Savage B22 F Left-Hand .22 LR 21″ 10+1 Matte Black

If you’re a left-handed precision rimfire shooter looking for a factory rifle that doesn’t make you work around a right-eject action, the Savage B22 F Left-Hand .22 LR 21” 10+1 Matte Black delivers exactly that. This is a dedicated left-port, left-bolt rimfire built around Savage’s proven AccuTrigger system and a button-rifled barrel. The 21-inch barrel gives you enough velocity to stretch .22 LR past 100 yards while keeping the overall length manageable for bench or field use. The synthetic stock has a raised comb and a vertical grip, which means you can establish a repeatable cheek weld and consistent trigger pull position—critical for stacking rounds at distance. For under $310, this is a purpose-built lefty rifle that doesn’t cut corners on the fundamentals.

Key Features

• Left-Hand Bolt and Port – The ejection port and bolt handle are on the left side, so you don’t have to break your cheek weld or reach across the receiver to cycle rounds. Why it matters: faster follow-up shots and no brass in your face.
• AccuTrigger – Savage’s adjustable trigger lets you dial pull weight from about 2.5 to 6 pounds without tools. Why it matters: you can set a clean, predictable break that matches your hold and wind call.
• 21-Inch Button-Rifled Barrel – Cold hammer-forged? No—button rifling produces a smoother bore with less stress, which often translates to better accuracy with match .22 LR ammo. Why it matters: you can hold sub-MOA groups at 50 yards with the right ammunition.
• Raised Comb and Vertical Grip Stock – The synthetic stock is designed for a taller sight line (scope use) and a more vertical wrist angle. Why it matters: repeatable head position and a more natural trigger finger placement for precision shooting.
• Drilled and Tapped Receiver – No need for aftermarket rails or gunsmithing for scope mounting. Why it matters: you can mount your preferred rimfire optic in minutes with standard bases.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the left-handed shooter who wants a production .22 LR bolt gun that doesn’t require modification to be usable. It fits the benchrest shooter, the squirrel hunter who values accuracy, and the beginner looking for a dedicated lefty platform to learn fundamentals. If you shoot NRL22 or ARA matches and shoot left-handed, this is a budget-friendly entry that won’t hold you back.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: True left-hand action—no awkward cross-body bolt manipulation.
• Pro: AccuTrigger is genuinely adjustable and crisp out of the box.
• Pro: Rotary magazine feeds reliably and doesn’t bulge in the stock.
• Con: The synthetic stock is functional but feels a bit hollow; aftermarket stock options are limited compared to right-hand models.
• Con: The factory trigger pull weight range is limited to 2.5-6 lbs; some precision shooters prefer a sub-2 lb option, which requires an aftermarket trigger.

The Ruger American Rimfire left-hand model uses a right-side ejection port, so brass ejects across your line of sight. The CZ 457 left-hand has a true left port but costs significantly more and uses a 5-round magazine. The Savage B22 F is the only one in this price range with a left-hand port and a vertical grip stock.

FAQ

Is the Savage B22 F Left-Hand compatible with standard scope bases?

Yes. The receiver is drilled and tapped for #8-40 screws, which fits most Weaver-style or Picatinny rail bases for rimfire rifles. You can mount a one-piece or two-piece base without any modification.

What ammunition does this rifle shoot best?

Per Savage’s test data, the B22 F typically groups best with high-velocity or standard-velocity match ammo in the 40-grain range. Brands like CCI Standard Velocity, SK Standard+, or Eley Club often produce sub-inch groups at 50 yards. Avoid subsonic loads below 1050 fps—they may not cycle the bolt smoothly for some shooters.

Can I adjust the AccuTrigger without a gunsmith?

Yes. The AccuTrigger has an external adjustment screw located inside the trigger housing. You turn it with a 1/16-inch hex key to adjust pull weight from approximately 2.5 to 6 pounds. No disassembly required.

Is the 10-round rotary magazine reliable?

Yes. The rotary design prevents rim-lock, which is common with stacked .22 LR magazines. It feeds consistently as long as you load it correctly—follow the rotation direction marked on the magazine body.

Does this rifle come with scope rings or a rail?

No. The rifle ships with a bare receiver that is drilled and tapped. You will need to purchase scope bases and rings separately.
