Precision shooting at the rimfire level demands gear that balances consistency, control, and repeatable ergonomics. Tactical shooters and range professionals often choose platforms that bring a match-grade barrel and a trigger system that can be tuned without gunsmithing—traits that directly impact group size and follow-up shot quality.

SAVAGE .22 LR

Design and accuracy features

The SAVAGE .22 LR is described as delivering “everything you want in a bolt-action 22 repeater,” with a long-range heavy barrel and a threaded muzzle—features that give this rifle excellent inherent accuracy and the flexibility to accept muzzle devices or suppressors. Although the product is listed under the Semi Auto category on the retailer page, its core design and description emphasize bolt-action repeatability, which many precision shooters prefer for consistent barrel harmonics.

AccuTrigger: user-adjustable performance

AccuTrigger is a standard feature on this platform, allowing a user-adjustable trigger pull without the need for a gunsmith. That system produces a crisp, clean break that reduces shooter-induced error. For tactical use, an adjustable trigger lets operators set a predictable pull weight for controlled follow-up shots and target work.

Field use and tactical considerations

The heavy barrel improves heat capacity and reduces point-of-impact shift across strings, making the SAVAGE .22 LR suited to extended range sessions, small-game work, and precision training. The threaded muzzle expands options for attaching compensators or quieting devices where legal and appropriate. Priced at $501.99, this rifle sits in a competitive range for shooters seeking match-capable performance without a premium boutique price.

Savage Arms’ reputation for reliable, accuracy-focused platforms reinforces the SAVAGE .22 LR as a practical choice for those who want precision rimfire performance. The combination of heavy barrel length, threaded muzzle, and AccuTrigger makes it a versatile training and target rifle that translates well to duty-style marksmanship work.
