THANK YOU! For showing a table of simple, exact target result data for different ammos at distance. Almost no one else does this, it's extremely useful.
lol… results will vary in your rifle… his results will not be indicative of your expectations. Even if you manage to replicate the environment… BUT it is a good way to collect data for your rifle to help determine your own results…. Why no one else mentioned this three years later and with 40 some likes is laughable. hopefully you figured that out by now…
Loving the updates and different ammo testing and realistic groups
The best review I have seen on youtube. You really put the work into this. Thank You!
I love the data you put together. Thanks for taking the time to do that.
GREAT review, thanks for taking the time to do this
This is very very helpful, you're findings on the CCI standard suppressed and un suppressed pretty much confirm what I have achieved. Well done Sir. "Same rifle of course"
Precision training rifle. Exactly what it is! Learning the basics of ballistic and practice in the field. It's the perfect tool for that. Also, thanks for sharing with us this review. I found it very informative, relevant and reliable (witch is not the case of the other reviews that I saw).
I just picked up one for my son in FDE. Can’t wait to get him out to the range and start stretching things a bit. Great review.
Nice work on the spreadsheet!! I like it!!
I just bought one. TY. Great shooting.
Hell yeah. I love my Burris Fullfield E1 on my bolt action 22. Solid review. Subbed
Excellent video, I have the Rory in 22 magnum. I have shot it but not like this. I will be testing the limits more this Spring now that I see what your LR is capable of. Thanks again one of the better video I seen that explains how to work the elevation with the right glass.
Nice review thanks for the video 👍
great video!! i also love accuracy and value of the cci standard. My 10 rounder rotary mags drop free
Excellent shooting!!
Very relevant review lot of fun to shoot my RPR to.
Nice review. Thank you.
Thanks for such an in depth review. My RAR has the same issue with the mag not dropping out when pushing the release. Not a big deal to me so I haven’t tried a mod yet.
Excellent review! I subscribed to your channel! Thanks!
Great review.
good review mate.... thanks...
Nice video. I got one in 22 Mag and love it. Wish I had a range that you've got :-)
I'm glad to see REAL group figures. On the internet usually every one rifle shoot under 0.5 inch at 50 yards :) . thanks for the video good job
Good job man love the gun I just bought one appreciate the info
I have the ruger american rimfire target model with the bull barrel and laminate stock. Excellent rifle, very accurate. Ruger is making some good stuff these days.
Do you have the 22 or the 22wmr.
I have the 22wmr....man it is a freaking tackdriver!....I have literally hit empty 22 casings and shot the heads of roofing nails....its a little heavy with the wood stock but accuracy more than makes up for it....I'd like to see one put up against the rpr
I’ve noticed a few reviews where the mags of the bx15 and upwards are a looser fit. It makes for easier mag changing. However in the reviews I had watched, it was explained that the looser fit, allows the mag to droop on the leading edge, causing bruises on the projectile thus affecting accuracy.
I can see why you're using UTG mounts. After $490 for a (Burris M-Tac) scope, who can afford high dollar mounts. The CCI Standard Velocity ammo was a good choice. It seems to give me some good results. That was some good shooting. Just ringing the steel would be good enough for me. I just bought a CZ 455 to get into the precision game. I hope I can do as well as you. Good video; "thumbs up" from this Kentucky boy. Thanks foe the video.
Great video
Great video. I love your attention to detail. I’m going to pick up this rifle tomorrow. Thanks again and you have a new subscriber.
Jason Fair howed you go buy that 22 ?? Iv got one shot a goat and pigs with it
Thank you, i ran down and ordered one.....now the wait begins ...your review was pleasant to listen too with tons of good info. very impressive shooting ....a lot of reviews have bad audio and or bad camera ..or makes you wait forever for the interesting stuff....yours was informative and the 20 minutes flew by....THANK YOU......1 question how adjustable is the trigger...i like my triggers "airgun" light....by that i mean super light, is that possible with this platform right out of the box ?
Twenty of the 40 thousand views here are mine 😬. I love watching this video! Charlie Mike Brother!

These rifles are awesome with a good scope and a capable shooter who understands how bullets fly . 👍👍. Good guns from Ruger for a while now . The .243 version has been great . They don t make it anymore though so .308 , even better 😝. I love shooting them 2 liters from a ways . They really are pretty accurate at a distance like other good guns but it’s nice to have a gun that you know will hit at a distance .
