Key Features and Tactical Benefits

10″ Threaded Barrel

The 10″ threaded barrel gives flexibility for adding muzzle devices or a legal suppressor where permitted. A shorter barrel keeps the overall package compact for transport and maneuvering while still providing a stable sight radius for precision shooting with the red dot.

Take-Down Design & Portability

Take-down capability makes storage and travel simpler. Field-stripping and reassembly are straightforward, which is ideal for training sessions or taking the firearm to a remote range without a full-length case.

Sight Package and Stability

Included with a Burris XTS-135 red dot and a bipod, this RUGER 22 CHARGER arrives ready for accuracy work from bench or prone positions. The Burris optic is a practical, low-profile choice for fast target acquisition and fine hold adjustments on small targets at typical .22 LR ranges.

Who Should Consider This Rifle

Competitive rimfire shooters, trainers, and budget-conscious enthusiasts will appreciate the RUGER 22 CHARGER’s combination of optics, bipod, threaded barrel, and take-down convenience. The .22 Long Rifle cartridge makes it a great option for learning fundamentals, working on trigger control, and running high-volume practice with minimal recoil and ammo expense.
