Yes Sir, the Savage A22 M will fire on your command. Squeeze or twitch to your hearts content. I own both the A17 HMR and the A22 M. Love both of them equally well. After owning the A17 for a while, I just had to have the A22 M. Was looking for a semi-auto 22 WMR, and the A17 HMR was enough proof to me to purchase it's cousin the A22 M. The 22 mag. has always been a favorite round for me from way back in 1964.
The reliability of both my Savages has been for the most part a pleasure to shoot. When I ran cheaper ammo I had the same problems with the Savages that one would have with any other "rimfire" firearm. If the round fires you can expect progress with the next round. Purchase decent ammo, and the rifle will put a smile on your face and a hole in your wallet.
Accuracy. Same hole at 25 if you're good enough. 50yds a nickle. 100yds a quater. Time and time again. I have shot a minimum of 1200 rounds of A17's and probably 6 or 700 22mag. I'm lucky that I live in the woods, and shoot when I want.
I have aftermarket stocks on both, and I seem to have a little problem with the magazine's not wanting to "click" into it's position. Takes a little more effort to obtain that. Not Savages problem though. I haven't addressed that problem yet, and I'll get to it as soon as the barrels cool off.
Good luck with your decission and I hope this helped.
