FAQ
Does the Savage 64 FXP come with the scope mounted?
No. The 4x15mm scope and rings are included in the box, but you’ll need to mount and zero it yourself. A basic screwdriver and a few minutes are all it takes.

It uses a 10-round detachable box magazine. Spare magazines are widely available from Savage and aftermarket sources.
Is this rifle legal for hunting small game?
Yes, in most states. The .22 LR is a common choice for squirrels, rabbits, and varmints. Always check your local regulations first.
Can I mount a different scope on this rifle?
