What’s Included
- Savage Arms Model 120 Series A single-shot bolt-action rifle chambered in .22 S/L/LR
This Series A variant pairs a 23.5" sporter-profile carbon steel barrel with a blued steel receiver for a traditional small-bore field rifle layout. The .22 S/L/LR chambering offers compatibility with .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 Long Rifle, and the single-shot bolt action keeps operation simple and controlled.
The rifle wears factory iron sights: a simple front blade and a barrel-mounted open leaf rear with a stepped elevator. These provide a clear, straightforward sight picture suited to the cartridge and barrel length.
Receiver details include a blued steel construction with a top that appears ungrooved (no 3/8-inch tip-off scope grooves), a small round bolt handle, and a rear striker knob. The curved stamped-metal trigger guard and period hardware align with the rifle’s 1960s production era.
The one-piece hardwood stock has a straight comb and a small pistol grip, measuring a 13.5" length of pull. A black serrated hard-plastic buttplate secured by two screws completes the classic configuration.
