Technical Specifications

Key Features – Engineered for Precision

Tensioned Barrel – Accuracy Without the Weight

The innovative cold hammer-forged barrel is tensioned inside an aluminum alloy sleeve, providing the rigidity of a heavy bull barrel while dramatically reducing weight . This tensioned barrel technology, proven in the Ruger 22/45 Lite, ensures exceptional accuracy without the 8-pound heft of traditional target rifles . The 1/2″-28 threaded muzzle accepts a schalldämpfer or other muzzle devices, with a thread cap included when not in use .

BX-Trigger™ – Light, Crisp, and Consistent

The BX-Trigger™ is a game-changer for the 10/22 platform. With a light, crisp pull of 2.5 to 3 pounds, minimal overtravel, and a positive reset, this trigger delivers performance that rivals aftermarket upgrades . The glass-filled polymer trigger housing assembly is precision-made for improved tolerances and durability .

Laminate Thumbhole Stock – Comfort and Stability

The black laminate thumbhole stock is both functional and striking. Its ambidextrous design allows for a comfortable grip for all shooters, and the raised comb aligns your eye perfectly with a mounted optic .

Legendary 10/22 Action – Over 5 Million Sold

Scope Ready – No Iron Sights
