When I Wouldn't Buy a Savage: Model 93

Comments

Dean

93r17 here and love it. Got it over 10 years ago. Its nice. with Hornady ammo. Yah the mag.... 2 ea. 5 rounders. They should have sent it a couple 10 rounders and maybe 1 five. It would be nice if the hmr had a standard mag across manufacturers.

Glenn Rawson

Bring on more 17 HMR! I LOVE my Ruger American in 17 HMR with reliable 9 and 15 round mags!

Thomas Bachtell

CZ 457: Love it in 22 LR, 22 Mag, or 17 HMR, switching barrels is fun. Awesome accuracy, beautiful, and functional, but you do pay for it.

Schmuckatelli

Mini-Sniper sounds like a fun shooting competition. Would love to see the crew out in the desert to see who was the best sniper team (Sean the TNPer, Jardine, and TD along with Papa Nutn).

Schmuckatelli

Nutn rocking the new TNP trucker's hat! I have to ask...because I know you used to review outdoor clothing...why cover up the logo on your jacket?

Cody Harring

Always appreciate the info. Will stick with my 10/22s.

Pedro

Savage having crap magazines in modern times is as common place as ruger copying someone’s idea. My 308 FCP SR uses those junk savage mags, finally they reversed course and went back to AICS pattern mags.

Bernal

CZ 457 Combo?! Interesting... Love my Mavick 88 combo.

Ryan Reese

Probably from an openly anti gun company like Patagonia or North Face. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I have the plastic 17hmr version. I’d echo you on capacity concerns and magazines on occasion that do not fully lock/click up into fire position, but those would be my only issues. It is an excellent prairie dog rifle. It’s light weight and accuracy make it a great choice when your not shooting from a bench. My money is waiting to fly out the door when they give us a quality option for a 17hmr carbine/AR style. The A17 just doesn’t have the 2nd COOL factor.

All the issues the Savage 93R had are fixed in the Savage B17......Pic rail.....threaded barrel....rotory mag with 10-25 round mags. I have both riles and love them both for accuracy but hands down the B17 for the WIN! Also some food for thought the B17 is about .6 lb heavier then the older 93R.

Interesting results that make me sad lol. I've got a very early, blued bull barrel 93R17 in left hand configuration that I enjoy a lot. It's a little heavy for what it is but it's got good accuracy. That little .17 round is a good groundhog round on the farm where over penetration can be an issue. I'm glad I got a good one back in the day. It won't be leaving my safe anytime soon 🙂

I go to quite a few Appleseed 2 day weekend events and 95% are all 22lr so I see them all. The 10-22 by far most frequently seen on the firing line. I don't own a 10-22 myself, I'll rock the savage fvsr you reviewed 11 years ago. After many years of events I'm definitely over 10k rounds through it so given wear and tear it's held up great, still wonderful accuracy. The Ruger mags are better. Even after years of using the fvsr I'll struggle with the mags in the timed events that require mag changes. The fvsr I have is ammo sensitive. I have to use either federal bulk or CCI. Anything else the ejector won't hook reliably. I tried Winchester several times because it's easily found in my area but it becomes a single shot requiring me to use a knife to dig out the spent cartridges.

Pretty rifles but total no from me. At the 19:40 mark was so painful to watch all those cycling issues, you held it together better than I would Nutn. Love the Benny Hill/clown world tuba music at the end. I have a 10/22 w/Nikon Prostaff, works for me. I just bought a Charger 10/22 pistol that I'm going to trick out. Unfortunately my commie state won't let me get the binary trigger. Good, bad or the ugly, I always dig a GRV.

Hold Fast Joe

Great review BTW, I'm happy you brought out a Ruger option at the end. I would recommend it over the savage despite my years of experience with the savage. I think Ruger did a great job with their design and it edges out ahead of the savage line. One thing you touched on but could've expanded further was bolt action is just fun! Get your buddies together to plink and it just adds to the experience! Plus it slows down rate of fire. Even 22lr is getting up there in cost now so addition of throwing the bolt after every shot helps!

Charles New

Don't love the rifle, but that AVI-8 watch is very cool.

Schmuckatelli

I paused the video on that watch and tried to figure out what it was, but I was using my phone and it was too small to make it out. Thanks for mentioning that it's an AVI-8.

Charles New

you get a decent look at 27:52 in vid. looks like a avi-8 hawker harrier 2. i think the model was 4003 and a few different colors. as usual i was buying for 80$ and now they are 300$ on ebay.

