Air Gun Reviews: Ruger 10/22 Air Rifle

The Ruger 10/22 is among the most popular and widely available rimfires extant, and for good reason. It’s fun to shoot, affordably priced and utilitarian, making it a great companion at the range or in the field. Umarex Air successfully captures the essence of the 10/22 in its Ruger-licensed replica airgun. The semiautomatic Ruger 10/22 Air Rifle is powered by two CO₂ cartridges concealed within its stock, and fires .177-caliber pellets fed from a 10-round rotary magazine. In this segment of “Guns & Ammo TV,” Gun Tech Editor Richard Nance and Pro-Shooter Jim Tarr head to the range to wring out the Umarex Air Ruger 10/22.

Guns & Ammo Rifles & Optics Editor Tom Beckstrand was on location in Idaho where he pushed the limits of the 5.56 NATO cartridge in this segment of “Long Range Tech” for Guns & Ammo TV. Pairing a SIG Sauer MCX Virtus rifle loaded with Hornady's 73-grain ELD-M ammunition, Beckstrand attempted to ring steel set at 1,270 yards, an incredible distance for any 5.56-chambered rifle and beyond the typical range for an AR-15.
