When it comes to building fundamental skills or putting meat in the pot, a reliable .22 is the cornerstone of any practical collection. The B22 G’s action is smooth and its 21-inch barrel gives you that extra bit of sight radius and velocity—crucial for stretching your range on squirrels or paper. At a weight around 6 pounds, it carries easily all day but remains steady on target. The real workhorse here is the AccuTrigger. You get a clean, predictable break that teaches proper trigger discipline from the start, a feature usually reserved for higher-priced centerfires. Mounting a scope is straightforward with the pre-drilled and tapped receiver; it’s compatible with standard rimfire scope rings from brands like Weaver or Leupold. Here’s the thing—for $389.43, you’re getting a no-nonsense rifle that performs without demanding constant tweaking or maintenance.

It’s for anyone who appreciates the tactile feedback of a bolt action and the timeless look of real wood, but doesn’t want to sacrifice modern performance. If your scenario involves quiet afternoons at the farmstead dispatching pests or methodically punching tiny groups at 50 yards, this Savage is built for that job.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The adjustable AccuTrigger is a standout advantage for accuracy. The walnut stock offers classic aesthetics and durability. The rotary magazine is famously reliable with .22 LR ammunition. The design is simple, robust, and requires minimal gunsmithing for scope setup.
Cons: As a bolt-action .22, it’s not suited for rapid-fire scenarios. The classic stock may be heavier than synthetic alternatives for some users. The magazine, while reliable, is a proprietary model specific to the B22 series.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of scope rings does this rifle need?
A: The receiver is pre-drilled and tapped for a standard .22 tip-off scope base or for Weaver-style bases. Most common rimfire rings from brands like UTG or Warne will mount directly, making it drop-in ready for your preferred optic.

A: Yes. Using the provided tool, you can safely adjust the pull weight within a specified range to suit your preference, a rare feature in a rifle at this price point. It allows you to set it up for a beginner or dial it in for serious target work.
Q: Can this rifle handle .22 Short or .22 Long ammunition?
A: It is chambered specifically for .22 Long Rifle. While it may sometimes feed and fire .22 Long, it is not designed or recommended for .22 Short.
