Savage B22 Magnum G 22 WMR 21 in. Walnut Stock

The Savage B22 Magnum G 22 WMR 21 in. Walnut Stock is a purpose-built rimfire rifle that bridges the gap between small-game hunting and precision rimfire shooting. Chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (WMR), this bolt-action rifle delivers flat trajectories and retained energy well beyond standard .22 LR, making it a serious tool for varmint control and steel-ringing out to 200 yards. The 21-inch carbon steel sporter barrel is paired with a walnut-stained hardwood stock that features a modern high-comb design and vertical pistol grip — an ergonomic layout that translates directly to consistent cheek weld and repeatable trigger pulls. Savage’s adjustable AccuTrigger is included, along with adjustable iron sights and a receiver drilled and tapped for scope mounting. A detachable rotary magazine keeps the profile slim while feeding reliably.

Key Features

• Adjustable AccuTrigger — Why it matters: lets you dial pull weight from 2.5 to 6 lbs without a gunsmith, so you can tune for benchrest precision or cold-weather gloved use.
• High-Comb Walnut-Stained Stock with Vertical Grip — Why it matters: positions your eye directly behind the scope axis and promotes a natural, repeatable trigger hand placement — critical for consistent shot calls at distance.
• 21-Inch Carbon Steel Sporter Barrel — Why it matters: the extra length over typical 18-inch rimfire barrels adds muzzle velocity to .22 WMR loads (roughly 50-80 fps depending on ammo), flattening trajectory and extending effective range.
• Detachable Rotary Magazine — Why it matters: feeds the .22 WMR rim reliably without rim-lock, and the 10-round capacity keeps you in the game on prairie dog towns or steel stages.
• Drilled and Tapped Receiver — Why it matters: accepts standard rimfire scope bases (like Weaver or Picatinny) so you can mount optics without a trip to the machine shop.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the rimfire shooter who demands more than a plinker. If you’re chasing ground squirrels at 150 yards, ringing steel at 200, or training fundamentals on a budget, the .22 WMR chambering and AccuTrigger give you the precision edge. It’s also a solid choice for new shooters stepping up from .22 LR who want a rifle that rewards good form without punishing recoil.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: AccuTrigger is genuinely adjustable and crisp — no creep at the lightest setting.
• Pro: Stock geometry is modern and shooter-friendly, not your granddad’s straight comb.
• Pro: .22 WMR hits harder and flies flatter than .22 LR, making it viable for small-game hunting at distance.
• Con: The walnut-stained hardwood is not a true walnut stock — it’s a stained hardwood, so expect less grain character and slightly more weight than a genuine walnut stock.

FAQ

Does this rifle come with scope rings or a scope?

No. The Savage B22 Magnum G is shipped with adjustable iron sights and a receiver drilled and tapped for scope mounts. You will need to purchase rings and a scope separately. Per Savage Arms, the receiver is compatible with standard #8-40 screw patterns.

What is the magazine capacity?

The factory detachable rotary magazine holds 10 rounds of .22 WMR. It is designed to prevent rim-lock and feeds reliably with most factory ammunition.

Can I use .22 LR in this rifle?

No. The B22 Magnum G is chambered exclusively for .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (.22 WMR). Do not attempt to chamber or fire .22 Long Rifle rounds — case diameter and pressure are different, and doing so could cause damage or injury.

Is the stock real walnut?

The stock is walnut-stained hardwood, not solid walnut. It offers a similar aesthetic but with less pronounced grain and slightly heavier weight. Per Savage specs, the stock is designed for durability in field conditions.

What is the barrel twist rate?

The 21-inch carbon steel barrel has a 1:16-inch twist rate, optimized for the 30- to 40-grain bullets typical of .22 WMR ammunition.