Great review. I had just ordered my CZ 455 Precision Trainer when Ruger came out with the RPR or I would of had one myself. Fortunately, I have had the opportunity to shoot the RPR. I have found that my CZ likes Norma TAC 22 or Norma Match which makes me happy since it is a reasonably priced, quality rimfire round. At 25, 50 and 100 yards its been a sub MOA shooter for the most part. At 200 I'm consistently hitting a 4" x 4" steel plate; however my actual groupings on paper average between 3-4 inches. The challenge of reading the wind, knowing your ballistics on a particular rimfire round makes these trainers so useful, especially out to the longer range. You might give the Norma ammo a try. BTW, my CZ also liked the CCI standard. Again, great review and data collection.
Thanks for the feedback! I will get some Norma and try it out next time at the range.
GunsumerReports hi there, just got my tiger precision 22 today, and I failed to extract cci minimags, and cci quiet, and extracts only federal automatch. What should I do?
I have the same rifle and the CCI standard velocity is very accurate. The larger mag of course drops out on its own it weighed twice as much .
Very good shooting.
Perfect I just ordered medium not but 5 mins ago ;)
Thanks for the reply
Wish I had watched your video before "wasting" hours of my life watching content that just didn't hit the mark for what I was interested in. It's nearly impossible to find any dealer that carries the high tech Match Grade imported 22LR ammo in my area. So this was a perfect resource for alternatives. Great job putting this together and my what a perfect "range" you have. How big are your catfish and bass? LOL Thanks again.
A most excellent review, and great presentation! Thank you for making this excellent series, on the Ruger Precision Rimfire. I appreciate your inclusion of subsonic ammo, as this rifle would make a great suppressed varmint tool. Your testing and information, has helped a lot - thank you!
Gracias amigo good video
I would really like to see u shoot some of the Aquila sniper subsonic 60 grainers out of this. Going to be ordering some soon
James clark My marlin 795 disagrees wholeheartedly. Shoots sss like a champ. It doesn’t shoot as good out of my RPRimfire unfortunately, must be the microgroove rifling in the marlin.
Well done
I have also done a lot of BR 22 LR shooting. I settled on the CCI Standard Velocity for practice ammo. If you want the best ammo bar none, Get some of the Federal Gold Medal ULTRAMATCH. I bought Quite a bit, 3 years ago at $7 a box before too many people discovered it. The only place I see it now is Midwestgunworks.com at $18.
I use an old Remy 4x. A 4 digit serial number from the mid fifties. But also use an Annie, a Cooper, . and Winchester.
Also you might give some of the 10 bull targets a try.
Good work.
The 10 round mag sticking is the result of the nub on the back of the mag is too big in diameter . Take mag apart and put the nub with the axle out in a drill or drill press and with a medium grit hone reduce the diameter of the male nub until it goes into the release button all the way. Go slowly you don’t want to overdo it. Now mine works great in the10/22 and my Ruger American. Discovering this took me many hours of comparing every piece of the red follower mag to the black follower mag. Worth a try.
I epoxied a small piece of 3/8 aluminum tubing about 3/8 of an inch on the bottom of my short magazines. It gives me something to grab.
Excellent!
thank u.
I just bought one thx
The gong by the water! What more do you need? So therapeutic sound😎👍👌
Update on my ruger precision 22lr with suppressor. After a year. Love it😁. I have shot it out to 300 yards consistent results with cci std velocity.
Good video
My 10/22 loves Norma TAC-22 You should give some a try.
there is a slight variance in overall dimensions on the 10rnd mags some drop out some don't in the precision rifle, i've got new and older ones makes no difference weather they work or not ,i think the have multiple molds for the bodies being used. they all seem to drop free from my 10/22s
I would love to see the actual accuracy of this rifle, indoors with Lapua match ammo.
I need to get a rear bag for when i test ammo
The groups you got at 50 are about even with my Shultz and Larson target 22. That means good.
