Came up with a lot of same observations when using my Ruger American Rimfire Target. Nice to see someone else verifying it here.

[@coreyd1474]

I think its safe to say that this gun would take quite a bit of work to get down to minute consistently. trigger, bedding, so on you could probably get there.

[@billgraves1921]

Thanks for the good review, especially the emphasis on the ammunition. Unless a rifle is a total custom job, chambers can be a bit different, which in turn affects ammunition performance. These Rugers are all factory jobs, so it will be a chore finding an ammo that works well in one. I know, I am going through this right now. I've run quite a few high priced ammo through it so far with less than satisfactory results. Now for the funny part. I shot CCI Green Tag through it, and it was abysmal. I shot the same Green Tag out of my old Remington 512 Sportmaster (My Dad gave it to me 65 years ago) and it outshot the new Ruger. And there is a vintage Weaver scope on the Remington. Go figure.

[@coreyd1474]

i haven't owned anything that green tag has show well through. its actually a pretty popular topic of disussion on a lot of the comments i get and the majority of them say the same thing. i think we all wanted it to be good since 22 plinkster was pushing it but we forgot that they pay him lol

[@mikemagnum7987]

It's a weird world that .22 LR rifles live in! My CZ 452 American will put 2 of 3 Aguila Super Extra high velocity 40 grain bullets into the same hole at 55 yards, but throw #3 out. My 100 yard groups would all be .400 or less without that flier. I finally had enough and glass bedded the action and 2 inches of the barrel ahead of the receiver today! Hopefully, this brings it all together and solves that "flier" problem. It's just a rifle for small game hunting and recreational shooting fun, but my old faithful Marlin 39-A shoots .300 at 50 yards all day long and has been since 1976, so this new comer should be getting it done as well. We shall see. My son shoots the Long Range Hawkeye in 300 Win. Mag. and it does very well out there!

[@coreyd1474]

yea 22 really is a strange animal. when you get up in to the high dollar guns thast you start eliminating those flyers. I would have to see the .3 groups out of a lever gun, that's a little far fetched IMO.

[@bad_vaporizer]

Glad you got out to shoot even in the cold. It's always entertaining for me to see the results. Love it. My favorite ammo to focus on when you present your results are the eley target, cci standard, and sk standard. I was reading an article written by a shooter and he said that wolf ammo and the sk standard was made by the same company. If you compare the bottom of the casing of both of those you'll see the design is the same. Again thanks for another video. I was wanting to know what gun cleaning solvent you use. I was cleaning the other day using hoppes 9 and it stunk up the whole house. My wife was not happy and now I have to look for an alternative.

[@coreyd1474]

Yea lapua sk wolf all seems to be the same with slight variations. I use hopps #9 also but it's down in the basement so I don't get any complaints lol

[@richwilcox9564]

Nice review Corey. Thanks for putting in the effort on a cold winter day. Kudos for upgrading the trigger but what about g bedding the stock? Would that help tighten up the groups?

[@coreyd1474]

It probably would help a little I'm sure

[@axv129]

I just bought the RAR model 8372 (wildcat version) for my boys, but I must have got the cream of the crop rifle, it's shooting 0.9" at 100 yards, out of the box with Aguila HP. It may be even better than that in steadier hands.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

I've set up a RAR in 22 WMR decently, and wondering if I'd like to pop a Timney into it. Haven't run the gun much at all yet. Have no idea what brands it's going to like. I'm not afraid of spending some money on it. What's your opinion on Timney? Worth it, over the stock "precision" trigger? Also, do you know of a decent stock maker that offers a nice stock upgrade for the RAR chassis? The stock polymer stock is pretty flimsy/flexy. I'm running the 18" stainless.

[@coreyd1474]

the timney trigger is very nice, if money is no issue i think its a must. No on the stock i haven't really looked. its a fairly popular rifle so i'm sure there is at least a few options out there.

evening bro. ive spent countless hours researching and watching videos (including all yours) and im trying to decide between this and the rpr. i want to do alot of 50 - 200yd shooting and also want to do some considerably long range stuff and take it as far as my ammo and dope will allow. now that you own them both and have had time on them which would you keep if you could only keep one? and just as a side question if you dont mind, which do you prefer between this one and the tikka?

[@coreyd1474]

so from my experience so far the american is better than the rprf. my rprf had tons of FTE and the american has had ONE out of a few thousand rounds. However, the tikka is by far better than both. i would spend the extra money on the tikka and a chassis IMO.

Good video! I almost like what ruger is trying to do. I just don’t fully understand what they are doing. A precision rimfire, 2 target rimfire models, and no match chambers. I can’t argue against the precision rimfire bc it’s a good platform to build and they can be bought for $350. This rifles msrp is $600. I feel like there are better options and more accurate rifles for less out of the box. That is if this accuracy representation is the norm for these rifles. I could understand if they had 3 tiers of rifles as far as pricing and offered more features for each (match chamber). This imo is a “target” rifle in name only. Ruger is just getting a little too gimmicky for my taste these days. Just my opinion.

