Winchester Wildcat Midnight SR 22LR 16.5″ | 10-Round

The Winchester Wildcat Midnight SR is a striker-fired .22 LR semi-automatic rifle that combines modern polymers and design to reduce weight while retaining rimfire reliability. It uses a hemispherical firing pin and a rotary polymer magazine for dependable function with .22 LR ammunition. The 16.5" threaded barrel and integral Picatinny top rail make the Wildcat suppressor-ready and easy to equip with optics; a good pairing under $1000 is the Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 for general small-game hunting and range training.

The Wildcat’s striker-fired mechanism provides a lighter, consistent trigger feel compared with traditional rimfire hammer systems, and a bolt stop locks the bolt back after the last round. The design emphasis on polymers and modular features yields a lightweight rifle suited to extended range sessions and small-game field use.
