Key Features

• Rotary Magazine: Why it matters — the 10-round rotary design feeds .22 LR reliably, reducing the chance of rim-lock that plagues many tube-fed .22s.
• AccuTrigger: Why it matters — you get a crisp, adjustable trigger pull (down to 2.5 lbs per Savage specs) that helps you shoot tighter groups without breaking the bank.
• Raised Cheekpiece: Why it matters — it aligns your eye naturally with the included scope or iron sights, making it easier for new shooters and smaller-framed family members to get a consistent sight picture.
• Last-Round Bolt Hold-Open: Why it matters — when the magazine runs dry, the bolt stays back, so you know exactly when to reload and don’t accidentally dry-fire the rifle.
• Free-Floating Barrel: Why it matters — the barrel doesn’t touch the stock, which improves accuracy by reducing pressure points that can throw off your point of impact.

Who It’s For

This rifle is perfect for the first-time gun buyer looking for an affordable, low-recoil way to learn marksmanship. It’s also a smart choice for families who want a safe, fun plinker for the range or a small-game gun for rabbits and squirrels. Experienced shooters will appreciate the accuracy-per-dollar ratio for informal target practice.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Low price, reliable rotary magazine, good trigger out of the box, lightweight (4.5 lbs), easy to clean, and comes with a 10-round magazine.
• Cons: The synthetic stock feels a bit hollow compared to wood options, and the iron sights are basic — you’ll likely want to mount a red dot or scope for best accuracy. Also, the bolt can be stiff for smaller hands when charging the first round.

FAQ

What type of ammunition does the Savage 64 use?

It uses standard .22 Long Rifle (LR) ammunition. High-velocity rounds (like CCI Mini-Mags) tend to cycle most reliably, but it will run standard-velocity loads too after a short break-in.

Does this rifle come with a scope?

No, the Savage 64 Flag comes with basic iron sights. The receiver is grooved for .22 rings, so you can easily mount a scope or red dot. Many customers add a 4x rimfire scope for under $50.

Is this a good rifle for a child or small adult?

Yes. The stock has a shorter length of pull than many full-size rifles, and the lightweight 4.5-lb design makes it manageable for younger or smaller shooters. The low recoil also helps build confidence.

How do I clean the Savage 64?

Field strip by removing the bolt and pulling the trigger group. Clean the barrel from the breech end using a .22-caliber cleaning rod and solvent. The rotary magazine can be disassembled for cleaning if needed — just push the center button and rotate the floorplate.