Ol Retired Fed

Best part of the review was the clown music over the frustrating feeding issues at the end. Sort of a final comment on the rifle. I love my Rugers.

I havent ever used the 93, I recently bought a new mk ii in 22lr, for small game and recreation, I like it, it's pretty accurate as of yet. And strangely enough it said not to use shorts. And the 10rd mag holds them fine, and it feeds them great and shorts them accurately. I cant say enough about it, but I'm wondering if I got lucky or if it's just a difference between 93 and mkii

Casey Jones

I’ve got an A17 (Nutn reviewed the A22 version) and it’s got all kinds of mag issues. I’ve bought 1 more mag to see if I can even get it cycle again and I’m pitching it. Savage makes great bolt actions in center fire chambering but these longer cased rim fires have poor magazines

steve garrett

the 17hmr will almost always be alot more accurate than 22 mag. as for the mag, Marlin has a similar type setup with their 17v and 17 vs series. YES it does suck and needs some finnese to put in. I think CZ 457 and tikka t1x has the market for 17hmr. I personally have switched to 17 fireball. I can actually load ammo for it as opposed to 17 HMR being out of stock. of course both suppressed. suppression and 17 caliber is the secret sauce

Kyle Zimmerman

I have a T-bolt in 17HMR that I bought based on your review of the 22 lr version. I love the little gun. It is a great plinker, and also fills the itch for straight pull rifle (a la k31). I have shot a number of critters with the thing and it is very handy. The trigger does not go super light, but plenty serviceable for hunting. It is also plenty accurate, groups are around 1.5" at 100 yards, but it does cost more than the competition so if you want one, be ready to pay a bit.

Lynn E Fite, Col (r)

The firearms industry: Kel-Tec is the most innovative: pmr, cmr, cp33, bullpups, sub2000, etc. always looking for that niche market. Marlin, is dead. It seems Ruger will be content with Ross bolt lever action. Henry dominates the lever action market. Mossberg has a great following with the shotguns, for hunting and competition. Ruger selective introduces improved products based on accurate intel: PCC’s. LCP, R. Americans, the Mark series, and of course the 10/22 heritage.

Casey Jones

I have a friend who has that CZ combo and man does that .17 barrel stack’em tight

Casey Jones

I have the A17 and although it’s pretty accurate the mag issue is atrocious. If I can get mine back cycling it’s getting sold.

Ronald RayGun

Have a 93 in .22 mag…same issues.

STLParkRanger13 (IG: Sharpshooterjon)

Savage rimfire magazines have a problematic reputation. The 64 is plagued with issues regarding the hard steel bolt shaving down the softer (aluminum?) feed lips/ramp of the factory 10-rounders over the course of a few hundred rounds, leading to feeding cycle issues. I've owned three and each one did it.

David Elkins

Gotta stick around and stay for the last minute of the video. 🤣

308dude

Yes! Absolutely hilarious with more than adequate background music 🤣

Joshua Pulliam

That was the best part! I was rolling

The Nutnfancy Project

Great choice in the that Browning T Bolt, such a great gun. Super fun in that .17 caliber too. Glad it's working for you.

Lon N

The last minute made me giggle- that is what they play for Joe instead of "Hail to the Chief".

Jerome J

These ear protections look interesting, what are they?

Jesse (Sphinx)

Clown music at end was great! haha The look you give the camera--been there!

cody white

Nutn I like the vid great content I got one sure they standard stock nothing special I didn’t care about that when I was looking for it cuz I grew up on one in 22mag in stainless steel barrel & action of my adopted grandpa Dave’s one of his favorite guns and mine god the rounds We’d crank through say a dozen old bud lights at 25-75 yards or two cans stacked on top of each other 1 shot at 25 with him. Sure mine is blued & has a 3-9 and 17hmr (his was 22mag) but it’s the memories heck my friends gave me the Nickname “sniper Cody” 🤣🤣🤣 cuz I would use it our little competitions when they’d bring their marlin 60s and Ruger 10/22s (which I love and own a few 🤣) boy fun times. It’s why I got it cuz getting behind it now days it reminds me of when I was just a kid going through 22lrs 🤣🤣🤣🤣 and 22mags

Jared Kroeger

The first fire arm I ever purchased/owned was 93r17 with a factory Bushnell 3x9 scope. The other week I picked up a Savage in .17 WSM equipped with a 8 round B-mag.
