Rossi RS22 22WMR Semi-Automatic Rimfire Rifle With Bronze Stock

Overview

If you are in the market for a lightweight, reliable rimfire that punches above its weight class, the Rossi RS22 22WMR semi-automatic rimfire rifle with bronze stock deserves a hard look. Chambered in the zippy .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (22 WMR), this rifle gives you significantly more energy and flatter trajectory than a standard .22 LR, while keeping recoil mild enough for a full afternoon at the range. The bronze stock is not just a cosmetic upgrade — it offers a durable, weather-resistant finish that stands up to sweat, rain, and rough handling. Whether you are plinking steel, hunting small game, or teaching a new shooter the ropes, the RS22 delivers a smooth, semi-auto action without breaking the bank.

Features & Specs

Rossi designed the RS22 to be a no-nonsense tool, and the specs reflect that philosophy. The barrel is button-rifled for consistent accuracy, and the synthetic bronze stock keeps the overall weight under five pounds. Here is what you can expect out of the box:

• Chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (22 WMR) with a 10-round detachable magazine
• 18-inch barrel with a 1:16 twist rate, optimized for standard 40-grain 22 WMR loads
• Adjustable rear sight and post front sight, plus an 11mm dovetail receiver for adding a red dot or scope
• Manual safety and bolt hold-open device for safe handling and clear chamber checks

The rossi rs22 22wmr semi-automatic rimfire rifle with bronze stock uses a simple blowback action that has proven reliable with both high-velocity and standard-velocity 22 WMR ammunition. Overall length is just 37 inches, making it easy to maneuver in a blind or pack into the backcountry.

Who It’s For

This rifle is built for shooters who want the extra reach and punch of 22 WMR without moving up to a centerfire cartridge. Hunters targeting rabbits, squirrel, or coyotes will appreciate that the RS22 cycles fast for follow-up shots and hits hard at 100 yards. Plinkers and budget-minded enthusiasts will like the low cost of 22 WMR ammunition compared to 223 or 22-250, and the bronze stock means you can take it out in wet weather without worrying about warped wood. If you are introducing a younger or smaller-framed shooter to semi-autos, the lightweight build and mild report make the rossi rs22 22wmr semi-automatic rimfire rifle with bronze stock an excellent training platform. Just keep in mind that 22 WMR is louder than 22 LR, so ear protection is a must.
