Another in the Savage A series of 'higher powered' rimfire rifles I see . Well, time and range reports will let me know if this will be a good performer too. I do look forward to your range report, Mike, thanks for this.

Nice,plainly understandable review, demonstration of this rifle! One thing I would be interested in, your evaluation of the Accutrigger in this rifle. I have two other Savage rifles/bolt guns,with this trigger design,that adjust from a stated trigger pull of 2-5 lbs. They work superbly! In my example or the .22Mag. in semi-auto,the manual says that it is adjustable between 3-5lbs., but my example will not adjust below 4-4.5lbs. This makes for real accuracy issues for me! I contacted Savage about this, they said send it in to them,but in today’s current political climate,I don’t want to part with my property,in case something would cause it to be lost. I took it to a local gunsmith,and he tried to fix it,but no other springs/ parts were available for it,other then a complete replacement trigger assembly,that cost as much as what I paid for the gun!! So I’m interested in your experience in testing. 🤔

Nice review... looking forward to your field test results.

Great... I'm real interested to see the reliability. These semiauto 22 Magnum's are notoriously finicky with cycling ammo.

All of Savage's efforts, the plastic, the lug vs heavy bolt are geared toward keeping the gun light weight.. this is a GOOD thing. A wood stock? A One Pound Bolt? Why would I want a 7 pound rimfire rifle? The new CZ rifle is obviously beautiful with a Walnut stock and it is well made but it is heavier.

What an awesome review!

I'll work on that. I am the film crew as well as the reviewer.

My 2 cent observation of this A22 bolt function...the bolt delay action is similar in principle to the roller action of an HK MP5 except, instead of rollers, it uses a simplified, single cam wedge. There's got to be more friction on this little wedge when the in motion which rollers would eliminate. Makes me wonder how long before the wedge shows signs of wear? I wonder if a single roller cam design could work to greatly reduce friction?

Also the receiver is made from Aluminum, so you have a steel locking bar grinding on a aluminum receiver. For that matter the bolt itself is riding on the aluminum rails of the receiver. Might want to use grease instead of oil for lube.

Given the popularity and durability of "plastic" pistols these days on heavy recoil calibers like 40 & 45 --- I think plastic will be fine on 17 hmr, 22's and 22 magnums.

Do you mean the 22 LR version of the Savage A22, or the rifle in this video which is 22 Magnum? If you mean both in 22LR then I would chose the 10/22 take down. The 10/22 is a gun I think every family should own, but hat is just me. If every responsible, law abiding family in America had an AR15 and a 10/22 I think our nation would be safer.......but that is a different topic, sorry. The take down is handier and more versatile. The savage is nice but the 10/22 magazines are great and I have a bunch. Having good 25 round mags would be one factor alone that would tip the scales in favor of the Ruger for me.

The spring in the magazines is too stiff when new. If you down load to 15 to 20 rounds it will run just fine. Load the Butler Creek magazines fully and let them sit for a couple of weeks. Or just down load and use them a while and they will function just fine.
