Trigger and shootability

AccuTrigger is the centerpiece for many buyers. It allows a safe, user-adjustable pull that reduces lock time and helps shooters maintain the sight picture through recoil. For training applications where consistent trigger feel matters, being able to tune the trigger to your preference improves follow-through and repeatable results.

Barrel design and mounting options

Heavy, button-rifled, fluted, threaded

The heavy profile combined with button rifling delivers a balance of rigidity and smooth bore finish, improving inherent accuracy for a rimfire. Fluting reduces weight while aiding cooling; threading provides the option for muzzle devices or suppressors where legal. The one-piece scope rail keeps zero consistent and simplifies optic installation for shooters moving from iron sight drills to scoped precision work.

Magazine and ergonomics

Detachable box magazines speed reloads during training drills and make storage and transport more practical. The platform’s ergonomics and stock geometry on various model options from Savage Arms also lend themselves to customization with aftermarket sights and mounts.

At $279.99 the Savage Mark II FV-SR 16.5″ .22LR is a pragmatic rimfire bolt action that brings tuneable trigger control, a robust threaded barrel, and optics-ready mounting to the table.
