Rimfire

Woox, the rifle stock and outdoor equipment company, is officially announcing that they are making stocks for the hugely popular Ruger 10/22 family of rimfire rifles.

Extremely useful as trainers for both PRS competition and hunting, not to mention as stand-alone rifles for the NLR22 series, these rifles are gaining in popularity. The unfortunate part of this was that to get a truly perfect, size correct traine…

The Ranger 22 is an ultralight, full-sized rifle with an 18″ carbon fiber tension barrel, carbon fiber stock, aluminum receiver, and overall streamlined design that bring it in at a shockingly low weight of 5.1 pounds! We also have the engineers behind this rifle’s design to thank for building it up around Ruger 10/22 magazines and Remington 700 drop-in triggers.

I think calling the B-14R perfect would be a little pretentious but I believe it represents the absolute best bang for the buck if you want to mirror your Remington 700 in .22LR form.

The Summit 17 WSM model has a straight-pull bolt action that distinguishes it from other offerings on the market. This rifle features a stainless steel action, Ruger 6-round rotary mags, and a Volquartsen Laminated Wood Sporter Stock to name the most notable features. Also, there will be models available with either an I-fluted stainless steel barrel, or lightweight THM tension barrel (carbon fiber).

I got my hands on the new 457 Scout rifle, the “youth” model of the new 457 lineup. I’ve been using it quite a bit and I’m impressed. Its approachable price tag belies the quality of its craftsmanship and its inherent accuracy.

When a lot of you see the Performance Center TCR22, one of the first thoughts that may come to mind is “Oh great, another 10/22 clone!”. I was certainly not immune from thinking this when I saw this rifle for the first time at SHOT Show, but I’ve learned you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.

This week, I got my hands on a rifle for review that was a long time in the making. The Tikka T1X, first announced at SHOT Show 2018, has finally hit the shelves. Now despite my own giddiness about rimfires, I know that they aren’t the most popular reviews we publish. But hear me out on this one, I think you are really going to dig it. Why, pray tell, have I been anxiously awaiting a bolt action in 17 HMR?

Ruger, at long last, has taken notice of the aftermarket 10/22 world, and late last year the company’s new Custom Shop put together the 10/22 Competition Rifle. It’s a sweet shooter, and it comes with all the bells and whistles you’d expect from a premium .22 firearm.

But how does it stack up against a custom build? That’s the question I wanted to answer, so I reached out to one of my gun buddies who owns one. Before we get down to the nitty-gritty, you should know a few things about Ruger’s new Competition 10/22.
