Recognizing the need for rifles appropriately scaled for boys and girls, so-called youth models are still being produced. One such model is the reintroduced Stevens Favorite Model 30G. It has a falling block action, and its 21-inch barrel can be obtained in 22 LR, 22 WMR, and 17 HMR calibers. Most of the youth models available today are single-shot boltaction rifles that measure approximately 32 to 34 inches in length, have a length of pull of about 12 inches, and weigh 3.5 to 4.5 pounds. Historically a leader in the production of youth rifles, Savage has what is perhaps the most extensive line currently available. The Cub is a bolt-action single-shot that is 33 inches long, has a 16 1/8-inch barrel, and weighs 3.3 pounds. With a suggested price of $152, it has a hardwood stock and is sold with a rear peep sight. Savage also offers the Mark I as a full size rifle in several variations. The suggested price is approximately $180. The youth version, known as the Savage Mark I-G, measures 39.5 inches in length, has a 20.75-inch barrel, weighs 5.5 pounds, and has a suggested price of $147. A smooth bore version is available for shooting shot cartridges.
