Description
The Savage A Series Target Thumbhole 22 LR is a semi-automatic rimfire rifle with a 22-inch fluted heavy carbon steel barrel, a gray laminate thumbhole stock, a 10-round rotary magazine, and picatinny scope mount for easy optic mounting. It weighs about 7.08 lbs and is built to deliver fast follow-up shots with real accuracy.
Savage A Series Target Thumbhole 22 LR Overview
The A Series Target Thumbhole pairs Savage’s reliable 22 LR semi-auto with a fluted heavy target barrel and a laminate thumbhole stock, turning an affordable rimfire into a real tack driver for the range or the squirrel woods. The 22 LR is the most popular cartridge in the world for good reason: ammunition is affordable and easy to find, recoil is almost nonexistent, and it is quiet enough for backyard plinking, squirrel hunting, and hours of practice.
Semi-Auto Action
The straight-blowback action is simple, proven, and reliable with a wide range of 22 LR loads. Fewer moving parts mean easier cleaning and dependable cycling, and the oversized bolt handle is easy to grab with gloves or cold fingers.
Barrel
The 22-inch fluted heavy carbon steel barrel has a 1:16″ twist matched to 22 LR bullets and a satin finish. The heavier profile soaks up heat during long strings of fire and steadies the rifle for tight groups from a rest.
Stock and Fit
The gray wood laminate stock has a target-style thumbhole that puts your hand in a natural, near-vertical position for a straight-back trigger press. Laminate is stiff and resists moisture better than solid wood, and its weight helps steady the rifle on the bench.
Trigger
Savage’s user-adjustable AccuTrigger lets you set your own pull weight for a crisp, clean break, a big advantage on small targets at long range. The center safety blade helps prevent accidental discharge, and the light, predictable pull helps you shoot this rifle as accurately as it is capable of shooting.
Rotary Magazine
The 10-round rotary magazine feeds smoothly and sits nearly flush with the bottom of the stock, so it does not snag on brush or get in the way when shooting from a rest. Carry a spare or two for long days in a prairie dog town, and drop the magazine to unload quickly and safely between stands.
Optics Ready
A Picatinny scope mount comes installed, giving you a solid base for a target scope or red dot. Pair the rifle with a quality rimfire scope to take full advantage of its accuracy.
Care and Cleaning
Rimfire ammunition leaves more fouling than most centerfire loads, so a little routine care keeps the Savage A Series Target Thumbhole 22 LR cycling smoothly and shooting accurately. After a range session, wipe down the bolt and chamber area, run a few patches through the bore, and put a light coat of oil on exposed metal. Store the rifle in a dry place, check that the action screws stay snug, and it will give you years of dependable service.
