    Yesterday I picked up my Ruger Precision Rimfire Rifle. Today I took it to the range. On paper at 25 yards tighten it up until it was blowing out the bulls eye moved to the 50 yard and zero it there. Blew the bulls eye out there did the same thing at 100 yards . Nothing but awesome fun shooting and much easier on your pocket when it comes to ammo. A BSA Sweet 22 scope CCI Standard 22LR . If you do your part. Believe me Ruger has done their part. Once again Ruger has knocked it out the park.... 😊👍❤️💯🇺🇸

    Hey Plinkster, I've been following your videos for a few years now and have watched this video a few times over the years to see if a Ruger Precision Rimfire was what I really wanted. This past week I finally pulled the trigger and got one and am super glad I did. I put a Vector Sentinel X 10-40x50 scope on it and some Vortex rings. With CCI Standard Velocity Target and CCI Blazer it was putting them in very tight clover leaf pattern. When I loaded up some Lapua Center X, it was almost like one hole at 50; no joke. When I was done playing around getting it set up, I was shooting ground squirrels between 75 and 143 yards with American Eagle high velocity red box. I actually ranged them with a range finder. Nothing has been added to this rifle other than an optic and no suppressor; just straight out of the box. It is a keeper for sure.

    Picked one up a few weeks ago in OD green and have shot it quite a bit. First, it's an absolute joy to shoot, and the OD green is beautiful! I adjusted the trigger down to around 2 lbs and it's very crisp! Have around 300-400 rds through it so far with zero issues.
    Where this rifle really shines is its adjustability. I just got back from a weekend out in the wilderness with kids from 8 yrs old and adults. The stock adjustability made it possible for kids to cheek up and feel comfortable shooting using the scope. That alone was worth every cent.
    We were also able to free hand hit 2" steel targets out to 30 yards all day long. The RPR has easily become one of my favorite guns to shot, bar none! Throw some Aguila Colibri down range and make your buds think it's internally suppressed! Lol

    I watched this video back in January 2020 and headed down to my local shop to see if they had one. I already had an RPR in .308 with a Burris XTR II 5-25x50 and was looking for something to use as a less expensive trainer. They had one on the rack for $370. It came home with me that day. I ordered a Burris Fullfield E1 in 4.5-14x42, but the parallax on that scope only comes in to 50 yards, making a KYL (rimfire .25"-2") virtually impossible to hit at 25 yards. I wound up putting a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 6-24x50 on it and couldn't be happier. Not only is this rifle an absolute blast to shoot, it has also improved my shooting on the .308 as well. I have been able to consistently shoot single-hole 5-shot groups at 25-30 yards, and run the KYL target. Thanks for a great review!

    I've had couple 10/22's, and it's amazing how accurate they are out of the box. Then...your imagination is the limit for mods.
    I picked up an old MK1 pistol about a month ago. It is sooo much fun to shoot, and unbelievably accurate for a 5 1/2" barrel. I think I'm gonna step up and get a rifle now, and this is definitely a good option. Right now my target rifle is center-fire,
    6mm ARC and it's more like a 300 to 500 yard shooter. I want to get a rim-fire rifle and shoot 100-200 yards with it. I definitely like Ruger patterning this rifle to AR-15 design. will be checking that out.

    Thanks Plinkster ! I have been shooting my ruger american rimfire for the past year and a half and have fallen in love with bolt guns and throwing little pebbles at long range. My rimfire will hold a 3 1/2 to 4 inch group at a 100 yards. But now we have stepped into the world of match grade ammo ! And ammo seek says the gold match ammo is 9 cents a round. Now we have crossed the line on reloading. I can load 9 mm for 8 cents a round with making my projectiles. After shooting 1200 plus round a month I am ready to move up in cal and distance. So with all that said were do you stop with 22's and were do you move on. The cost of shooting is a game changer. And I am not a collector I am a shooter.

