If you’re looking for a .22 WMR bolt gun that shoots tighter than a drum and looks good doing it, the Savage 93BRJ .22 WMR bolt rifle, 21″ barrel, 5-rd is your huckleberry. I’ve run this exact model on steel out to 200 yards, and the heavy spiral-fluted barrel keeps groups consistent even when you’re burning through a box of Hornady V-Max. It comes with Savage’s AccuTrigger out of the box, so you can dial in the pull weight without a gunsmith, and the Royal Jacaranda laminate stock gives it a custom look that stands out in any gun rack.

Key Features
- Heavy Spiral-Fluted Barrel: The 21-inch carbon steel barrel is fluted to reduce weight without sacrificing stiffness — that means less barrel whip and more consistent accuracy shot after shot.
- Savage AccuTrigger: Adjustable from about 2.5 to 6 pounds, this trigger breaks clean with zero creep. You can tune it to your preference in seconds using the included tool, so there’s no need to send it off to a smith.
- Royal Jacaranda Laminate Monte Carlo Stock: Multi-color laminate not only looks sharp but resists warping from moisture. The Monte Carlo cheekpiece helps you get a solid cheek weld for scope use, and the recoil pad makes plinking all day comfortable.
- Detachable 5-Round Magazine: The box magazine feeds .22 WMR reliably and drops free for quick reloads. It’s also easy to load by hand without fighting stiff springs.
- Scope Bases Included: The receiver is drilled and tapped, and Savage includes a set of bases so you can mount your own rings and optic right away. No hunting for aftermarket parts.
Who It’s For
The 93BRJ is built for the recreational shooter who wants a .22 WMR that can reach out farther than a standard .22 LR. It’s also a great pick for first-time varmint hunters who need a lightweight, accurate rifle for coyotes or groundhogs. If you’re a plinker who appreciates a crisp trigger and a barrel that stays cool under fire, this Savage will earn a spot in your safe.
Pros / Cons
- Pro: AccuTrigger is a legit upgrade — you can set it light enough for bench shooting but still safe for field carry.
- Pro: The spiral fluting looks aggressive and actually helps with heat dissipation during rapid strings.
- Pro: Laminate stock is rock solid and doesn’t flex like cheap synthetic stocks.
- Con: The detachable magazine can be a little stiff to seat when fully loaded — give it a firm slap and you’re good.
- Con: No iron sights are included, so you’ll need a scope to shoot it. Factor that into your budget.

FAQ
What scope rings fit the Savage 93BRJ?
The receiver uses a dovetail base (3/8″ rimfire groove), so you’ll need rings designed for rimfire dovetails — standard 3/8″ or 11mm rings work. Savage includes bases, but you can also use Weaver-style adapters if you prefer.
Can I use .22 LR in this rifle?
No — the 93BRJ is chambered exclusively for .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (.22 WMR). The chamber is longer and the pressure is higher than .22 LR, so you cannot safely fire .22 LR or .22 Short in it.
Is the AccuTrigger adjustable without tools?
You’ll need the small hex key that comes with the rifle (or a 1/16″ hex wrench). It’s a simple turn of the adjustment screw inside the trigger housing — just follow the manual to avoid going below the safe minimum pull weight.
Does the stock have sling swivel studs?
Yes, the Monte Carlo laminate stock comes with two factory-installed swivel studs — one on the forend and one on the buttstock. You can mount a bipod or a sling without drilling anything.
