The Ruger American Rimfire rifle in .22 LR with a 22-inch satin blued barrel (brand part no. 8301) is a full-size rimfire built for accurate plinking, training, and small-game hunting. Ruger cuts the barrel to a 1:16-inch right-hand twist rate, and a detachable magazine feeds the 10+1 capacity for extended range sessions. Williams fiber optic front sights pair with an adjustable rear sight for fast, precise aiming without an optic, and a tang safety keeps the control within easy reach of the shooting hand. A black synthetic stock pairs with the satin blued metal for a durable, easy-care finish. Among full-size bolt action rifles, this American Rimfire configuration favors shooters who want a longer barrel for a more traditional feel and slightly increased velocity.