Nice pond🎯👍
Vortex machined precision mounts. Sight mark triple duty 3-14x42. Shooting off bipod with sand bag rear. (Your m-lock screw was too long and was connecting to your barrel. Check for marks. Will explain vertical deviations due to impact on barrel whip/harmonics)
I was consistent to 375 yards on a 3 inch target. I was using Geco .22lr ammo. I put prob 5k+ rounds down range. Using many different cartridges. CCI always was the gold standard for this rifle. Federal ultra match HV was a close second compared to the Geco match. But out to distances past 100 yards you have to use sub sonic ammo due to the inconsistencies of these light bullets going transonic. That’s why the Greco .22lr in my opinion out performed at ELD style .22lr ranges. Try these out. -clean that bore before
What a load of shit this guy is lmao
I have a Ruger American rimfire and it loves CCI standard velocity. I have the same problem releasing the 10 round mag as well. I’m not even going to bother using other ammo with the results I been getting with the CCI standards. 🇦🇺
lapua pistol king is even better in my rpr
CCI The pride of Lewiston Idaho!!!!
The paper mill is also quite proud worthy.
I only shot max 30 rounds so far.. No cleaning.. But after finishing zeroing my 17hmr rpr kept shifting right.. I kept having to dial it left.. Im hoping just breaking in and maybe scope got lose.. Didnt feel loose though
I just got my Ruger Precision rimfire. I tried the 10 round clip from my 22 takedown and it drops out just fine.The 10 round clip is just a tad larger like yours and drops out when I press the mag release.Thanks for the informative video, very well made.

@@bass779 lol was about to post this
📎🖇🤣😂
The 📎 falls out when you hit the mag release 🤔
Did you check to see if the mag falls out when you hit the 📎release 😳🤯😂🤣
I have the same issue with the 10 round mag. I can pull mine from the front though.
I have had the same mag issues not coming out smoothly. I have tried to interchange my Ruger Sr22 mags and my RPR mags, both 10/22 mags, but it cannot be done...go figure! Since both are 10/22 mags, they should work with either rifle.
13.36 sweet sound😁😁😁😁😁
The tight mag could be helping line up the bullet,without damaging the round,like a loose mag can.
So considering that I put here on the left coast would be better off with the BX 15 ?
I’ve had my rifle for quite a while now, frankly I’m not happy with it’s “precision “. My $99 marlin 795 outshoots it and I’ve tries 10+ different type of ammo. I might try bedding, and a barrel. I heard there is an updated stock as the first version has issues, might have to give ruger a call. Nice video as always.
its the ammo,pistol king is spot on,
That's a lot of supersonic crack for CCI standard velocity... I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO SEE THE TARGETS.
If it groups sub MOA, it's a rifle. If it groups larger than 1 MOA, it's a Boomstick. Unless a rifle is collectable, I would not keep it around if it's a Boomstick. Thank you for the encouraging results.
With my RPR, if you put any rearward pressure on the BX15 mag the front of the mag drops down slightly in the mag well causing the nose of the next round to jam against the mouth of the chamber, jamming the gun, and deforming the bullet. Any thoughts?
Use the 10rd mags with aluminum tape in receiver tightens up grouping at 100yds by 1/4 inch or some reports better.
finally, i see a good range test, thinking of purchasing this rifle, any advice on possible scopes, and ammo for a beginner?
Nikon prostaff 3-9x awesome scope at @$100
How many millimeters is your scope rings?
Nice video, What scope do you have on your RPR 22?
The 10 round mags don't drop out in any 22, 22WMF or 17MHR RPR rifles.
I've had trouble chambering the rounds. They always want to hang up, and I have to wriggle the bolt to work the cartridge into place. Any advice?
I have had the same issue with ammo not wanting to feed. I found a solution with opening up the Ruger factory magazine and inserting a shaved down 22lr shell in it (there is a TH-cam video on this). Also I've went on ahead and purchased Butler creeks magazine and it works like a champ.
Something about the phrase “A hair over a half” is messin with my melon!
How about the phrase "hair over a hole"
All of us have the same issue when reviewing .22 rimfire rifles----ammunition shortcomings. I have one lot number of Eley Ten-X which shoots bragging size groups. Other lots shoot very good groups---but not as good as this single lot number.. This is common--so much so that ho hum groups are the norm while exceptional groups are "now and then". I had a 10-22 which produced amazing groups with Remington Thunderbolt. Everything else--almost useless. I own a Savage FV-SR which shoots groups which embarrass my friend's $3000 custom built rifles. It is "off the shelf"
Afternoon sir, I seen in your awesome video and review that you are using UTG QD scope mounts. Quick question, are those low, med or high? I am about to purchase some for my rim fire but want to make sure I get the right ones.
