The Ruger Precision Rimfire rifle in .17 HM2 with a black threaded barrel (brand part no. 8402) brings Ruger’s chassis-style Precision platform to rimfire shooters who want a high-capacity trainer for their centerfire precision rifles. Ruger threads the 18-inch barrel 1/2×28 TPI for a suppressor or muzzle device, and a 15-round BX-15 magazine feeds the action for extended range sessions between reloads. A manual thumb safety sits within easy reach, and the rifle ships without factory sights as a clean, optic-ready platform. Among chassis-style rimfire bolt action rifles, this Precision Rimfire configuration favors shooters who want an affordable, high-capacity trainer that mimics their centerfire precision rifle’s manual of arms.
