Description
The Savage B17 F 17 HMR is a bolt-action rimfire rifle with a 21-inch sporter carbon steel barrel, a black synthetic stock, a 10-round rotary magazine, and a user-adjustable trigger. It weighs about 5.5 lbs and is built for accurate, dependable shooting.
Savage B17 F 17 HMR Overview
The B Series F is Savage’s straightforward, accurate rimfire bolt gun, combining a smooth bolt action with a crisp adjustable trigger and a durable synthetic stock at a price that leaves room for good ammunition and optics. The 17 HMR launches a light, fast bullet on a remarkably flat trajectory, which makes it a favorite for groundhogs, prairie dogs, crows, and other small varmints out past 150 yards.
Barrel and Action
The 21-inch carbon steel sporter barrel is button rifled for uniform grooves and consistent accuracy, with a 1:9 twist matched to 17 HMR bullets. The sporter profile keeps the rifle light and well balanced for carrying in the field.
Stock and Fit
The modern, ergonomic composite stock is tough, lightweight, and weather resistant, so it will not swell or warp in rain or humidity, and a top tang safety sits right under your thumb for quick, quiet operation. A 13.5-inch length of pull fits most adult shooters.
Optics Ready
Two-piece Weaver-style bases come installed, so mounting a rimfire scope is quick and simple.
User-Adjustable Trigger
Savage’s user-adjustable AccuTrigger lets you set your own pull weight for a crisp, clean break, a big advantage on small targets. The center safety blade helps prevent accidental discharge, and the light, predictable pull helps new shooters build good habits.
Magazine and Handling
The 10-round rotary magazine feeds smoothly and sits nearly flush with the bottom of the stock, so it stays out of the way when you carry the rifle or shoot from a rest. Spare magazines make range days more productive, and dropping the magazine makes unloading quick and safe.
In the Field
Rimfire rifles often prefer one load over another, so try a few brands of 17 HMR to see which groups best in your barrel. Lighter, faster bullets are great for small pests, while heavier bullets buck the wind better. Pair the rifle with a quality rimfire scope and a steady rest, and you will be surprised how far you can make precise hits.
Care and Cleaning
Rimfire ammunition leaves more fouling than most centerfire loads, so a little routine care keeps the Savage B17 F 17 HMR 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.
