The HOWA CITADEL TRAKR delivers a compact, accurate bolt-action option for shooters who value low recoil, reliable cycling, and threaded-barrel versatility. Its single-purpose design and threaded 21″ barrel make it a practical choice for backyard patterning, small-game hunting, and focused defensive training sessions.

HOWA CITADEL TRAKR is chambered in .22 WMR and offered in a Black finish with a 21″ threaded barrel (TB), giving the platform a useful balance of ballistic performance and accessory flexibility. Priced at $171.99, this bolt-action rifle is positioned as an affordable entry for anyone wanting a precision-oriented rimfire that accepts muzzle devices or suppressors via its threaded muzzle.

Why the .22 WMR matters for tactical-minded shooters

The .22 WMR cartridge bridges the gap between .22 LR and centerfire varmint rounds. It offers higher velocity and energy than .22 LR, improved terminal consistency for small-game work, and more useful trajectory out to moderate ranges. For tactical training, .22 WMR allows shooters to practice bolt manipulation, trigger control, and marksmanship fundamentals with reduced recoil and ammunition cost compared to centerfire calibers.

Key features and field applications

Bolt-action reliability

The bolt-action platform of the HOWA CITADEL TRAKR emphasizes consistent lock-up and repeatable headspacing—critical for tight groups. The simple, robust design minimizes moving parts and makes maintenance straightforward in field conditions.

21″ threaded barrel (TB)

The 21″ threaded barrel provides two distinct advantages: increased sight radius and compatibility with a wide range of muzzle devices. Whether you fit a muzzle brake for reduced impulse or attach a suppressor for quieter range work, the threaded barrel expands the rifle’s utility.
