Verdict
The Savage 64 Precision is the feature-set counterpoint to the basic Model 64. It is still an inexpensive rimfire semi-auto, and it has no centre-fire or named-family score. The chassis-style stock is enough to pull it into Medium because appearance and role have mattered in recent policy language, especially around trainer-adjacent rimfires.
