Precision .22LR semi-automatic rifles remain a cornerstone for range training, plinking, and introducing new shooters to rifles because they combine controllable recoil, low-cost ammunition, and repeatable accuracy. A platform built on classic engineering but updated with modern coatings and optics gives shooters a reliable tool for hours of target work.

COLT “The Colteer 4-22” is a used, excellent-condition example that targets range shooters who want dependable .22LR performance with practical upgrades. This rifle holds 15 rounds in the tube, has been cerakoted in armor black for durable corrosion resistance, and comes equipped with a Weaver .22 tip-off scope. The wood shows no cracks and only minor knicks consistent with careful use.

Design and real-world features

The COLT “The Colteer 4-22” blends a familiar lever/slide ergonomics with modern protective finishes. The cerakoted armor black finish reduces glare and protects metal surfaces from handling and range solvents. The 15-round tube capacity keeps you on target longer between reloads, ideal for sustained drills and group practice sessions.

Optics and handling

Outfitted with a Weaver .22 tip-off scope, this rifle provides a simple, reliable optic solution tuned for .22LR trajectories. Tip-off mounts allow easy removal for storage or iron-sight transitions. The combination of low recoil and the scope makes follow-up shots fast and predictable—important traits for marksmanship training.

Why .22LR works for range shooters

.22LR is inexpensive, widely available, and produces minimal recoil and noise compared with centerfire cartridges. For range-focused work—sight-in procedures, cadence drills, and basic marksmanship instruction—the .22LR offers immediate feedback without developing bad habits from heavy recoil. That makes the COLT “The Colteer 4-22” well-suited for training, precision rimfire competition, and recreational shooting.

Priced at $729.99, this used, excellent-condition COLT package represents an accessible entry to a high-quality rimfire platform from a respected brand. The listing notes minor cosmetic knicks in the wood but no structural damage, which is consistent with a rifle that has been cared for and regularly maintained.
