The Savage B17 Timberlite thumbhole rifle in .17 HMR with an 18-inch threaded barrel and grey/black spiderweb laminate finish (brand part no. 70818) pairs precision rimfire performance with a striking wood stock. Savage builds the ambidextrous thumbhole stock from laminate wood and threads the barrel 1/2-28 with a cap included, and the user-adjustable AccuTrigger breaks between 2.5 and 6 pounds for a crisp, customizable pull. Thread-in headspacing tightens tolerances for accuracy, and a 10-round rotary magazine keeps ammunition feeding reliably. Among thumbhole-stock bolt action rifles, this B17 Timberlite configuration favors rimfire shooters who want both precision and distinctive styling.
