I have got a Bmag. B23 sent pics of his rig and he had good luck with it, so I cloned it some what. Just got it in the stock and have not shot it as of yet.
Got one of the Bushnell scopes made for the 17wsm,the hold dots show promise and seem to be correct.
The Bmag, to me, seems to have been a hurried project. Savage had other actions that would have worked better (center fire) I think, the model 25 comes to mind.
I have not a clue where or what they came up with on this action. I believe it may be more price point inclined than design. Rugers 77/22 is stout enough to take the pressures where as savage has a some what weaker system for theirs.
I may at some point rebarrel this and see what happens. The trigger looks like somthing a kid with an erector set built.
I like the cartridge from my initial range visits. As we all well know a rimfire is a finicky cartridge if there ever was one.
