Rimfire rifles: reviews, buying advice and shooting guides
Small calibre, serious fun. Rimfire shooting is one of the most accessible and rewarding disciplines in the sport – whether you’re a seasoned centrefire shooter looking for affordable range time, a newcomer taking your first steps into rifle shooting, or a pest controller keeping rabbit numbers in check.
Rifle Shooter’s rimfire section covers everything you need to get the most from your .22 LR, .17 HMR or .22 WMR – from in-depth rifle reviews and ammunition tests to technique advice and legal guidance on quarry species and shooting permissions.
We test rimfire rifles across every application: target shooting, small game hunting, pest control and plinking, assessing accuracy, trigger quality, build and value. Brands covered include CZ, Anschütz, Savage, Ruger, Browning and Tikka.
Affordable to shoot. Addictive to master. This is where your rimfire journey starts.
