Jeff Quinn ( [ Ссылка ] ) tests the Savage B-MAG 17 Winchester Super Magnum Rimfire Bolt-Action Rifle.
The Savage B-MAG rifle offers shooters a varmint cartridge that bridges the gap between the rimfire 17 HMR and the new centerfire 17 Hornet cartridges, with performance that is closer to the Hornet, but with ammunition cost that is closer to the HMR. The cost to get into the game is also much less, with the new B-MAG rifle selling for $236 US less than Savage's lowest priced 17 Hornet rifle. Put another way, you can buy the new B-MAG and about 850 rounds of 17 WSM ammunition for the cost of just the 17 Hornet rifle, and in doing so give up very little in practical performance, compared to the Hornet. Of course, if you are a hand loader, you can save quite a bit of money by reloading the Hornet cases, but the tradeoff is in time spent doing so. The 17 WSM is the flattest-shooting, highest-velocity commercial rimfire cartridge ever built, and offers rimfire shooters a lot of performance for the money spent.
The Savage B-MAG bolt-action rifle has a suggested retail price, as of the date of this review, of only $349 US.
