There's a reason the BL-22 keeps showing up in conversations about the best rimfire lever guns ever made, and the Micro Midas takes everything good about it and trims it down for smaller frames. The 12 inch length of pull fits kids and shorter adults the way a full-size stock never will, and at 4 pounds 12 ounces with a 16.25 inch light sporter barrel, it comes up fast and stays steady without wearing anybody out. This is a genuine Browning through and through, with a machined steel receiver wearing a deep polished blue and a gloss black walnut stock that looks like it belongs on a rifle costing quite a bit more.
The standout feature is the 33 degree lever throw, one of the shortest in the business. You can cycle it with a quick flick of the fingers without ever breaking your grip, which makes follow-up shots fast for experienced hands and keeps things simple for a kid still learning the motions. The tubular magazine loads easily and locks up tight when pushed home, holding 11 rounds of 22 LR or any mix of 22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle. That flexibility is handy for quiet backyard practice with shorts or squirrel duty with standard velocity LR.
A steel blade front sight pairs with a folding adjustable rear, and the receiver comes grooved for scope mounts if younger eyes want a little help down the road. The recessed muzzle crown protects the rifling from dings, and the 1:16 twist barrel shoots better than most people can hold. Owners regularly report tight groups at 50 yards right out of the box.
Plenty of youth rifles get outgrown and sold off. This one tends to stick around. Built by Miroku in Japan with the fit and finish Browning is known for, the Micro Midas is the kind of 22 that teaches a new shooter the fundamentals, then keeps earning its spot in the safe as a compact camp and plinking rifle for years after.
It runs 22 Short, 22 Long, and 22 Long Rifle, and you can mix them in the tube. The tubular magazine holds 11 rounds of 22 LR, with more if you load shorts. That versatility is a big part of why the BL-22 has such a loyal following.
It's built around a 12 inch length of pull for smaller frames, but plenty of full-grown adults own and enjoy this rifle as a compact plinker and camp gun. The short lever throw and light weight make it fun for just about anyone. If the stock ever feels too short, a slip-on recoil pad adds length in seconds.
Yes, the steel receiver comes grooved for standard 3/8 inch rimfire scope mounts, so no drilling or tapping is needed. Out of the box it wears a steel blade front sight and a folding rear that adjusts for elevation, which work great for open-sight practice before adding glass.
It's built by Miroku in Japan, the same facility that produces many of Browning's rifles and shotguns. Miroku has a strong reputation for fit, finish, and machining quality, and it shows in the deep bluing and tight wood-to-metal fit on this rifle.
