Ruger 8351 American Rimfire Full Size 22 LR 10+1 18″ Satin Stainless Steel Threaded Barrel & Receiver w/Scope Rail, Black Fixed Synthetic Stock, Right Hand

The Ruger 8351 American Rimfire Full Size 22 LR is a precision .22 LR bolt-action built on Ruger’s patent-pending Power Bedding system—an integral bedding block that locks the receiver in place and free-floats the cold hammer-forged barrel. This satin stainless steel threaded barrel model with scope rail and black synthetic stock delivers sub-MOA accuracy straight from the box, in a right-hand configuration that serious rimfire shooters can trust at the range or in the field.

Key Features

• Power Bedding Integral Bedding Block – Why it matters: This patent-pending system positively locates the receiver and free-floats the barrel, eliminating bedding inconsistencies that degrade accuracy. You get repeatable sub-MOA groups shot after shot.
• Cold Hammer-Forged Barrel – Why it matters: The ultra-precise rifling from the hammer-forging process delivers exceptional accuracy and longevity, plus it’s easier to clean than cut-rifled barrels. Expect consistent performance even after thousands of rounds.
• Ruger Marksman Adjustable Trigger – Why it matters: The trigger pull is user-adjustable from 2.25 to 5.0 pounds, letting you dial in a crisp break for precision shooting. No aftermarket trigger needed.
• Threaded Barrel (1/2×28 TPI) – Why it matters: The 18-inch threaded barrel allows direct mounting of a suppressor or muzzle device without adapters, making it suppressor-ready out of the box.
• Integrated 3/8″ Rimfire Scope Base – Why it matters: The receiver is machined with a 3/8″ dovetail and also drilled and tapped for scope mounts, giving you flexibility to run rings or a rail. Included Williams fire sights offer a backup.

Who It’s For

This rifle is built for the precision rimfire shooter who wants a factory-accurate .22 LR for target shooting, small-game hunting, or training. It’s also ideal for shooters transitioning from a 10/22 to a bolt-action platform who want the same magazine compatibility and reliability.

Pros / Cons

• Pros: Sub-MOA accuracy out of the box; suppressor-ready threaded barrel; adjustable trigger; accepts 10/22 magazines; Power Bedding system free-floats barrel; satin stainless finish resists corrosion.
• Cons: The synthetic stock is functional but lacks the adjustability of a chassis system; the action can feel a bit stiff until broken in (common with new Ruger rimfires).
