[Discussion] Savage Arms Launches REVEL Tactical Lever-Action Rimfire in Three Chamberings

Three Rimfire Models

Savage Arms has expanded its REVEL lever-action rimfire series with the REVEL Tactical, joining the REVEL Classic and REVEL DLX. Introduced on October 8, 2026, the full-size, right-handed rifle combines a traditional lever action with a threaded barrel, optics rail, and accessory-mounting system.

The REVEL Tactical is available in three chamberings. The .22 LR model has a 12-round capacity and an MSRP of $629. The .22 WMR and .17 HMR versions each hold nine rounds and are priced at $659.

All three configurations have an 18-inch barrel, black receiver, and black synthetic stock.

Stock and Accessory Support

The rifle uses an MDT Tactical stock with pronounced grip surfaces and a redesigned pistol grip. A clip-on cheek riser provides interchangeable comb height, allowing the stock to accommodate different shooters and optic heights.

A rigid, one-piece Picatinny rail supports optic mounting. M-LOK slots on the fore-end provide attachment points for compatible accessories.

Savage says the design retains the REVEL series’ smooth-cycling lever action while adding features intended for range use, recreational shooting and small-game hunting.

Barrel and Sights

Each model has an 18-inch medium-profile barrel with a 1/2x28 threaded muzzle for fitting a suppressor or other compatible muzzle device.

The rifle also includes adjustable iron sights, including a hooded front sight, allowing it to be used without an added optic. Its simple takedown system is intended to make field maintenance and transport easier.

“The REVEL Tactical represents the next evolution of our REVEL platform, combining the timeless appeal of a lever-action rifle with the modern features today’s shooters demand,” said Beth Shimanski, Savage Arms vice president of marketing.
