Rossi .22 Lever Action

RugerFan

Does anyone here have any experience with this gun?

I know a few have centerfires.

No experience with their rimfire rifles. Do like my .45 Colt lever guns, though.

Thanks, Zee. 

Academy has one with synthetic stock for $279.  It’s a no sales tax weekend here.

Compare it to a Henry before you buy it. Not saying either way, but my Henry's have been nice.

Yeah Chiro, that’s what I’m thinking.  I didn’t buy the Rossi.  I’m not in any big hurry.

My .38/.357 is an exceptionally well made and accurate/reliable gun.  The polish and bluing is flawless and the stock fit is perfect!  If their .22s are anything like their centerfire guns they must be nice!

Looks very nice on pics, and Rossi is a proven brand:


If it's an all-steel rifle I'd go for it. If like the Henry it's an alloy receiver I think I'd go for the latter due to its excellent customer service and the U.S. manufacture.

I’ve held one in the past and it looked ok except for the wood. It was some kind of orange-pink.  Will admit I didn’t just study the rifle. I think I’d rather have a Henry for not much more $$
