Tactical Solutions ATE2GMGBHBLK X-Ring VR Gen2 22 LR Gun Metal Gray Barrel & Receiver, Hogue OverMolded Black Synthetic Stock

The Tactical Solutions ATE2GMGBHBLK X-Ring VR Gen2 22 LR Gun Metal Gray Barrel & Receiver, Hogue OverMolded Black Synthetic Stock is a complete, drop-in ready precision rimfire platform built for shooters who demand sub-MOA consistency without the weight of a full-size centerfire rig. This Gen2 iteration refines the X-Ring VR action with an aluminum receiver and fluted barrel assembly, paired with a Hogue OverMolded stock that locks your grip in place. It’s a factory-built solution for steel ringing, squirrel hunting, or training on a budget—no smithing required.

Key Features

• Fluted Barrel & Aluminum Receiver — WHY IT MATTERS: The fluting reduces barrel weight while increasing surface area for heat dissipation, keeping your shots consistent during rapid strings; the aluminum receiver shaves ounces without sacrificing rigidity.
• Hogue OverMolded Stock — WHY IT MATTERS: The rubberized texture eliminates slip in wet or gloved conditions, and the soft palm swell fills your hand for a repeatable cheek weld that translates to tighter groups.
• Gen2 X-Ring VR Action — WHY IT MATTERS: The VR (vertical receiver) design improves bolt travel feel and reduces stacking friction, giving you a smoother cycling action that maintains accuracy across a full magazine.
• Gun Metal Gray Cerakote Finish — WHY IT MATTERS: This corrosion-resistant coating holds up to range bag abrasion and field exposure, keeping the receiver looking fresh after hundreds of rounds.
• Drop-In Fitment — WHY IT MATTERS: No gunsmithing needed—mount a scope, load the mag, and you’re ringing steel at 100 yards in under 10 minutes.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the long-range shooter who wants a trainer that mimics their centerfire rifle’s ergonomics without the cost of .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor. It’s also for the competitor who needs a reliable rimfire for NRL22 or Steel Challenge base classes. If you’re a hunter after small game with a lightweight carry, this setup fits.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: Sub-MOA accuracy out of the box with quality match ammo—tested to 1/2 MOA at 50 yards per Tactical Solutions specs.
• Pro: Weight under 4.5 lbs makes it ideal for all-day carry or bagged positional shooting.
• Con: The Hogue OverMolded stock is not adjustable for length of pull or cheek riser—taller shooters may need a spacer kit or aftermarket stock.
• Con: The fluted barrel is not threaded for a suppressor, limiting quiet shooting options without an adapter.
