Rossi RB22 22WMR Bolt-Action Rimfire Rifle
The Rossi RB22 22WMR bolt-action rimfire rifle delivers dependable performance for small-game hunters and target shooters who demand a lightweight, budget-friendly platform. Chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, this bolt-action rifle offers notably higher velocity and energy than standard .22 LR, making it a practical choice for varmint control and training. Rossi combines a classic synthetic stock with a blued barrel to produce a rugged firearm that functions reliably across varied field conditions. Whether you are equipping a new shooter or adding a capable magnum rimfire to your collection, this rifle provides solid accuracy and straightforward operation at an accessible price point.
Overview
The Rossi RB22 22WMR bolt-action rimfire rifle is engineered as an entry-level to intermediate rimfire platform optimized for the .22 Winchester Magnum cartridge. It features a 18-inch blued steel barrel fitted into a black synthetic stock, giving the rifle a total weight of approximately 4.5 pounds for easy carry during long days in the field. The bolt action cycles smoothly, feeding from a detachable box magazine that holds four rounds. Fixed iron sights are standard, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, allowing shooters to customize their sighting system. This model fills the gap between traditional .22 LR plinkers and larger centerfire varmint rifles, offering magnum-level performance without the recoil or cost of a full-power cartridge.

The Rossi RB22 22WMR bolt-action rimfire rifle is built with a simple yet robust design that prioritizes reliability and ease of maintenance. The synthetic stock resists moisture and temperature changes, preventing warping and ensuring consistent bedding. The bolt lifts and cycles with minimal effort, making follow-up shots quick. Accuracy from the barrel is consistent at typical rimfire engagement distances, and the detachable magazine allows the shooter to keep the chamber empty while carrying a loaded magazine for rapid deployment.
Who It's For
This rifle is ideal for the budget-conscious shooter who wants the added reach of .22 Magnum without stepping up to a centerfire platform.

New shooters transitioning from .22 LR will appreciate the minimal recoil and familiar manual of arms, while experienced owners will value the low maintenance and durability of the synthetic stock.
