(4 out of 5) Great deal
by from Vineyard Haven, MA on

Tiny bit of trigger work to get the best ever. Shoots super I need another. Mounting block inside should be held better.

(2 out of 5) Great looking rifle but....
by from Spring, TX on

After experiencing a few brands of ammo that would not feed I sent it off to ruger. Forums show this to be an issue here and there with this particular rifle. If possible try cycling some ammo through before leaving the ffl parking lot so you know if youre good to go. Otherwise a fine looking rifle and as always easy doing business with sportsman outdoors!

(5 out of 5) Dang good.
by from Kennesaw, GA on

This is one nice rifle. Look and feel of quality. Performs exceptionally well and is very accurate. My only issue was that I had to reassemble the magazine so that it would function. Sweet trigger. Thinking about procuring one in a larger calibre.

(4 out of 5) Great training rifle.
by from Garrett, IN on

I wanted a 22 that I could train non shooters how to shoot, without the inherent danger of them pulling the trigger again and accidentally shooting another shot as with a semi-auto. An inexpensive gun that does what I want it to.
 As I have several 10/22s I have plenty of magazines so I do not have to stop and keep reloading. Bolt action is one of the safest guns to train with. I can even chamber a round and remove the magazine for younger shooters. The composite stock, that has adjustable LOP, is not one that I have to be careful not to scratch or ding. Adjustable trigger is a really great extra on this gun.

(3 out of 5) Cheap gun
by from Akron, OH on

It's what you’d expect for the price. Not super well made. I tried 2 scopes on it and both could not adjust enough to compensate for the amount the shots wanted to go right. This being said, at about 25 yards I could make decent groupings when taking into account this flaw. I traded it for a single shot 20 gauge.

Great time-added a peep sight- 1 groups at 50yds. Great deal for the money!

(5 out of 5) First Bolt Action Rifle. Ruger quality.
by from Benton County, IN on

The Ruger American Rimfire Rifle 22LR was my first bolt action rifle purchase. As a strong supporter of Ruger, owning many Rugers over the years, I was looking into a bolt action range rifle. I researched options, reviews and opinions for several weeks of different manufactures both domestic and foreign.
 Originally I was considering a 22 WMR but I do not own any other 22 WMR firearm. Owning both a Ruger TD 10/22 and Charger TD 10/22, I have ample magazines and elected to remain in the 22LR platform. The rifle was bore sighted on the iron sights prior to range time and was spot on at 25 yards. Awaiting the arrival of a low end Tasco 6-24 Varmit scope.
 The only issue I had was one of the 10 round drum mags caused a failure to feed but the other 3 didn't. The BX-25 magazines worked perfectly but the 110 round GSG drum didn't fit in the magwell. It works perfectly in the 10/22, has issues in the Charger. Chalk it up to the head tolerances on the drum.
 Overall, delighted with both the Ruger quality and the pricing I received from Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore! Always a go to when looking!
