Description
The Savage Rascal Target XP 22 LR is a compact single-shot bolt-action youth rifle with a 16 1/8-inch heavy threaded carbon steel barrel, a black hardwood precision stock, and a mounted 4x32mm scope, all sized for smaller shooters. It weighs about 5.95 lbs, so young hands can hold it steady and learn good habits from the very first shot.
Savage Rascal Target XP 22 LR Overview
Savage built the Rascal to be one of the safest and most accurate first rifles available. It cocks by lifting the bolt, and you can unload it without pulling the trigger, which removes one of the most common ways a new shooter can make a mistake. Full-size rifle features help kids build real marksmanship skills instead of outgrowing a toy-like gun in a single season. 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.
Built for Safety
Safety is the first lesson for any new shooter, and this rifle is designed around it. A manual safety is easy to see and operate, and because the rifle holds a single cartridge, every shot is deliberate. An adult can load one round, coach the shot, and then hand over the next round, which keeps range time controlled, calm, and focused on fundamentals.
Barrel and Accuracy
The 16 1/8-inch heavy carbon steel barrel has a 1:16 twist matched to 22 LR bullets, an 11-degree target crown that protects the rifling for consistent accuracy, and a threaded muzzle. The heavier profile steadies the rifle for tight groups from a rest, and a feed ramp guides each cartridge smoothly into the chamber.
Mounted Scope
This Target XP package comes with a 4x32mm scope mounted on a one-piece Picatinny rail, so a young shooter can see small targets clearly and practice precise shooting right away. A bipod and sling swivel stud mount on the forend lets you add a bipod for steady shooting from the bench or prone.
User-Adjustable Trigger
Savage includes its user-adjustable AccuTrigger on this youth rifle, the same trigger system found on its full-size hunting rifles. A light, crisp, predictable pull makes it much easier for a beginner to hold the sights steady through the shot, and the center safety blade helps prevent accidental discharge.
Sized for Young Shooters
The precision-style black hardwood stock gives young target shooters a solid, steady hold, and the compact length of about 30.6 inches keeps the rifle easy for kids to handle. The package includes ear plugs and a firearms lock, so you have the basics for safe range sessions from day one.
Care and Cleaning
Rimfire ammunition leaves more fouling than most centerfire loads, so a little routine care keeps the Savage Rascal Target XP 22 LR running 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 and it will give you years of dependable service.
