Radical Firearms RF-22 Rimfire Rifle

TacSol and Volquarsten have some competition with Radical Firearms’ relatively new RF-22. Designed as an out-of-the-box accurized semiauto rimfire, the RF-22 features a Picatinny rail integrated with the receiver, a machined bolt and a match-grade threaded barrel with muzzle brake. I’m not certain why a .22LR needs a muzzle brake, but I guess it looks cool while you wait for your silencer to get its stamp of approval.

Another Improved 10/22 Enters The Ring

The RF-22 comes with a 1 MOA or better accuracy guarantee (provided you’re not using garbage ammo). Pricing is much less than some higher end accurized 10/22-esque platforms, right at $649.99 MSRP. This price is less than even some of Ruger’s 10/22 line extensions, making the RF-22 something to consider for consumers looking for an accurized platform that uses the Ruger 10/22 product ecosystem. In fact, the trigger of the RF-22 is indeed a factory Ruger BX Trigger.

Specs, Per Radical Firearms:
  • Integrated Picatinny rail CNC machined hard anodized 6065 billet aluminum receiver. Dual machined internal bolt tracks eliminate bolt canting and binding ensuring a precise receiver to bolt fit. Accepts standard and aftermarket 10/22* magazines.
  • Precision CNC machined, heat treated 17-4 barrel mounting V-Block attached via pre-torqued hex screws at 20 inch pounds.
  • Precision CNC machined 17-4 stainless steel bolt featuring a round 17-4 stainless firing pin. Equipped with a round 17-4 stainless charging handle, accepts standard and aftermarket Ruger* 10/22* recoil springs and charging handles.
  • Match grade 16” six groove, 1:16 R/H twist, .920 diameter 1/2×28 threaded 4140 CMV steel barrel. Featuring a sport chamber, with an 11 degree match crown, fitted with an RF 7075-T6 pepper pot muzzle brake. Guaranteed at one minute of angle or better accuracy.
  • Factory Ruger™ 10/22* BX-Trigger™ releases clean and crisp at 2.5 to 3.0 pounds
  • Factory Ruger™ 10/22* (10) round .22 Long Rifle BX-Magazine™

    When Radical AR rifles started showing up a few of my friends bought some and I got to vet them. There were some QC issues but nothing major and for the price they paid where a good value once gone through. For the price of the 10/22 style rifle they need to be "tight" and right.
