Description
The Savage Mark I G 22 LR is a bolt-action rimfire rifle with a 19-inch sporter carbon steel barrel, a high-luster hardwood stock, a single-shot action, and a user-adjustable trigger. It weighs about 5 lbs and is built for accurate, dependable shooting.
Savage Mark I G 22 LR Overview
The Mark I G is a reliable, accurate single-shot 22 LR that makes an ideal first rifle, teaching careful, deliberate shooting with every round. 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 plinking, squirrel hunting, and hours of practice.
Barrel and Action
The 19-inch carbon steel sporter barrel has a 1:16 twist matched to 22 LR bullets, and its light profile keeps the rifle easy for young or smaller shooters to hold steady.
Stock and Fit
The wooden stock has a high-luster finish that gives the rifle a classic look, and its 13-inch length of pull fits youth and smaller-framed shooters comfortably. Wood is a natural material, so every stock shows its own grain.
Open Sights
Open sights come installed, so a new shooter learns proper sight alignment and sight picture before ever looking through a scope. The receiver is drilled and tapped if you want to add a scope later.
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
Because the rifle holds one cartridge at a time, every shot is deliberate. An adult can load one round, coach the shot, and then hand over the next round, which keeps range time calm and focused on fundamentals.
In the Field
Rimfire rifles often prefer one load over another, so try a few brands of 22 LR 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 Mark I G 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.
