The Savage 93 FV-SR in .17 HMR (brand part no. 96699) is a bolt-action varmint rifle with a 16.5-inch heavy carbon steel barrel that is button rifled and threaded at the muzzle. It rides in a black matte synthetic varmint stock with a recoil pad and uses a one-piece scope rail, so a scope mounts easily. The user-adjustable AccuTrigger and a five-round detachable box magazine round out the package. Savage built the 93 series for small-game and varmint shooters who want accurate rimfire performance at a modest price.
