Description
There's a reason the Savage Mark II keeps showing up at squirrel camps and rimfire matches year after year. It's a simple, well-built bolt gun that shoots better than its price tag suggests, and the FXP package sweetens the deal by handling the optic for you. The 3-9x40mm scope comes mounted and boresighted from the factory, so a quick zero at the range is all that stands between you and tight groups.
What Makes the Mark II FXP Shoot So Well
Start with the barrel. The 21-inch carbon steel tube is button rifled, a process Savage uses across its lineup because it produces consistent, accurate bores. Then there's the AccuTrigger, which is the real standout on this rifle. You can adjust the pull weight yourself at home, no gunsmith visit required, and the break is crisp and clean in a way you rarely find on rimfires in this class. Pair those two with quality ammo and this rifle will genuinely surprise you at 50 and 100 yards.
Built for the Field, Not the Safe
The OD green synthetic stock shrugs off rain, mud, and truck-bed abuse without a second thought, and it comes with sling swivel studs already installed so you can add a sling and hit the woods. The matte blued barrel keeps glare down, and at right around six pounds with a 39.5-inch overall length, it carries easily on long walks after rabbits and squirrels. Feeding comes from a 10-round detachable box magazine, which keeps range sessions moving and reloads quick.
A Smart First Rifle or a Trusty Loaner
With almost no recoil, cheap ammo, and a proper adjustable trigger, the Mark II FXP is a great way to teach new folks the fundamentals or to keep your own skills sharp between big game seasons. Plinking cans, punching paper, thinning out the garden raiders, it covers all of it without fuss. Scoped rimfire packages don't get much more complete than this one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Savage Mark II FXP ready to shoot out of the box?
Just about. The 3-9x40mm scope comes mounted and boresighted from the factory, so it will get you on paper right away. Plan on spending a few minutes at the range fine-tuning your zero with the ammo you intend to run, since boresighting gets you close but isn't a true zero.
Can I adjust the trigger on the Mark II FXP myself?
Yes, that's the whole point of Savage's AccuTrigger. It's user-adjustable for pull weight using the included tool and instructions in the manual, so there's no gunsmith trip needed. Even before adjustment, it breaks noticeably cleaner than most factory rimfire triggers.
What magazine does this rifle use and can I buy spares?
This version ships with one 10-round detachable box magazine. Savage Mark II magazines are widely available, and extra 10-round and 5-round mags are easy to find if you want spares for range days or hunting.
Is the Savage Mark II FXP a good rifle for a new shooter?
It's one of the better choices out there for learning. The .22 LR chambering has almost no recoil, ammo is inexpensive, and the bolt action encourages deliberate, fundamentals-focused shooting. The included scope and adjustable trigger also remove the two biggest hurdles most beginners run into.