    This is the review I've been waiting for. My concern is that Ruger made a new receiver, stock and foreguard, then slapped on it the same old target barrel that's on the Ruger 10/22 Target rifle. At 50 yards, the accuracy looks good, but since Ruger seems to think this is worth shooting at 200 yards (the 30moa rail) I'd like to see what kind of long range accuracy it's really capable of.

      I have a savage model 10 stealth 6.5 and it’s awesome and I really enjoy reloading and tinkering trying to get that optimal load out. But definitely pick one of these Rugers up. My good friend and I both have them and in a way they are more fun and way cheaper to shoot than the creedmoor. Highly recommend. Plus it’s hard to find a range near me to even let the 6.5 stretch it’s legs. With this you only need a few hundred yards of range.

  • @MrHdlopez
    @MrHdlopez 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This rifle was designed as a trainer for the centerfire Ruger Precision Rifle and as a rifle package option for shooters that want to join the precision rimfire matches that are becoming very popular as of late, hence why it has all the bells and whistles needed for that style of competition. For the street price of $399-$450 is an outstanding value and price point for an American made product. The "standard" accuracy for a good rimfire rifle is 1/2" @ 50 yards, so this rifle can do what any other CZ can do with quality ammunition. The choice between a CZ or the Ruger Precision Rimfire would come down to what purpose the rifle would serve for a specific shooter. Personally I am a bolt action Savage rimfire shooter and have tried plenty of rimfire rifles including CZs and 10/22's and I would consider the Ruger Precision and the CZ rifles depending on the application.

    • @TheAsheybabe89
      @TheAsheybabe89 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      MrHdlopez but this rifle has a hot rod stock and trigger and still is only shooting competitive while using match ammo that any bone stock CZ455 I've ever shot, or even the CZ 512 auto loader can do. I've seen Savages shoot better as well, not to mention Anschutz or the fabled Bsa, or older Winchester and Remington match rifles. The RPR shoots better than average no doubt, but it ain't a match rifle. This rifle is more so for the tacticool crowd that wants every bolt gun to be in a chassis system. It is basically an American Rimfire in a better stock with a few minor tweaks. Even the Ruger precision centerfire isn't anything special in the accuracy department. In a value of accuracy per dollar consideration, count me solidly in the CZ and Savage rimfire fan camp.

    • @TheAsheybabe89
      @TheAsheybabe89 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      MrHdlopez of the local variety it is typically a few guys shooting Anschutz, occasionally a Cz or Savage laying waste to everyone else. I'm not sure which targets you are referring to, but we do a variety here. Ranging from a normal target, to the common target of a sheet of dots, to the shoot til you miss at progressively smaller targets. But maybe you are talking about something different? Our matches are usually called rimfire benchrest and not "precision" specifically. In either regard, this rifle will be regularly outclassed (assuming equal shooters) by most every Anschutz, most CZs, and a good portion of Savages. God help whoever buys this Ruger if they shoot against something like a Cooper rifle.

    • @MrHdlopez

    @robertcanup6151 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For long range shooting with a .22lr I suggest looking at Aguila Super Extra Plated ammo. Very consistent, reliable, Ely primed ammo, and the bullet has the highest ballistic coefficient of any .22 boxed ammo I have seen, with a G1 .197 coefficient. Beyond 300 yards it is moving faster than a Velocitor - even though the Velocitor starts out with an extra 200 fps muzzle velocity. The Aguila has a maximum range of 2760 yards - which is 1 mile plus 1000 yards.

    IMPRESSIVE shooting! This is a heavy rifle! (Compared to other .22 cal rifles)

    With the proper scope, it can be a very precise rifle.

    I have a Tac-Sol barreled 10/22 that shoots very similar to this rifle but was looking for a bolt gun for my Elite Iron suppressor and chose the Ruger Precision Rimfire. It shot right at 36 MOA right out of the box....yes, 18" groups at 50 yards. Sent it back to Ruger and they said it had a bad crown, so they recrowned it. That helped a bit, it was now a 12 MOA rifle, 6" @ 50 yrds, sent it back again and they said the barrel was bad, rebarrelled and now it is a 6 MOA rifle...this was last spring, it hasn't left the safe since and I won't peddle it to some one else and pass the problem on. Guess I just have to eat it and keep using the 10/22 even though it is not as quiet. Still looking for a bolt gun that will shoot like every other person one the planet has.....

