The Rascal Minimalist is built for accuracy and adaptability, thanks to a laminate stock, threaded (1/2-28) barrel, and modern aesthetics. Like the standard Rascal, the single-shot rifle cocks by lifting the bolt and unloads easily; without pulling the trigger. The design also builds superior shooting skills thanks to full-size rifle features, including Savage's user-adjustable AccuTrigger system. The platform offers far better safety, functionality, and accuracy than competing designs.
