Its 23.5″ barrel and reliable semi-auto action make it a solid choice for economical range time and small game.

Caliber, Capacity, and Practical Performance

Chambered in .22S/L/LR, this rifle accepts the three main .22 rimfire lengths, offering flexible ammunition choices. In .22 Long Rifle the detachable magazine holds 15 rounds, while it will accept 17 rounds of .22 Long and 20 rounds of .22 Short. The .22LR feeding capacity and semi-auto cycling deliver fast follow-up shots, low recoil for training new shooters, and economical practice. The 23.5″ barrel helps stabilize velocities and improves accuracy compared to shorter-tubed rimfire rifles.

Applications

Ideal uses include: general plinking and accuracy practice, youth marksmanship instruction, and small-game hunting where a quiet, low-recoil option is desirable. The multi-length chambering gives flexibility if you prefer quieter subsonic loads or higher-velocity .22LR rounds for flatter trajectories.

Condition, Collector Notes, and Value

At the listed price of $319.99, this REMINGTON 552 Speedmaster represents solid value for a very good-condition preowned rifle. Buyers should expect surface handling marks consistent with use. The autograph on the stock is a unique factor—some collectors value undocumented signatures, while others prefer factory-original finishes. If provenance matters, inspect the stock closely or request additional photos.
