Ruger 10/22 Carbine | .22 LR | 16.12″ | 31197

The Ruger 10/22 Carbine (model 31197) pairs the long-established 10/22 rotary action with a Hogue OverMolded synthetic stock and a sighted, cold hammer-forged bull barrel that is factory-threaded for muzzle accessories. It ships with a factory-installed Picatinny rail and adjustable ghost-ring rear sight for easy optics mounting and co-witness options. This configuration is well suited for recreational plinking and small-game hunting where light .22 LR cartridges and a stable, low-recoil platform are desired. Consider pairing this carbine with a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 (priced under $1000) for a versatile optic that covers close to moderate-range work effectively.