Kevin Holden Those were high.
GunsumerReports Thank you for the info.
I am trying to decide between a RPRF and a Ruger American heavy barrel in the laminate stock. They are about the same price. BTW we have a .22 Sniper Match with targets starting at 50 yds and going out to 200 yds. 200 yd targets are 4" x 6".
Joe, which rifle to select may just depend on your overall preference of either a traditional style or pistol grip style rifle. I think they both would produce similar accuracy. There may be a slight advantage with the RPRF due to the adjustable stock and potential to replace the grip if desired. Also, you will probably be able to purchase aftermarket barrels for the RPRF and changing out the barrel is very easy. Hitting a 4"x6" plate at 200 yards should be a piece of cake provided you have good rifle support.
I will most likely go with the RPRF due to the ease of changing barrels. Waiting to see who comes out with one. Hopefully Lilja or Shilen. The only thing I don't like about the Precision Rifle is the flat bottom on the rear portion of the stock. That is not good for shooting off a rear bag. It would be hard to make elevation adjustments by sliding the bag back and forth. OTOH what the heck do I know? Ranger Class 5-70 Sniper.
Joe D Shaw makes a good barrel I heard
Are those med or high rings your using. What is the front bell size on that scope
Those are high rings with a 44mm objective (bell diameter 56.5mm). I could have probably used medium rings. The gap between the bottom of the objective bell and handguard is 0.45"
My 10rds hang-up a little also 👍
Se puede cambiar la culata a calculará de madera ??
I’ve had to contact Ruger (waiting to hear back from them) as the magwell in the polymer chassis on mine is out of spec width-wise and won’t allow any type of mag to be inserted without really forcing it. I’ll see what they say...
If anything sandpaper/file
You should go to Staples and buy some light or medium card file paper. It is firmer than most printer paper You holes will be much sharper.
Clear water lake Missouri...
What distance was this?
Why is your rear scope ring so far forward? You've got plenty of picatinny rail behind the ring and the scope has a clear 2 inches where you can slide the ring back for more and better stability... wtf am I missing here besides you just did it for the looks to match the front ring placement...
Mine drops every 10 rd mag I feed it...knock on wood hasn't let me down yet.
I do think my barrel is defective though. I cant get a single type of LR to group less than 3 inch.
Same mags same types of ammo in my 10/22 and I get sub 1/2 moa groups...so I know it's not me lol
Let me also note here in (explicit) NY I can only use 10 round mags
Most of those are exceptional groups from a Ruger Precision .22. Most of them will not produce these groups--usually the groups would be twice this size
What apps are you using n yor android devise?
Shooter
I’m having extraction issues with my rifle. Anybody experienced anything similar?
I know it's probably a long shot.but you said Clearwater lake.in Missouri?
1/4 “ off . 😂 yeah that’s a little high . It’s a bullseye dude . Good shots .
Excuse me.if I'm wrong but doesnt this rifle absolutely come ready for a bipod? That what m lok is for. I think you misspoke. You said you had to add m lok to mount the bipod. Did you mean you had to add a pic rail?
Just making sure before I buy this. But it's my understanding m lok is just modern day pic rail. All you had to do was buy an m lok bipod. I could be wrong though and that's why I'm asking. Want to make sure this purchase is one I absolutely want to make before I make it.
Thank you!
If you have or buy an M-Lok Bipod you just need to attach it to the handguard. If you have a bipod that is picatinny then you need to buy a short M-Lok to Picatinny converter and install that on the handguard, then add your pica bipod. That is what I had to do the other day with my new RPR.
My RPR is the most accurate rifle I have had. 50 yards with Center X, R50 or Federal Match..all holes touching. It doesn't like Tennex or anything by CCI. Go figure.
nope not yours, mine too.
Show me the groups. You're fired
Too much jibber-jabber
Bro. I would have thumbed up but that intro screeching was absolutely irritating. Sorry. I recommend ditching that garbage. About blew out my fking earbuds.
couldnt tell what distances were being shot or how big the targets were. lame review
