Performance: Why .22-250 Remington works here

.22-250 Remington delivers high velocity and a flat trajectory ideal for varmint work and precision small-game work at extended ranges. The combination of that caliber with Savage’s AccuTrigger and the consistent headspacing reduces vertical stringing and tightens groups. The factory-mounted 3-9×40 gives shooters immediate utility on the range or field, and the tool-less scope adjustments simplify zeroing without additional tools.

Ergonomics and control

The updated bolt handle improves manipulation speed and comfort during rapid follow-up shots or in adverse weather. The ODG polymer stock offers a grippy, lightweight platform that balances well for prone or offhand work. Savage Arms’ bolt-action design remains straightforward for maintenance and long-term reliability. View product details and pricing
