Most rimfire rifles are built to a budget. The Christensen Arms Ranger is built the way Christensen builds everything else, with a carbon fiber tension barrel, a precision-machined aluminum receiver, and a carbon fiber composite stock. The result is a .22 WMR bolt gun that tips the scales at just 5.1 pounds, which you will appreciate every time you sling it over your shoulder for a walk to the back forty. The tan stock with black webbing looks sharp against the black anodized metalwork, and the palm swell grip and flat forend feel right whether you are shooting offhand at a squirrel or resting it on a bag.
The 18 inch carbon fiber barrel is the star here, and it is threaded 1/2×28 so adding a suppressor or muzzle device takes about thirty seconds. A .22 Magnum with a can on it is one of the most pleasant varmint setups you can put together. The action runs on dual locking lugs with dual ejectors for positive extraction, and the match grade Rem 700 style trigger breaks clean without the gritty pull you get on most factory rimfires. Up top, a 0 MOA Picatinny rail comes standard, so mounting your scope is straightforward, and sling studs are already in place. Christensen backs it all with their sub-MOA at 50 yards accuracy guarantee, which is not something you see often in the rimfire aisle.
The .22 WMR chambering gives you real reach and authority on varmints and small game well past where a .22 LR runs out of steam, and the flatter trajectory makes hits on prairie dogs and groundhogs a lot less of a guessing game. It feeds from a detachable 9 round rotary style magazine, and the two-position safety keeps things simple in the field. Whether it rides behind the truck seat, hikes into varmint country, or serves as a lightweight trainer that mirrors your centerfire hunting rig, this is a rimfire you will not outgrow.
Yes, the 18 inch carbon fiber barrel is threaded 1/2×28 from the factory, which is the most common rimfire thread pitch. That means suppressors and most muzzle devices thread right on without any gunsmithing. A suppressed .22 Magnum makes a fantastic quiet varmint rig.
This model ships with one 9-round detachable magazine and is compatible with Ruger 10/22 Magnum pattern rotary magazines. Keep in mind the .22 WMR version uses the magnum pattern mag, not the standard 10/22 mags that fit the .22 LR Ranger. Spares are easy to find, so grabbing an extra or two is a good idea.
Christensen Arms backs the Ranger with a sub-MOA at 50 yards guarantee, which is rare territory for a factory rimfire. The hand-lapped carbon fiber tension barrel and match grade Rem 700 style trigger do a lot of the heavy lifting there. Like most rimfires, it pays to test a few loads since individual barrels tend to favor certain bullet weights.
No iron sights or scope are included. The receiver has an integrated 0 MOA Picatinny rail, so you just need rings and the optic of your choice. A quality 3-9x or similar rimfire scope pairs nicely with the reach of the .22 WMR cartridge.
