Key Features
- Free-Float Button-Rifled Barrel: This design enhances accuracy by eliminating pressure points along the barrel, delivering consistent shot placement at typical rimfire distances.
- Threaded Muzzle: The 1/2×28 threaded muzzle accepts standard .22 suppressors or muzzle devices, reducing report and recoil for quieter shooting sessions.
- Adjustable Fiber-Optic Sights: Bright green and red fiber-optic front and rear posts allow rapid sight acquisition in varying light, even for shooters with aging eyes.
- Detachable 10-Round Box Magazine: The included magazine feeds reliably and enables quick reloads, keeping you on target longer during range practice or pest control.
- Synthetic Monte Carlo Stock: The weather-resistant stock features a raised cheekpiece and rubber buttpad, providing a stable cheek weld and reducing felt recoil from high-velocity .22 loads.
Who It’s For
The RB22 Compact is a natural fit for the new shooter, the budget-conscious plinker, and the seasoned hunter who needs a lightweight, packable .22 for small game. Its compact dimensions also suit young shooters transitioning from air rifles to centerfire training. Because it’s a bolt-action, it encourages deliberate marksmanship and is legal in most jurisdictions without magazine capacity restrictions.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Extremely lightweight (4.1 lbs); threaded barrel for suppressor use; affordable price point under $200; reliable 10-round magazine; adjustable fiber-optic sights.
- Cons: The synthetic stock has a somewhat utilitarian feel, lacking the wood grain or adjustable comb of higher-end rimfires. Some shooters may prefer a factory scope base for optics, though the iron sights are serviceable.
