Ruger American Rimfire | .22 LR | 18″ Threaded | MFG# 8305

The Ruger American Rimfire is a full-size bolt-action rimfire rifle chambered for .22 LR, built around Ruger’s Power Bedding integral bedding block with a free-floated, cold hammer-forged barrel. This model features an 18″ threaded, satin-blued barrel, a black synthetic stock with interchangeable comb modules, a user-adjustable Ruger Marksman trigger, and a detachable flush-mounted 10-round rotary magazine. An optic such as the Vortex Diamondback 2-7×35 (well under $1,000) complements the rifle’s scope-base and threaded-barrel configuration for accurate small-bore shooting.

Well-suited to small-game hunting and rimfire training/precision target work, the American Rimfire combines modular ergonomics with a focus on accuracy and easy maintenance.
