Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of game is the .17 HMR chambering best suited for?
The .17 HMR cartridge is optimized for small game and varmint hunting — including prairie dogs, ground squirrels, rabbits, and similarly sized animals. Its flat trajectory and high velocity make it effective at ranges out to 150 yards or more, making the Savage B17 F an excellent choice for open-field varmint control and small game pursuits.
Can I adjust the AccuTrigger on the B17 F myself?
Yes. The Savage AccuTrigger is user-adjustable within a specified pull-weight range using the included AccuTrigger adjustment tool. This allows you to fine-tune the trigger to your preference without the need for a gunsmith. The AccuTrigger also features a built-in safety mechanism that prevents the rifle from firing unless the trigger blade is fully depressed, adding an extra layer of safety alongside the top tang safety.
Is the B17 F compatible with aftermarket stocks or optics?
The Savage B17 F features a standard receiver that is compatible with a wide range of aftermarket rimfire stocks designed for the Savage B-series platform. For optics, the receiver accepts standard scope bases, and most shooters pair this rifle with a quality rimfire scope in the 4–12x magnification range to take full advantage of the .17 HMR's flat-shooting capability. Always verify fitment with your chosen aftermarket manufacturer before purchasing.
