The market for affordable, trainer-friendly tactical rifles continues to grow, and shooters who want AR-style ergonomics with rimfire economy have a strong option that balances handling, reliability, and price. Whether you’re working on fundamentals at the range, teaching a new shooter, or taking small game, a platform that mimics centerfire feel without centerfire cost is a practical addition to any kit.

MOSSBERG 715T

The MOSSBERG 715T is a .22LR semi-auto built to deliver a tactical silhouette with rimfire practicality. It ships with a matte black finish, a 10-round magazine, an unthreaded barrel, adjustable sights, and sling mounts installed. At $329.99, it’s positioned as an economical trainer or backyard range rifle that still offers the look and controls shooters expect from modern tactical designs.

Design and key features

The 715T’s AR-style chassis provides familiar ergonomics—flat-top receiver, pistol grip geometry, and accessory compatibility—so transitioning between platforms is intuitive. The adjustable sights permit precise zeroing for rimfire distances while the unthreaded muzzle keeps the profile clean; aftermarket barrel work or muzzle devices would require a gunsmith if threading is desired. The installed sling mounts make carry and transition drills straightforward at the range or in the field.
