Rossi RS22 .22 WMR Rimfire Rifle with Tan Stock

The Rossi RS22 .22 WMR Rimfire Rifle with Tan Stock delivers a lightweight, precision-oriented platform for shooters who demand reliability in a rimfire package. Chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (WMR), this semi-automatic rifle offers substantially more energy and flatter trajectory than standard .22 LR, making it a versatile choice for small game hunting, pest control, and target practice. Built by Rossi, a brand with a longstanding reputation for producing affordable and functional firearms, the RS22 pairs modern ergonomics with proven mechanical design. The tan synthetic stock provides durable weather resistance and a distinctive tactical aesthetic suitable for field use.

Overview

The Rossi RS22 .22 WMR Rimfire Rifle with Tan Stock is a semi-automatic rimfire rifle engineered for shooters who want enhanced terminal performance without stepping up to centerfire calibers. The .22 WMR cartridge delivers velocities exceeding 2000 feet per second from an 18-inch barrel, offering effective range out to 150 yards. The rifle operates on a blowback action that cycles reliably with high-velocity magnum ammunition. The tan synthetic stock features an ergonomic pistol grip, textured forend, and sling swivel studs for added utility. This model represents an accessible entry point into magnum rimfire shooting, combining Rossi’s manufacturing efficiency with user-focused design details.

Features & Specs

The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, enabling optical sight installation for precision shooting. The cross-bolt safety provides a positive manual engagement, and the 10-round detachable magazine facilitates rapid reloading.

Who It Is For

The Rossi RS22 .22 WMR Rimfire Rifle with Tan Stock is designed for three primary user groups: small game hunters seeking a lightweight magnum rimfire for squirrel, rabbit, and varmint populations; target shooters who want the ballistic advantage of .22 WMR for steel plates and paper beyond typical .22 LR distances; and budget-conscious shooters who require a functional magnum platform without the price premium of higher-end imports. The rifle is also suitable for new shooters transitioning from .22 LR to a more capable rimfire cartridge, as the recoil remains manageable while the report and muzzle energy increase significantly. The tan stock suits users who operate in varied environments where camouflage or non-reflective finishes are advantageous.

• Small game hunters requiring flat trajectory and reliable expansion at extended rimfire ranges
• Plinkers and target shooters who prefer magnum rimfire ballistics for reactive steel and precision drills
• First-time magnum rimfire buyers seeking an affordable entry point with standard features
• Shooters who value lightweight, weather-resistant synthetic stocks for all-conditions carry
