Description

There's a sweet spot between a target rifle and a hunting rifle, and the Savage B22 Magnum TimberLite Thumbhole sits right in it. Savage took their proven B22 bolt action, wrapped an 18 inch stainless barrel in carbon fiber to shave weight, and dropped it into a laminate wood thumbhole stock finished in grey with black spiderweb accents. The whole package weighs just 5.3 pounds, so you get that stiff, heavy-barrel feel on the bench without lugging heavy-barrel weight up a ridge.

Why the TimberLite Thumbhole Shoots the Way It Does

A few things stack up in this rifle's favor. The carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel is button rifled with a 1:16 twist that handles 22 WMR loads well, and thread-in headspacing keeps chamber dimensions consistent. Savage's AccuTrigger is user adjustable from 2.5 to 6 pounds, so you can dial in a crisp, light break at home without a trip to the gunsmith. The ambidextrous thumbhole stock puts your hand in a relaxed, repeatable position that makes good trigger control come naturally, whether you shoot righty or lefty. Feeding comes from the same 10-round rotary magazine design that has earned the B Series its reputation for smooth, reliable cycling.

Set Up Your B22 Magnum TimberLite Your Way

There are no iron sights here, and that's by design. A 20 MOA rail up top gives you a solid mounting platform for a scope, and the extra cant is a nice bonus if you like stretching a 22 Magnum out past typical rimfire distances. The muzzle is threaded 1/2×28 and ships with a cap, so adding a suppressor or other muzzle device is a simple twist-on job. Two sling studs round it out, with the front stud doubling as a bipod mount.

The 22 WMR chambering makes this one a genuinely useful small game and varmint rifle, hitting harder and flatter than a 22 LR while staying pleasant to shoot. If you want one rimfire that can pull double duty between the bench and the field, this B22 Magnum makes a strong case for itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Savage B22 TimberLite Thumbhole come with sights or a scope?

No, it ships without iron sights or an optic. The receiver wears a 20 MOA rail, so mounting a scope is quick and the built-in cant helps if you like shooting your 22 Magnum at longer distances. Plan on adding glass before your first range trip.

Is the muzzle threaded for a suppressor?

Yes, the 18 inch barrel is threaded 1/2×28, which is the standard rimfire suppressor pattern. Savage includes a thread cap to protect the threads when you're not running anything on the muzzle. A 22 WMR through a can is a genuinely enjoyable setup for pest control and quiet range days.

Can a left-handed shooter use the B22 TimberLite Thumbhole comfortably?

The thumbhole stock itself is ambidextrous, so lefties get the same comfortable grip and cheek position as right-handed users. Keep in mind the bolt handle is on the right side, so a left-handed shooter will reach over the action to cycle it. Plenty of southpaws run right-bolt rimfires this way without much fuss.

How adjustable is the trigger on this rifle?

It uses Savage's AccuTrigger, which you can adjust from about 2.5 up to 6 pounds using the included tool, no gunsmith needed. The AccuTrigger design also gives a crisp break with minimal creep, which is a big part of why B Series rifles shoot as well as they do.
