Savage B17 F-SR Bolt Action Rifle - 17HMR

U.S. manufacturer SAVAGE is known for having an extensive catalog of carbines in 17 HMR caliber. One of these bolt-action carbines is the SAVAGE B17 F SR 17 HMR, a small rifle with great accuracy and reliability. As in the rest of the references of this brand, its designation illustrates its characteristics. The F stands for synthetic stock and the acronym SR for suppressor ready.

The first thing that strikes us about this carbine is its black synthetic stock, with molded areas and differentiated textures in areas of contact with the hands. The pistol grip has a good angle and lower stop, designed for precision shooting.

These features give it good ergonomics, although it does not have a rubber butt pad. This is obviously unnecessary due to recoil issues, but it is necessary for the extra grip it provides against the shoulder, preventing any slippage. The stock is completed with two swivel bolts for attaching the rings of a rifle belt. The finish of this stock is more than acceptable, having a solid construction, which makes it tough enough to withstand all kinds of abuse and adverse weather.

This carbine has a removable 10-round rotary magazine, similar to the one found in the Ruger 10/22 carbine. As with all magazines of this type, feeding it requires some practice and attention, it just takes some getting used to. Although they provide the advantage of a good capacity without protruding from the ventral part of the stock.

The barrel is of the sporter type, with a length of 533 mm (21), manufactured under the button rifling technique, of which SAVAGE is a real specialist. As is usual with American manufacturers, the barrel is threaded at the end with a thread cover, in this case the thread pitch is ½ - 28. As mentioned in the introduction, the acronym SR stands for Suppressor Ready.

The action is simple, with a bolt whose locking is a little less than 90°, it has a single rear locking latch, which locks the action behind the shaft and the freely rotating bolt head. As in the rest of the SAVAGE range of rifles the link between the barrel and the action is made by a nut, which provides a precise headspace.

Another element responsible for its good accuracy is its trigger system. It is called AccuTrigger, which appeared in 2002 for SAVAGE rifles. This is characterized by its ultra-short travel and break as a glass rod, clean and consistent. It has an integrated trigger safety called AccuRelease, like modern polymer pistols, making its behavior simulate a two-stroke trigger. It is user-customizable in weight from 2.5 lbs (1.13 kg) to 6 lbs (2.72 kg).

The B17 models complement the AccuRelease with a safety located behind the action, with a two-position sliding knob. This provides ambidextrous access to the safety, visually revealing a red dot when in fire condition.

The B17 FSR 17 HMR is a carbine with good accuracy and reliability that for its price is a good choice for those who want to enjoy a gun in this feeder caliber. A good tool for controlling this type of predator or simply to practice precision shooting.