[@coreyd1474]

Yea I'm not quite sure what makes this "long range" and you are pretty much saying what everyone else is. They would have got it right with a Match chamber. Probably worth more around 400 bucks or so imo

[@blakebeene8188]

Tony H I think the savage mkii fvsr is a better option. It has a terrible stock but its cheap enough to get a Boyd’s stock to drop it in. The tikka t1x is around the same money for what u can probably buy this rifle. Cz 455s are still available for less Even the ruger precision rimfire is a better option. The aftermarket support is plentiful. I’d probably buy any of those over this rifle personally. Again just my opinion.

@@blakebeene8188 I know Tony and he's got an fvsr that shoots well and it's in a chassis. I actually have a Tikka t1x mtr and it's by far the best 22 I've ever shot. Also had a cz457 and it was so awful I sold it. Nothing can beat the Tikka IMO

[@blakebeene8188]

Corey D yea I’ve seen your 457 videos. It’s a tough break. I have a 457 varmint precision trainer that I had to work on a little to get to perform. Unfortunately since the 452 cz has kinda lost a lot in the qc department. The 457s are suffering the same early fate as the 455s were when they were first launched. Rushing to release and qc goes out the window. I’d trust a 455 at this point over a 457. I own a tikka t1x and agree nothing is better in the price point. The biggest problem with 22lr right now is everyone is chasing accuracy that just isn’t really there. With marketing being as it is ppl are bouncing around from rifle to rifle looking for something they’ll probably never find. Everybody is looking for Vudoo level accuracy in mass produced rifles. I’m guilty as well. I wish I would have bought a Vudoo and bought once and cried once. Lol I’m still considering it.

Cold and damp... Air density is high, not best for target shooting.

thanks for watching.

"You can't get that in a 70 dollar a brick ammo" cries in australian, where it's 150 a brick

[@coreyd1474]

Sorry it's so expensive over there lol I'd run guns to you aussies if I could lol

[@markcahoon2534]

Yeah, I was just going to comment about when he said a box that cost $6 was expensive, thats as cheap as chips here in Aus.

[@garyelderman1229]

If it's anything like my American .223 I'll pass at any price thanks.

[@coreyd1474]

i enjoy it but not sure it's worth quite so much

[@GoGreenMan]

You hardly talked about the gun. But good ammo review

[@coreyd1474]

its definitely nice, great feel. should be closer to the 400-450 price range though IMO.

[@crossedrifles6005]

Good looking rifle. Disappointing results. I really want Ruger to do better than this.

[@coreyd1474]

definitely room for improvement

[@richardmattix5322]

IT LOOKS LIKE RUGER NEEDS BETTER BARRELS ON THIER RIFLE.

[@coreyd1474]

or cut the MSRP in half would be just fine lol

[@Brentor14]

Man you think that’s expensive the lapua stuff is $34 a box and there’s still more expensive stuff

[@coreyd1474]

wouldn't that classify as expensive still though?

[@Brentor14]

@@coreyd1474 sorry it was supposed to also say here in Canada 🤦‍♂️ like in comparison on the same ammo .we get bent over the coals on guns and ammo there’s the conversion and then the mark up after import and then sales tax in my province atleast are 13%, RWS match is like 40 something for 50 rounds it’s really gone crazy since Covid and our communist admiring liberals tried to ban guns essentially and then put a carbon tax so everything that’s been shipped trucks, trains, boats, planes, so in the end it trickles down to the consumer

[@coreyd1474]

i thought you weren't even allowed to say the word gun up there any more without going to jail?@@Brentor14

[@Papa4Five]

You said it was cold and snowing, no wonder you couldn't get any good groups no matter the brand, quality or cost of ammo. Personally I think you wasted your time and what 500 rounds of ammo! Try repeating everything on a better day and bet you get better results....

[@coreyd1474]

a good 22 with consistent ammo will perform nearly the same in cold weather as hot weather.

[@pawcrawlowens8730]

You gun will shoot better with age

some yes some no.

@@coreyd1474 Pretty ordinary. but keep it up please.

[@D70340]

Its an assembly line mass produced rifle, i have yet to see a ruger 22 rifle ever shoot worthy of its price. You`re just wasting ammo with this gun. You`re chasing something you`ll never catch with this ruger american 22. I`ve bought a few of them, they all sucked. Put yourself behind a CZ 22 rifle, you`ll never look at another ruger rimfire again.

[@coreyd1474]

i agree this one was trash for the price but i liked my RPRF. already had a cz and it wasn't any better than this. b14r for the win.
