Who It’s For

This rifle is built for the shooter who recognizes the practical advantages of the 22WMR cartridge in a semi-automatic format. The Rossi RS22 22WMR Semi-Automatic Rimfire Rifle with Bronze Stock is an ideal choice for the landowner or rancher dealing with persistent varmint species such as groundhogs, coyotes, or raccoons, where the additional energy of the 22WMR over .22 LR provides more reliable terminal performance. It also serves the recreational shooter who wants a low-cost, low-recoil option for high-volume training, plinking, or informal competition. The adjustable sights and light weight make it accessible to new shooters building fundamentals, while the semi-automatic action keeps the experienced shooter on target with faster follow-up shots. If you operate on a property where a centerfire rifle is overkill or prohibited, the RS22 offers a legal and effective alternative that does not compromise on accuracy or velocity.
