Savage Arms Releases Suppressor-Ready Rimfires

Savage Arms wanted to give shooters at the range or in the field the option to keep things quiet with its newest line of rimfire rifles.

For 2014, Savage has expanded this lineup with two new suppressor-ready rifles that deliver quality and accuracy.

The bolt-action Model 93 FV-SR chambered in 22 WMR and Model 93R17 FV-SR chambered in 17 HMR weigh 5.5 pounds.

Other specifications include an overall length of 35.25 inches and a barrel length of 16.5 inches. Each are equipped with a heavy, fluted barrel — which improves accuracy and dissipates heat quickly — an easy-to-use oversized bolt handle and a five-round detachable magazine, as well as Savage Arm’s user-adjustable AccuTrigger.

The 93R17 FV-SR has a rate of twist of 1-in-9 inches and the 93 FV-SR has 1-in-16 inches.

Both rifles retail for $358.

Both rifles also feature a half-inch, 28-pitch threaded muzzle with a twist-off thread protector, a buttoned-rifled, a carbon steel barrel, a one-piece optic/accessory rail, a checkered synthetic stock and black matte finish.
