Savage Arms announces the release of four rifle models chambered in Winchester’s new 21 Sharp rimfire cartridge. The caliber was created to maximize the rimfire shooting experience for recreational shooters and small-game hunters.

The 21 Sharp boasts several features that set it apart from its counterparts. The straight profile, non-heeled bullets enable the use of efficient aerodynamic and modern bullet shapes. The results include enhanced accuracy, particularly with lead-free projectiles. With a velocity of up to 1750 fps in 25-grain bullets, the 21 Sharp cartridge delivers impressive speed and power, and its compatibility with .22 LR magazines ensures shooters' ease of use and convenience.
"Rimfire caliber additions are rare," said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing at Savage Arms. "Adding the 21 Sharp to our proven and coveted rimfire lineup is a win for everyone involved. We’re excited to see how plinkers, precision shooters and small game hunters take advantage of the new performance capabilities of this cartridge."
One of the primary advantages of the 21 Sharp cartridge is its affordability. Priced between .22 LR and magnum rimfire ammo, hunters can enjoy the benefits of a high-performance cartridge without breaking the bank. With bullet weights ranging from 25 to 42 grains, the 21 Sharp cartridge caters to various shooting needs, including plinking, small-game hunting and target shooting.
Initial Savage rifles chambered in 21 Sharp include three Mark II models and a B Series model. The B Series F enables target shooters to fully utilize this cartridge in a modern, comfortable-shooting rifle. Its button-rifled barrel pushes precision to new levels and its ergonomic stock plus availability in left and right-hand models provides shooters with a range of options to suit individual preferences.

The Mark II F with its rugged build, the Mark II F Minimalist Green with its lightweight design and the shorter barreled Mark II FV-SR represent a diverse lineup and provide specific features for early 21 Sharp adopters to choose from.
