The Savage Arms 94700 93 FVSS Full Size 22 WMR is a tack-driving varmint rifle built around the legendary AccuTrigger. With a 21-inch matte heavy barrel, a matte drilled & tapped stainless steel receiver, and a matte black fixed synthetic stock, this right-handed bolt action delivers sub-MOA accuracy right out of the box. It’s a reliable, no-nonsense rimfire that punches above its weight class for hunting and plinking.

Key Features
- AccuTrigger – Adjustable from 2.5 lbs to 6 lbs, this trigger gives you a crisp, creep-free break that helps you stay on target shot after shot.
- 21-Inch Matte Heavy Barrel – The heavy contour soaks up heat and vibration, keeping your groups tight even during rapid strings at the range.
- Drilled & Tapped Stainless Steel Receiver – Ready for scope mounts right from the factory, saving you a trip to the gunsmith and getting you on glass faster.
- Detachable Box Magazine – Holds 5+1 rounds of .22 WMR and loads quickly, so you spend less time fumbling and more time shooting.
- Two-Position Safety – Located right behind the bolt handle, it’s easy to flick off with your thumb without breaking your firing grip.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for the recreational shooter who wants a flat-shooting .22 WMR for varmint control, small-game hunting, or just ringing steel at the range. First-time buyers will appreciate the user-friendly AccuTrigger and the affordable price point. It’s also a solid pick for anyone looking to step up from .22 LR without jumping to a centerfire.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Adjustable AccuTrigger outshines most factory triggers at this price. The heavy barrel keeps groups consistent. Stainless steel resists rust in wet weather. Detachable magazine makes reloading quick. Drilled and tapped receiver saves on gunsmithing costs.
- Cons: The fixed synthetic stock is functional but lacks the adjustability of a chassis system. The two-position safety can feel a bit stiff out of the box—it loosens up after a few range sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What scope mounts do I need for the Savage 93 FVSS?
The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Savage rimfire bases (like the Savage #16 or Weaver #46M). We recommend a set of low-profile rings for a 1-inch tube scope to keep the centerline low.
Is the AccuTrigger safe for a beginner?
Yes. The AccuTrigger has a built-in safety blade that prevents the trigger from firing unless the blade is fully depressed. It’s user-adjustable, but we recommend starting at the factory setting (around 3.5 lbs) until you’re comfortable.
Can I use .22 LR ammo in this .22 WMR rifle?
No. .22 WMR (Winchester Magnum Rimfire) is a different cartridge with a larger case diameter. Using .22 LR can cause dangerous pressure issues. Stick to .22 WMR only.
Does the stock have sling swivel studs?
Yes, the matte black synthetic stock comes with factory-installed sling swivel studs, making it easy to attach a bipod or sling for hunting.