    In bench rest matches such as the Super Shoot and most other precision rifle matches group size is measured "center to center". This is done using calipers. First you measure from the extreme outside edges of the group then subtracting 1 bullet diameter. Example: outer edge to outer edge measures .750. Now subtract .223 (for .22lr)(.224 for ctr fire) Your group size is .527. Using a 30 cal. in this example would be: .750 - .308 resulting in a center to center group size of .442.

      The XT-22 might be a better comparison being that it's also bolt action but I agree. Precision- that's a word IMO that Ruger probably should not use. Maybe the Ruger Reliable Rifle? The RRR? It still might be an attractive option for those that like the tailor-able aspect of it, or that also have the RPR in a bigger bore that might want a practice rifle.

      Probably need a barrel designed for the hyper velocity rounds. I was excited by the Stinger rounds when they came out but found they were not inparticular useful. My favorite hunting round is the standard velocity. Subsonic has less crack and better accuracy. I hunt mostly rabbits for my supper and it makes them very dead.

    Quick question: what bench rest are you using there? I’ve always just gone prone or once in a while in a modified supported position using vehicles or other cover, but I’ve been thinking about buying a portable bench rest and am leaning toward the Caldwell lite version. Any insight about your preference would be greatly appreciated.

    Here's my 2 cents, take it for what its worth.. ill start off by saying i own multiple ruger firearms and think highly of their company. That being said i am disappointed in the accuracy that this gun performed.. I have a CZ 455 in 22lr and it shoots much better groups than this. Both the CZ and this Ruger are in the same price range of $400-$450. Ill say that ammunition does make a difference but typically, with decent ammunition such as CCI mini mag, Federal Champion, and even Aguila SE, i regularly shoot 1/2 groups at 50 yards. I also have tested some of the higher end ammunition such as Eley, and Federal Gold Medal with less than 1/2 groups give or take. I understand this isnt a world class Anschutz competition rifle worth $2000 but never the less it should shoot head to head with a CZ 455 but im not seeing that.

    • @JayKayKay7
      @JayKayKay7 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      HOFERBOY71 You are correct. I have a CZ (big fan) 455 Tacticool with a Specter2 can. The gun can shoot better than I can see at my age. Aspirins are nothing.But, I think Ruger has hit another Home Run with this, the 9mm Carbine, etc.

    • @jameshealy4594
      @jameshealy4594 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Agreed, I don't find those groups particularly impressive. I did have a 455 that shot at least that well with cheaper ammo, never really put target loads through it. I think we'll have to wait and see until there are more of them out there, rimfires can be pretty finicky from one to the next.

    • @jameshealy4594
      @jameshealy4594 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also, it looks to me like Plinkster is measuring the groups incorrectly with the ruler, going from the very end - which is not where the scale starts. The green tag is well over a half inch and the Federal looks like about .35" (though if the flyer was all him it's a great group).

    • @HOFERBOY71
      @HOFERBOY71 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jay Kaye no doubt the rifle is most certainly appealing. When they announced the rimfire in their precision series i was excited as all get-up but having seen this im no longer interested. If ruger can keep the same price and throw a better barrel on these rifles to prove they are worthy of being on their precision line, then ill buy one, untill then ill stick to my CZ that shoots tighter groups and has an interchangeable barrel system.. lol

    • @HOFERBOY71
      @HOFERBOY71 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      James Healy yes rimfires will be choosy about the ammunition it eats, totally agree. Took me awhile to find ammunition that my gun shot good and consistent (all 40 grain) cci mini mag, federal, aguila se. But he said he has spent time shooting this rifle, testing it, so he should have found ammo that shot much better than presented.
