They make you slow down and make every round count especially one like the Rascal that does not have a magazine. The MSRP on the Rascal is under $200 but even though it is small, it shoots like a much more expensive rifle.\u00a0 One of the great things about the Rascal is the trigger.\u00a0 Savage put on of their Accu Triggers on the Rascal, the same trigger that is on their &#8220;adult&#8221; guns.\u00a0 I have a bit of trigger time on a Rascal and you can check out my daughters review of her&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/11-year-olds-review-savage-rascal\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"5-rimfires-for-the-kid-on-your-christmas-list\" title=\"5 Rimfires For The Kid On Your Christmas List\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.\u00a0 These are great little rifles with an even greater trigger.<\/p>\n<p>[full_width]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_48592\" style=\"width: 835px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Ruger-compact.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"5-rimfires-for-the-kid-on-your-christmas-list\" title=\"5 Rimfires For The Kid On Your Christmas List\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48592\" title=\"5 Rimfires For The Kid On Your Christmas List\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48592\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Ruger-compact.jpg\" alt=\"There are more versions of the 10-22 than there are stars in the sky, so finding the perfect one should be easy.\" width=\"825\" height=\"147\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Ruger-compact.jpg 825w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Ruger-compact-150x27.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Ruger-compact-400x71.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 825px) 100vw, 825px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-48592\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">There are more versions of the 10-22 than there are stars in the sky, so finding the perfect one should be easy.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/full_width]<\/p>\n<h2>The Ruger 10-22<\/h2>\n<p>Reader more at Ruger: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruger.com\/products\/1022Compact\/models.html\" campaign=\"Ruger\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Ruger 10-22<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Buy one on GunsAmerica: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/Search.aspx?T=10-22\" campaign=\"Ruger\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/Search.aspx?T=10-22<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t write a best .22 list without having a Ruger 10-22 on it.\u00a0 Ruger has been making the auto loader for over 50 years now.\u00a0 They come in all shapes and sizes from the classic wood stocked to a tricked out tactical one.\u00a0 For this list, geared towards guns for younger shooters, the Ruger 10-22 Compact is the winner.\u00a0 It has a slightly shorter length of pull, 12.75&#8243; vs 13.5&#8243; and a 16&#8243; barrel.\u00a0 The compact model is also a bit lighter than other 10-22s it weighs in at 4.5 lbs.\u00a0 Another great feature on the Compact for learning shooters is the fiber optic sights that are very easy to see.\u00a0 The MSRP on the Ruger 10-22 Compact is $339.<\/p>\n<p>[full_width]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_48182\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Henry-Rimfire-26.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"5-rimfires-for-the-kid-on-your-christmas-list\" title=\"5 Rimfires For The Kid On Your Christmas List\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48182\" title=\"5 Rimfires For The Kid On Your Christmas List\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48182\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Henry-Rimfire-26.jpg\" alt=\"The Henry will even make you feel like a kid.
