The Savage Mark II BSEV .22 LR is a bolt-action rimfire rifle from Savage Arms (Savage part no. 25740), built for shooters who want serious accuracy without giving up personality. It pairs a heavy sporter barrel with a thumbhole laminate stock, making it just as comfortable on the plinking line as it is in a dedicated rimfire hunting kit. The spiral-fluted barrel profile trims weight while keeping the stiffness needed for consistent shot placement. Savage built this rifle around its AccuTrigger system, so shooters get a crisp, no-creep break without any gunsmithing. Whether it is squirrel season or an afternoon of bullseye shooting, the BSEV brings match-grade accuracy to a rifle that still looks great in the safe.

Key Specifications

• Chambered in .22 LR, one of the most versatile and affordable rimfire cartridges for practice and small-game hunting.

• A 1-in-16-inch rate of twist stabilizes standard .22 LR bullet weights for reliable accuracy downrange.

• Comes fitted with an integrated scope base for mounting optics without extra gunsmithing.
• A manual thumb safety gives the shooter a simple, positive way to keep the rifle safe until ready to fire.
