unnecessary weight while maintaining rigidity where it counts. The short 16.5-inch barrel keeps the overall length to just 36 inches, making it equally at home in a truck rack, a tight shooting position, or in the hands of younger or smaller-framed shooters. The beech wood stock with grey matte finish is both durable and visually straightforward—built to work, not to distract.
The user-adjustable AccuTrigger (2.5–6 lb range) is a genuine feature that lets you dial in the break you prefer, something rarely found on rimfire rifles at this level. A 10-round rotary magazine keeps feeding reliable, the rifle ships with a two-piece Weaver base for optics mounting, and dual sling studs give you flexibility in how you carry. The threaded muzzle (1/2x28) opens the door to suppressors and muzzle devices—practical for range sessions and backcountry work alike.
If you're building a lightweight .22 rifle for serious practice, a trainer for the kids, or a legitimate small-game tool that doesn't pretend to be something it's not, the Savage B22 is a no-nonsense choice that earns its place in the safe.
