Savage Arms 70240 B Series .22 LR 21" 11-Round Left Hand Rifle

The Savage Arms 70240 B Series .22 LR 21" 10-Round Left Hand Rifle is purpose-built for left-handed shooters who demand ergonomic control and reliable rimfire performance. This configuration addresses a genuine gap in the market—southpaw operators in law enforcement training, civilian marksmanship, and small-game hunting require firearms with controls positioned for natural left-hand manipulation.

The B Series designation indicates Savage's commitment to accessible, dependable rifle platforms that deliver consistent accuracy without premium pricing. Built on Savage's proven short-action receiver architecture, the 70240 chambers .22 LR ammunition—a round prized for low recoil, minimal report, and cost-effectiveness in high-volume training applications. The 21-inch barrel provides optimal velocity development for .22 LR while maintaining a compact overall length of 41.7 inches, facilitating maneuverability in confined spaces and reducing fatigue during extended training sessions.

The 10-round magazine capacity balances practical firepower with quick reload discipline, essential in law enforcement and competitive shooting contexts. At 7.2 pounds, the rifle's weight distribution supports controlled sight picture and reduced shooter fatigue—critical factors during qualification cycles and tactical drills. The left-hand receiver configuration features mirrored safety, bolt release, and ejection port positioning, eliminating awkward reach-across manipulation that compromises shooting stance.
