Rossi Rio Bravo 22LR Lever-Action Rimfire Rifle with Black Synthetic Stock

About this product

If you have been shopping for a lightweight, fast-handling plinker that feels like a classic but works like a modern tool, the Rossi Rio Bravo 22LR lever-action rimfire rifle with black synthetic stock deserves a close look. This rifle bridges the gap between old-school cowboy action and practical, everyday shooting. It chambers the ubiquitous .22 Long Rifle round, meaning you can spend hours at the range without breaking the bank. The lever action is smooth right out of the box, and the synthetic furniture shrugs off rain, mud, and rough handling. Whether you are teaching a new shooter or just want something fun to run steel with, this Rossi delivers.

Overview

The Rossi Rio Bravo is a side-gate loading lever-action that holds 14 rounds of .22 LR in a full-length tubular magazine. It comes fitted with a black synthetic stock and forend, which keeps the overall weight down to just over four and a half pounds. The barrel is an 18-inch tapered design with a recessed crown, and the rifle wears a fiber-optic front sight for quick target acquisition. At its core, the Rossi Rio Bravo 22LR lever-action rimfire rifle with black synthetic stock was built for reliability and speed, not for show. The action cycles short, long, and high-velocity .22 LR ammunition without complaint, and the cross-bolt safety gives you a familiar manual of arms if you are used to shotguns or bolt actions.

Features & Specs

• Action and Capacity: Smooth lever-action cycling with a 14-round tubular magazine. Side-gate loading lets you top off without unloading the tube.
• Sights and Barrel: Fiber-optic front sight for low-light visibility. 18-inch blued steel barrel with a 1:16 twist rate, optimized for standard velocity .22 LR.
• Stock and Ergonomics: Black synthetic stock with a straight grip and sling swivel studs. The forend has subtle texturing for a secure grip in wet conditions.

The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounts if you prefer optics, though the factory iron sights are perfectly usable for plinking and small-game hunting. The overall length sits at 36.5 inches, making it compact enough for a truck gun or a young shooter. Rossi uses a simple but robust action that has been tested on thousands of rimfire rifles. This is a field-proven design, not a safe queen.

Who It’s For

This rifle is a natural fit for three types of shooters. First, the budget-conscious enthusiast who wants a reliable lever-action without spending north of $500. Second, the instructor or parent looking for a low-recoil training tool that teaches manual cycling and sight alignment. And third, the small-game hunter who needs a quiet, lightweight rifle for squirrels and rabbits. The Rossi Rio Bravo 22LR lever-action rimfire rifle with black synthetic stock shines in all these roles because it is simple to maintain, cheap to feed, and tough enough to get banged around in a truck or a gun safe. If you already own a centerfire lever gun, this .22 makes a perfect companion for cheap practice.
